Are you a compassionate and driven RVN looking for a new challenge in a supportive and progressive environment? Myerscough Veterinary Group is currently seeking a Registered Veterinary Nurse to join our team at our Oswaldtwistle branch on a fixed-term contract. We are committed to delivering exceptional pet healthcare and outstanding client service, and we're looking for someone who shares our passion.
This is a fantastic opportunity to develop your consulting skills within a busy, friendly, and forward-thinking practice. Our clinic environment is fast-paced but rewarding, with plenty of support and opportunities to grow. As part of this role, you'll also spend one to two days per week working in First Opinion Prep or Theatre at our hospital, giving you the chance to continue developing your surgical nursing skills alongside your consulting work.
About Us And Our Team
Myerscough Veterinary Group is proud to offer excellent facilities, with access to advanced diagnostic tools and treatment options. Our practices are well-equipped and supported by highly trained and experienced veterinary nurses who ensure our patients receive the very best in care. With 11 local branches, we're proud of our loyal client base and the friendly, community feel we foster at every site.
We offer both first opinion and referral services, with specialists across a variety of disciplines including internal medicine, surgery, anaesthesia, and critical care. Every role within the team is varied and interesting - and if you're keen to spend time in our hospital setting, previous referral experience isn't required. We provide full training and support for the right candidate. What matters most to us is enthusiasm, a strong work ethic, and a team-oriented mindset.
At Oswaldtwistle, you'll also be supported by our dedicated clinic nurse team who run a wide range of nurse-led services. These include weight clinics, new pet consultations, wellness screens, tiny paws sessions, and hearing clinics. We have dedicated consulting spaces and run clinics from Monday to Saturday, with a strong focus on preventative care and building lasting relationships with our clients.
Working Hours
The role is full-time, covering 38 hours per week over four days, with one in four Saturdays based at our RCVS-accredited hospital. There may also be opportunities to provide support across our wider network of local practices, helping you maintain a broad range of general nursing skills.
What We're Looking For
We are seeking a Registered Veterinary Nurse with strong consultation and anaesthesia skills, along with excellent organisational abilities. You should be confident working independently in nurse clinics, as well as collaborating within a team environment. Experience or interest in specialist clinics and preventative healthcare would be a welcome bonus.
A working knowledge of stock control and ordering is also advantageous, and due to occasional travel between practices, a driving licence would be beneficial.
