Why This Role Stands Out:
Flexible Working Hours:Tailor your schedule to fit around your life. Options include shorter hours, such as 9am – 3pm, three days a week.
Supportive Team Environment: Join a dedicated team of 6 vets, 10 Registered Veterinary Nurses (RVNs), 6 Student Veterinary Nurses (SVNs), and a skilled team of receptionists, all committed to helping you achieve your career goals.
Surgical Focus:Spend up to three days in surgery, honing your skills in a surgically biased role.

The nursing team is equally accomplished, with qualifications in Emergency & Critical Care, Infection Control, Feline Friendly Nursing, and more.
Located in Sunderland, the practice is conveniently close to the stunning North East coastline and excellent transport links, including metro stations, the A19, A1, and main train stations.
