Registered Veterinary Nurse – Weekend Role (Saturdays)
Up to £34,000 FTE + attractive benefits package
Part-time | Weekend-focused
South West Leeds
Are you a Registered Veterinary Nurse looking for a weekend-based role within a busy hospital environment?
Would you like the security of a regular Saturday position, with the option to pick up additional weekday shifts if desired?
A rare opportunity has arisen for an RVN to join a well-equipped, nurse-led 24/7 hospital on the outskirts of Leeds, offering a Saturday-focused working pattern with the option to also work a few days during the week.
The Hospital & Role
This is a 24/7 hospital providing predominantly first-opinion care, supporting a large and loyal client base, while also receiving internal referrals from local branches. The hospital benefits from high surgical throughput and modern facilities, making it an excellent environment for an RVN who enjoys a theatre-
led role.
This position is primarily Saturdays, ideal for nurses seeking a consistent weekend commitment. There is also opportunity to work additional weekday shifts by mutual agreement, offering flexibility around your lifestyle.
The nursing team is not split into medical and surgical roles, ensuring all nurses maintain a broad and well-rounded clinical skillset.
The Team
You’ll be joining a large and supportive team of over 60 staff, including experienced vets and nurses. Several team members hold postgraduate certificates in Small Animal Surgery, Anaesthesia, ECC, Medicine, and Dentistry, providing an excellent learning environment.
The Ideal Candidate
You’ll be a confident and proactive RVN, comfortable working in a fast-paced hospital setting, with a positive attitude and a genuine passion for patient care. Weekend experience is advantageous but not essential.
What’s in it for you?
Competitive salary up to £34,000 FTE (pro rata for part-time hours)
Weekend-focused working pattern (every Saturday)
Optional additional weekday shifts
Generous CPD allowance, with support for surgical and anaesthesia development
Pension scheme
Paid professional memberships (RCVS, BVNA, VDS)
Strong focus on wellbeing and team culture
Social events
Exclusive staff discounts and rewards
