Job Description
Are you an experienced Registered Veterinary Nurse looking to join a friendly and dynamic team on a fixed term contract? If so, we have an exciting opportunity for you here at Southend-on-Sea!
This role is perfect if you’ve had some time out and would like to dip your toe back into nursing, or if you’re currently a locum but considering some stability for the remainder of this year financially. Maybe you’d just like to work in a great practice with a fantastic team and see where it takes you!
Whatever your reasons, we’d love to hear from you!
You’ll be joining a hard-working and inclusive team who are passionate about being at the heart of the local community. We have a fantastic non-clinical team to support the client journey, freeing up our Nurses to carry out their roles effectively.
We are a standalone practice based on the Southchurch Road in Southend-on-Sea. We see a wide range of clients including exotics and have a fantastic range of equipment to provide the best level of care, including keyhole surgery, orthopaedics, ultrasounds and nurse clinics.
We are looking for an RVN with excellent communication skills, who is confident in all areas of general nursing. You’ll have great communication and organisation skills and take pride in working to a high standard. They key to your success will be your ability to embrace all aspects of the Veterinary Nurse role, delivering excellent patient and client care.
This position is fixed term, from September 2025 for 9 months initially to cover maternity leave, with the potential to extend. Your working pattern will be Tuesday – Friday (8.30am – 7pm) and 1 in 5 Saturday mornings. No Sundays or Mondays and no OOHs!
In addition to a competitive salary based on experience, we offer all the benefits you’d expect from a major employer (pension, healthcare, paid memberships etc.) plus a few more, such as excellent career progression, exclusive lifestyle and shopping discounts (up to 20% off at Pets at Home).
