Our nurses enjoy a great work-life balance, enabling them to explore everything the locality has to offer in their downtime. With the historic attraction of Gloucester Cathedral and breath-taking countryside right on your doorstep, this location is perfect for nature-lovers. For those who prefer more of a city scene, you’re only a 45-minute drive from beautiful Bristol, and an hour and half from the lively Welsh capital of Cardiff.
You’ll be conscientious, hardworking, have a passion for providing excellent veterinary care, enjoy passing your experience and knowledge on to our students and be confident in all aspects of our nursing rota. A keen interest in anaesthesia would be advantageous. You will work a varied caseload where schedule 3 is actively encouraged, and additional training/qualifications are supported.
We have our own dedicated night team, so there are no OOHs, although there is the opportunity to provide cover if you have an interest in OOH/ECC work that you would like to explore further. Our in-house Laboratory with dedicated technicians provides advanced diagnostics.
Shifts will be between the hours of 8am-8pm, 1 in 6 weekends with time off in-lieu. However, we are flexible with working patterns and can offer full or part-time hours for the right candidate.
