Description: 

Are you an RVN looking for a new challenge in a thriving practice where you are encouraged to develop your clinical interests and apply the skills you've trained so hard to acquire? We have an exciting opportunity for a qualified nurse to join our team in Milton Keynes, supporting pets (and their humans) by delivering outstanding care to the highest standard.

Why Join Us:
Professional Development:
We actively encourage all of our RVNs to take on Schedule 3 responsibilities such as dental work, X-rays, and lab work. We provide a generous CPD allowance for your personal development.
 
Supportive Team: Our people are a priority, and this is reflected in our inclusive and welcoming team of almost 40 colleagues, where the focus is as much on our own emotional wellbeing as in putting pets first.
We have regular practice and nurse meetings every 4 weeks and we actively encourage all our colleagues to develop their individual areas of clinical interest. We regularly recognise individual customer service and teamwork with dedicated awards and rewards. Outside of work we have regular social gatherings and events throughout the year.
 
State-of-the-Art Facilities: We love new equipment! (In house K-laser, HT Vista, dental x-ray, syringe driver, flexible and rigid endoscopy, nerve stimulator, laparoscopy, fantastic Logic R8 ultrasound) and we have plenty of space (6 consult rooms, 2 theatres and prep rooms and a well-equipped and sociable colleague room). We're also very excited to be expanding our practice in the summer, and will be proud to become the largest in store Vets for Pets in the UK!
 
Benefits: As a locally-owned part of a supportive group of practices, we offer a wide range of colleague benefits, such as great discounts on a range of goods and services, and in Pets at Home stores; company pension and health insurance.
 
Work-Life Balance: We can offer flexible hours with weekends on a rota basis and no OOH. With a central location in a modern retail park, a train station nearby and free onsite parking, we are easily accessible if you are commuting, or else why not take advantage of our cycle to work scheme?
 
What We Offer:

  •  Competitive salary starting from £28,000 DOE plus quarterly financial bonus based on whole practice turnover.
  •  Dedicated CPD allowance including 3 full days. (£500 pa)

Pets just see people. They aren’t biased and they don’t discriminate. We take our inspiration from pets, and we value and respect difference in all its forms. Our aim is to reflect the diversity of the communities we operate in, and every colleague can help us achieve this. We encourage our people to be themselves so even if your skills and experience don’t perfectly align, if you think you can make a unique contribution through your values and behaviours, we want to hear from you!
