Nestled in the picturesque green space Between Brentwood and Romford in Essex, a thriving and proudly independent small animal practice is on the lookout for a dedicated Registered Veterinary Nurse.

This expanding clinic, under new management, is on an exciting journey towards becoming a hospital in the coming years. Join a small, passionate team that genuinely loves what they do, in an environment that is supportive, flexible, and down-to-earth. Here, work-life balance is not just a promise but a reality.

As an RVN, you will be an integral part of the team, confidently handling all core responsibilities including anaesthesia, inpatient care, and lab work. This role is designed for someone who is ready to dive in and make a difference. The position involves a flexible Monday to Friday rota depending on your preference. Your input will be invaluable in shaping how the practice evolves. Occasionally, you may be required to care for hospitalised patients overnight, with on-site accommodation available for your convenience.

Flexibility is key, and you can choose between working four days a week with 10-hour shifts, or five days a week with 8.5-hour shifts. Weekends are 1:4 9am till 3pm. The benefits are plentiful: a competitive salary, CPD allowance, statutory holidays plus your birthday off, extra Christmas leave, and ample free parking. The clinic boasts a beautiful garden, perfect for taking breaks and enjoying some fresh air. 

The location is ideal, with a 25-minute walk from the Train Station and easy access from the M25 and A12. The stunning grounds provide a serene setting where you can even enjoy your lunch outside.

The ideal candidate is an RCVS-registered RVN who is self-motivated, confident in clinical work, and team-oriented with a positive attitude. If you are excited about being part of something that is growing and evolving, this role is perfect for you.

Offering a salary range of £29,000.00-£33,000.00 per year, additional benefits include company events, employee discounts, a health and wellbeing programme, and excellent transport links.

This full-time, permanent position is based on-site, providing the perfect blend of professional growth and personal satisfaction.

For further information, an informal chat, or to apply, please email Debbie Loding at Debbie@vettedrecruitment.co.uk or 07384 551799 today.
