Our ideal candidate is an experienced nurse who is confident in all aspects of routine nursing. Your day-to-day duties will include anaesthesia, in-patient care, nurse-led clinics, and wider clinical skills. You will be passionate about preventative health care and an interest in client education and using social media to provide this, would be useful. 

We are happy to accept both full/part-time applications for this role, with an equally shared weekend rota.

Across the team, we have a range of interests including orthopaedics, soft-tissue surgery, and imaging. Whilst you will need to be competent in all aspects of veterinary nursing, we allow our teams interests to flourish and grow.

Company

The Bilton Veterinary Centre has been at the present location for over 50 years.  For many years it was known by its former name of “Furber and Lloyd-Griffiths” and became The Bilton Veterinary Centre after the retirement of Mr Frank Lloyd Griffiths in 2001. 

The current directors are Mrs Claire Gardner and Miss Rose Bolan who took over the reins when Mark Furber returned in 2005.

Up until 2009 we were a mixed practice involved with all aspects of pets, farm animals and horses but once senior farm vet Mr Hipkins retired we have decided to concentrate on providing a first class ”small animal” service. 

We currently have 5 full time veterinary surgeons and 7 fully qualified veterinary nurses.
