Overview

Registered Veterinary Nurse at Pet Doctors Felpham – up to £30,000 pro rata DOE

Are you a Registered Veterinary Nurse that enjoys a varied role? Want to join a practice that will take an active part in progressing your skillset and career?

As part of the Pet Doctors Hub, the role is based across Felpham and Rustington branches with occasional shifts at other branches. Our nursing team are encouraged to work with autonomy while receiving support as required. Your duties will include nurse consultations, radiography, phlebotomy, and anaesthesiology. We encourage individual interests, and there is scope for the right RVN to run their own clinics in practice.

At the Rustington and Felpham branches, you will be supported by an incredible team of vets, nurses, and patient care assistants, with a strong emphasis on work-life balance and fair shift patterns. Both Felpham and Rustington are coastal villages with a warm, family feel. This is a fixed-term contract to cover maternity leave.

In your new role you will be working 40 hours per week. The role will be based at Rustington and Felpham but you may be occasionally asked to work at other branches when needed. There is a 1:5 Saturday rota, which may be based at Rustington or Chichester sites.
