Bicester Vets is an independent, well equipped, RCVS accredited Veterinary Hospital with on-site 24-hour care and we are currently looking for a candidate to train as a Veterinary Nurse!
The successful applicant would be employed in a full-time, Trainee Veterinary Nurse position.
This entails full-time work, following our rolling nine-week rota; learning on the job as well as attending college one day a week.
The college course takes two years to complete and involves coursework, exams and completion of the on-line Nursing Progress Log.
The course is funded by Bicester Vets (subject to a training agreement) and support is given from a Registered Veterinary Nurse Mentor in practice.
We have 11 vets, 11 nurses, 2 Animal Care Assistants and a fantastic reception team.
Many of our vets hold extra certificates in a range of subjects and we have visiting specialists in ultrasonography and ophthalmology. Thus, we have a broad range of medical and surgical cases, all treated on-site, which is ideal for completing the Nursing Progress Log.
Prospective candidates must have the following criteria to apply:
• Five A-C grade GSCE’s including Maths, Science and English.
• A full driving licence and car/transport. (Attending college involves a weekly drive to Warwickshire).
• Previous animal related work experience is beneficial but not essential.
Please send a CV and covering letter to Kath@bicestervets.co.uk
We look forward to hearing from you!
