We are seeking an experienced Head RVN to join our team at Market Harborough on a full-time basis.
We are looking for an individual with strong leadership skills, who is flexible, reliable and able to work well within the team. They must be a positive and supportive leader to their colleagues and team whilst actively promoting and developing the practice.
We welcome applications from candidates who are keen to be involved in all aspects of small animal veterinary nursing. This role will suit a confident RVN who is enthusiastic, forward-thinking and highly motivated, driving the business forward by bringing new ideas and motivation to the current close-knit team.
A number of our RVNs are certificate holders; we actively encourage and fund these. In addition to a generous personal CPD allowance, we hold regular in-house CPD days for the whole team to continually improve and advance our standards. The whole team has access to Vetstream.
We pride ourselves on providing our own out-of-hours service to our clients at our Uppingham practice, where we are currently seeking hospital status through the RCVS practice standards scheme. With dedicated night nurses, there are no weeknights on call in this role. However, participation in our 1:5 Saturday and Sunday day rota (though currently 1:7), along with an equal share of bank holidays is expected.
Our full-time nurses work 4 days a week on an 8:30am – 6:30pm shift pattern with paid lunch breaks. Rotating between inpatient, theatre and consulting roles throughout the week, nurses can get involved in a varied caseload of small animals.
