Independent GP in Glasgow

Are you a RVN tired of corporate targets in practice?

Want to get flexibility around consult times, pricing and caseloads?

We are supporting a growing, 3-vet practice near Glasgow as they look to continue their development with the appointment of a new Registered Veterinary Nurse.

The Practice:

The nursing team is the backbone of any successful practice, we are proud that the current RVNs have helped develop a strong culture of support, professional growth, and personal ambition that truly shines out for clients visiting.

Our practice owners have seen how dramatically the veterinary market has changed in the UK and wanted to offer something different. We converted a previously derelict building into a truly state-of-the-art veterinary practice. We have tonnes of wards space for cats, dogs, and small mammals, and a large laboratory for in-house analysis testing. Broad range of consulting expertise from our experienced surgeons, as well as all sorts of surgical offerings. We do have to refer some surgical work out but always try to keep our clients in-house for client continuity.

The practice operates on a 'Field of Dreams' philosophy: build a good service and reputation, and clients will come. We brand ourselves as the stark opposite of our competing corporate friends: never pushing unnecessary work or treatments; staff are hired as veterinary professionals, not salespeople, and don’t need to charge hand over fist (our consults are 25% cheaper than the competition!).

The Application  

Following an informal-call with our recruiter, we would look to invite you to meet the directors for a coffee chat, followed by a visit to the practice to meet the clinical team – and a few of the patients!

Benefits:

Alongside a salary negotiable DOE, we offer:

• Pension contribution  
• Four weeks of paid sick  
• 33 days of holiday per year
• RCVS professional fees are paid by the practice
• Continuing Professional Development (CPD) budget of £300 per year
• CPD budgets are open to discussion; if staff want to pursue specific training that benefits both the individual and the practice, additional funding can be negotiated
• The practice has a fully stocked staff area with sofas, fridges, cooker, microwave, and kettle
