The Opportunity

A rare and exciting opportunity has arisen for a Head Registered Veterinary Nurse to take the lead in a well-established Greater London practice. This role offers the perfect platform for an experienced RVN to step into leadership, inspire a team, and make a genuine impact on both patient care and team development.

The successful candidate will bring confidence, organisation, and a proactive approach to guiding colleagues, overseeing daily nursing operations, and ensuring the smooth running of clinical care.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Leadership & mentorship – guide and inspire a supportive team of RVNs and VCAs

  
  

• Varied and rewarding caseload – including nurse consults and Schedule 3 procedures

  
  

• Excellent work-life balance – full-time role with flexibility and strong local connections

  
  

• Professional development – CPD allowance, certificate funding, and leadership training

  
  

• Be part of a culture that values growth, wellbeing, and clinical excellence

  ✔ Dispense and check medications, ensuring accuracy and compliance
  ✔ Coach, mentor, and inspire team members at all levels
  ✔ Hold regular team briefings to promote collaboration and efficiency
  ✔ Uphold exceptional patient care, client service, and professional standards

  What We’re Looking For

  ✔ RCVS-registered Veterinary Nurse
  ✔ Confident leader with experience mentoring or supporting colleagues
  ✔ Skilled in nurse consultations and clinical excellence
  ✔ Strong communication and team-building skills
  ✔ Proactive, organised, and motivated to make a difference
  ✔ Experience with coaching and influencing skills to get the best from every colleague

  Rewards & Benefits

  • £40,000 salary (DOE)

    
    

  • 5 weeks’ + 1 day annual leave + Bank Holidays (rising to 6 with service)

    
    

  • Health care plan

    
    

  • Life assurance

    
    

  • Funded RCVS & VDS fees

    
    

  • £750 CPD allowance + 2 paid CPD days (certificates encouraged & funded)

  • Retail discounts and employee perks

    
    

  • Access to internal CPD and clinical communities
