Registered Veterinary Nurse – Join a Supportive, Fun & Forward-Thinking Team | Oxfordshire Region
We’re working with a thriving, independent-minded small animal practice in a beautiful rural location in the Oxfordshire area, and they’re looking to welcome a passionate and experienced Registered Veterinary Nurse into their close-knit team.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a nurse who loves variety in their work, enjoys clinical freedom, and wants to be part of a genuinely friendly and supportive environment.
The Practice
This is a modern, RCVS-accredited practice that blends a traditional community ethos with forward-thinking clinical care. Established several decades ago, the practice has built a loyal client base who are open to gold-standard workups and value high-quality service.
You’ll be joining a facility equipped with all the essential tools—digital x-ray, ultrasound, in-house lab, Class IV laser—and a collaborative team of vets, RVNs, and support staff who enjoy sharing ideas and having a good laugh in between cases. It’s a practice where the kettle is always on and teamwork is truly at the heart of how they operate.
The Role
-
Full-time, 38 hours across 4 days per week
-
1 in 4 Saturday mornings only (short shifts)
-
No out-of-hours, and you’ll always leave on time
You’ll enjoy a balanced role that includes time in theatre, inpatient care, and consultations. The team are looking for someone confident, organised, and collaborative—someone who enjoys engaging with clients and can contribute to a positive working culture.
This would suit a nurse who thrives in general practice, is proactive in their approach, and values being part of a small, well-bonded team where your voice is heard and appreciated.
What’s on Offer
-
A competitive salary in line with experience (circa £30,000+)
-
Generous annual leave entitlement
-
Funded CPD with flexibility to pursue your interests
-
Paid professional memberships
-
A strong focus on wellbeing, development, and career progression
-
A range of lifestyle and retail benefits
-
Excellent support structure and regular clinical development opportunities
