As a Veterinary Care Assistant (VCA), you will support our nurses and vets with inpatient procedures and the day-to-day care of our patients, helping to deliver exceptional standards of care to our clients, patients, and colleagues at all times.
We are looking for someone with previous experience working in a veterinary practice who is confident handling animals and has experience monitoring anaesthesia. A full driving licence is essential, as you will be required to accompany vets when transporting patients to our Hendon Hospital for surgical procedures.

This opportunity would suit a confident, enthusiastic, and outgoing individual who has excellent customer service skills and enjoys working as part of a supportive team.
This is a full-time position, working 40 hours per week, Monday to Friday at our Mill Hill branch. The role also includes working one full weekend in every three at Hendon 24-Hour Hospital. In addition, you should expect to work 2-3 bank holidays per year and participate in a shared on-call rota, providing support to Hendon 24-Hour Hospital for approximately 2-3 weeks per year.
