We are looking for a Registered Veterinary Nurse to join our team here at White Cross Vets, Eccleshill for a full or part time permanent position.
Fix or flex – find your perfect balance
We know that everyone has demands and priorities outside of their career and we want to make it brilliantly easy for you to strike the right balance. Whether you are looking to fix or flex your work patterns, we can find the right solution for you. Our fulltime Veterinary Nurses will work 37.5 hours over 5 days, with a share of Saturdays, with TOIL back. There is no out of hours requirement for this role.
About the practice
Eccleshill practice is in a great location, easily accessible by public transport (there's even a bus stop right outside the practice!). There's lots of shops in the local area for you to grab lunch at, including a particularly good fish and chip shop and a lovely small cafe serving warm sandwiches.
Our practice has a Dental x-ray, main x-ray, new ultrasound machine, in-house laboratory, in-house Sedivue for urine analysis and we're currently completing our ISFM Cat Friendly Clinic status. We promote an open dialogue and focus on supporting each other at work.
About the team
We currently have 3 Veterinary Surgeons, 5 Registered Veterinary Nurses and 1 Student Nurse along with a fabulous team of Receptionists. We are open to discussing any CPD you would like to complete or if you're currently working towards one.
Every decision related to the practice is made after consulting the team and getting feedback from everyone involved. During our wellbeing afternoons we built lanterns, made terrariums, painted portraits of each other and made Valentine’s card to tell our colleagues how much we appreciate them. We also had Santa Claus visiting the practice as a Christmas special. We regularly organise meals out, last year we went axe throwing together. Don't just take it from us
'As a current employee and one who has worked for the practice for over two years, I feel very lucky to have a Job here. The ongoing and unconditional support is better than any I have received elsewhere. The team have a great relationship and happy to help each other in times of need. I honestly could not imagine working anywhere else!'
