Job Description

Experienced Registered Veterinary Nurse

About us

At Cheltenham Vets4Pets, we're proud to be more than just a veterinary practice. We're a close-knit, supportive team that combines excellent clinical care with genuine compassion for both our patients and their owners. Located within Gallagher Retail Park, our practice has built a strong reputation within the local community for delivering high-quality care and exceptional client service.

Led by Clare Rogers, our experienced team includes vets and nurses with a wide range of clinical interests and additional qualifications, spanning medicine, surgery, dentistry, feline nursing, behaviour, anaesthesia and analgesia. Our collaborative approach means everyone has a voice and is encouraged to contribute to the continued success of the practice.

We also benefit from advanced diagnostic capabilities, including ultrasound and cardiac ultrasound services, giving our team the opportunity to work up a wide variety of interesting medical cases and develop their skills across multiple disciplines.

Life at Cheltenham

What really sets us apart is our people.
Many of our colleagues have been with the practice for several years and have progressed their careers internally, demonstrating the supportive environment we've worked hard to create. Our nursing team includes certificate holders and those with specialist interests, creating fantastic opportunities to learn from experienced colleagues every day.

We're passionate about developing our team and supporting individual career goals, whether that's pursuing further qualifications, developing leadership skills, or expanding clinical responsibilities. Just as importantly, we genuinely enjoy working together and pride ourselves on maintaining a welcoming, family feel throughout the practice.

The Role

This role is perfect for an experienced RVN who is ready to take the next step in their career. We can offer Full time or Part Time 20 – 40 hours with various shifts in 1 in 4 weekends. The weekly shifts will vary between the hours of 8.00 am and 7.00pm.

You will play a key role within the nursing team, taking ownership of your clinical work while helping to support and mentor student and newly qualified nurses. You'll work closely with our vets and nurses across consultations, inpatient care, anaesthesia, theatre and nurse-led clinics, helping to drive clinical standards and patient care throughout the practice.

This is a development opportunity that provides the platform to build leadership and mentoring experience without stepping away from hands-on nursing. Whether your future ambitions lie in practice leadership or clinical specialism, we'll support you in getting there.

What we are looking for

We're looking for a Registered Veterinary Nurse who:

  • Has solid post-registration nursing experience
  • Is confident across all aspects of nursing duties
  • Enjoys supporting and developing colleagues
  • Demonstrates excellent patient and client care
  • Has strong communication and organisational skills
  • Brings positivity, professionalism and a team-focused approach
  • Has ambitions to further develop their clinical or leadership career

What We Offer

  • Competitive salary starting at £30,000 dependent on experience
  • Pension scheme
  • RCVS fees paid
  • Generous CPD allowance
  • Support towards certificates and further qualifications
  • Career development and progression opportunities
  • Exclusive colleague discounts and benefits
  • Vets for Pets rewards and recognition programmes
  • Uniform provided
  • Supportive, experienced and friendly team environment

Why Join Us?

We're looking for someone who wants to be part of a practice where development is genuinely encouraged, ideas are welcomed, and colleagues support one another to be their best.

If you're an experienced RVN ready to take the next step and join a practice that invests in its people, we'd love to hear from you.

For more information, please contact us at southvets@vets4pets.co.uk and a member of the team will be in touch within one working day.

We take our inspiration from pets in embracing people from all walks of life, and we value, respect and celebrate difference. We encourage our people to be their best selves so that we can create a better world for Pets, our Planet, and People. Even if your skills and experience don't perfectly align, if you believe you can make a unique contribution through your values and behaviours, we'd love to hear from you.
