Job Details

Halifax Vets4Pets is a long-established and continually growing first opinion and referral small animal practice who are looking for 2 additional veterinary nurses to join the team. With a salary up to £30k, the chance to work alongside two experienced Advanced Practitioners in Small Animal Surgery and the rest of our fantastic team, this is an opportunity not to be missed.

We are a well-established first opinion practice who have been under the same leadership for the past 20 years, and as well as looking after our local clients, our highly experienced surgeons offer orthopaedic and soft tissue referral services across West Yorkshire, Lancashire & Humberside. In practice we also offer additional services such as restorative therapy and laparoscopy procedures.

 

Upon joining us, you will work alongside our 5 vets, 5 RVNs and 1 SVN, 2 VCAs, and a team of friendly experienced client care advisors. We are a very happy, well-organised and supportive team, and if you have the same beliefs in teamwork and providing excellent patient care, we would love to welcome you to our team! 

 

We are looking for a forward-thinking, experienced Veterinary Nurse who is prepared to help with both first opinion and referrals and is confident working unaccompanied. We also place importance on building strong relationships with our clients and their pets. Experience of referral work isn’t essential – you will receive all the training needed.

 

This role is full-time of 40 hours over 4 days with a set day off in the week, 1 in 3 Saturday mornings (09:00-12:00), no OOH. 

 

In addition to a competitive salary of up to £30k (DOE), we offer a generous CPD allowance, great colleague support in our recently refurbished practice as well as the other generous benefits package you would expect from a market leader within the profession.

•    20% off at the Pets at Home group (including The Groom Room and Pets at Home)
•    25% off at Halifax Vets4Pets
•    30% off Pets at Home own brand products
•    Access to high street discounts via our ‘Reward Hub’ app
•    Access to services within the Retail Trust such as vetlife support
•    RCVS, BVA & VDS fees are paid for
•    5.6 weeks annual leave allowance (incl bank holidays) which rises to 6.6 weeks on successful completion of 2 years’ service
•    Contributory Pension Scheme

Locally owned practices with a world of support

At Vets for Pets we’re a network of practices that are owned and managed by the practice owners that run them. Because they’re locally owned, each practice has the freedom to serve patients and clients the way it thinks is best. 

But crucially, being locally-owned also means enjoying a truly team-spirited atmosphere. We want all our colleagues to build lasting relationships with practice owners and team members as well as patients and clients.

And because we’re also part of a wider group, you’ll get all the support you need when you need it. That means state-of-the-art facilities, high quality CPD, financial stability and a real sense of job security.

With our framework, we’ve made it simpler and easier for you to help patients and clients live happier, healthier lives together. It’s about making the most of your expertise and bringing this to life in practise while being safe in the knowledge that you’re looked after too. Simply put, we offer locally owned practices with a world of support.

Flexibility & Wellbeing
You tell us which hours you want to work, and we’ll do everything we can to make it happen. With us, you could enjoy a better work-life balance where flexibility and wellbeing come first.

Training & Development
We offer great training programmes, plus fully funded CPD, leadership courses and access to our group’s learning curriculum. We’ll also support you if you’re interested in owning a practice. With our wealth of resources, it’s easy to build your skills and develop your career.

Local Practices
With us, no two practices are the same. We’re deeply rooted in our local communities and we want you to really get to know your patients and clients locally.

Being part of the Pets At Home Group
Being part of Vets for Pets means you’ll be part of our network of locally owned practices. Our practices are located across the country and are owned and run by our Joint Venture Partners (JVPs). Our Joint Venture Partnership model is unique and gives everyone the best of both worlds. Working within one of our practices you’ll get to work with the JVP who has the clinical freedom and autonomy to do things their own way.

As we’re part of a large respected organisation you’ll also enjoy the benefits of being part of a wider PLC Group. This means we can give you greater stability and job security during these uncertain times and beyond. 

What’s more, we’ve worked hard to make sure everyone in our group can take part in a fun, friendly, professional and inclusive culture that allows you to bring your whole self to work and be at your very best.
