Night Registered Veterinary Nurse

If you thrive in the fast-paced environment of emergency critical care and share our passion for providing affordable care to animals, Shrewsbury Hospital are looking for a night RVN to join their team on a 7:14 rota.

As a Night Veterinary Nurse, you will play a crucial role in our mission to deliver outstanding veterinary care. You will be responsible for caring for our inpatients during the night, assisting in theatre, triaging and conducting emergency procedures. Our transparent pricing structure means that accessing veterinary care out of hours is more affordable than ever. With an £79 out-of-hours consultation fee, our service is accessible when pets need us most. The night team is fully supported by our first-opinion and referral services operating during the day, ensuring excellent continuity of care and clinical support.

Shrewsbury Hospital is a 24-hour facility committed to providing exceptional care to our patients. With dedicated staff managing both incoming cases and inpatients, we offer two theatre suites (one for advanced surgeries), a dental suite, and separate wards for dogs and cats, highlighting our commitment to feline-friendly care. Our practice includes five consulting rooms to accommodate a diverse caseload, including soft tissue and orthopaedic cases. Join us and work alongside our advanced clinical team, which includes surgical certificate holders

About animal Trust

Animal Trust stands out from other veterinary services. Firstly, we are a unique Community Interest Company, being the only veterinary CIC in the UK to date. Our primary focus isn't solely on maximising profits; instead, we are dedicated to delivering on our mission and ensuring enough profit to sustain our business in the long term. 

Our vision is clear: No pet should go untreated or face euthanasia when there is a viable treatment option. We firmly believe that pet ownership should be accessible to all, acknowledging that individuals earning the Real Living Wage may encounter challenges in affording veterinary care when their pet falls ill. In response, we aim to assist. Our free consultations and transparent pricing enable our vets and nurses to break down the barriers that stand in the way of pets receiving the treatment they need
