Careers

Registered Veterinary Nurse (RVN)

We are looking for an additional RVN to join us at our independent specialist ophthalmology referral practice. Our seven veterinary ophthalmologists and three residents are supported by a clinical team consisting of a specialist veterinary anaesthetist, two interns, nine nurses and four animal care assistants. We also have two dedicated receptionists and an insurance administrator, which allows our nurses more time to be nurses. Although we specialise in ophthalmology and see cases referred from all over the country, no previous referral experience is necessary; you just need a desire to learn and to provide the best possible care for our patients, clients and referring practices. Our friendly team will look after you!

We work from a purpose-built practice, based just south of Leominster, situated within its own beautiful orchard. A lovely place to eat lunch, pick some fruit or just enjoy the view. Work life and home life balance is very important to us, our full-time nurses routinely work a four-day week with a one-in-seven weekend commitment.

An excellent package is on offer for the right candidate, including a competitive salary, private healthcare, employee assistance program, cash-plan membership, life insurance, 4% employer pension contribution, profit share and a generous CPD allowance.

For further details, and to send your CV, please contact our Nurse Manager, Kate Spitzmaul (kate@eyevetclinic.co.uk or Practice Manager, Jenny Corrall (jenny@eyevetclinic.co.uk)

What clients think about us

What wonderful staff my little mate who has been blind for 5 weeks was with them on Wednesday for his operation, after 5 very stressful, weeks for him and even for stressful for me, this morning I believe he can now see me again he woke this morning eyes wide open and a lovely sparkle in his face and I swear he was grinning at me I can’t thank John, Karen and the brilliant nurses and staff enough.

Graham Grigg

Can’t thank everyone here enough for everything they have done for Marley. He went blind just over a month ago with diabetic cataracts in both eyes, he is only 3. Ramona has been amazing from his first assessment all the way to his surgery yesterday. We will be forever grateful to you for giving him his sight back. Amazing practice and amazing people!

Natalie Small

Would highly recommend! We had 3 visits and everytime they were really thorough and explained everything carefully to us and we felt that the health and wellbeing of our dog was their top priority. It’s well organised and it’s set in beautiful, well maintained surroundings. Thank you so much to all the staff xx
