We are recruiting for a Registered Veterinary Nurse to complete our teams across Medivet Greenwich and Lewisham, and we want to hear from you!

You’ll be stepping into a supportive, close-knit team , Our clients are loyal and involved in their pet's care, which gives us the opportunity to thoroughly work up cases and deliver the best possible outcomes.

There’s scope for nurse consults, and we’re keen to support your development in this area — whether that’s building your confidence in clinics or pursuing a particular area of interest.

To support a healthy work-life balance, this role follows a 4-day working week with 1:6 weekends, and you'll have a fixed day off during the week for that much-needed "me time."
