Job Description

A rare opportunity has arisen for a surgically biased Registered Veterinary Nurse to join a well-equipped, nurse-led hospital on the outskirts of Leeds. The hospital provides predominantly first-opinion care, supporting a large and loyal client base, while also receiving some internal case referrals from local branches. The hospital environment offers a high surgical throughput and modern facilities, making it ideal for an RVN who thrives in a theatre-led role. The nursing team is not split into medical and surgical roles, ensuring all nurses maintain a broad and well-rounded clinical skillset. However, nurses with a surgical interest will spend a greater proportion of their time in theatre and surgical prep, supporting procedures, anaesthesia, and peri-operative care.

Job Responsibility

  • Preparing and assisting with first-opinion soft tissue and orthopaedic surgeries
  • Monitoring routine to advanced anaesthetic protocols
  • Scrubbing in and assisting in theatre, including Schedule 3 procedures
  • Post-operative monitoring, analgesia, and patient recovery
  • Admitting and discharging surgical patients with excellent client communication

Requirements

  • Registered Veterinary Nurse (RVN) with strong interest in surgery, orthopaedics, and anaesthesia
  • confident, proactive, enthusiastic, and passionate about surgical nursing within a first-opinion setting

What we offer

  • Generous CPD allowance with support for surgical and anaesthesia-focused development
  • Pension scheme
  • Paid professional memberships (RCVS, BVNA, VDS)
  • Social events and a strong emphasis on wellbeing
  • Exclusive staff discounts and rewards
