Alderney is one of the most beautiful Channel Islands and we have a truly unique opportunity for a second veterinary nurse to join our team who relishes responsibility and enjoys a challenge.
Alderney has a population of just under 2000 people, is a 45-minute flight from mainland UK and is surrounded by beautiful beaches, and an incredibly caring community.
We are a charity practice providing a high level of veterinary care working with an experienced and dedicated vet in Guernsey who provides 24/7 support and two weekly visits to the island.
We are looking for a second veterinary nurse to join the practice who enjoys working in a small team but is also confident as a lone worker, and happy to manage rare OOH responsibilities.
If you are bored of the daily routine of ops and consults, looking for an improved work-life balance and are a confident problem solver, enjoy undertaking schedule 3 procedures and thinking on
your feet, then this is the job for you. There is plenty of scope to shape the job to your strengths and interests and the shorter working hours ensures you get time to enjoy island life.
Starting salary £27,500, for 4 short clinic days with flexible share of weekend and on call, £500 annually towards CPD, RCVS registration fee paid, practice vehicle available for use, on site flat available for rental, 20 days annual leave plus bank holidays.

🐾🐾**Dog Coat Appeal**🐾🐾

You may remember that last year we had a collection of dog coats for the homeless dogs in Dorset. We could really do with your generosity again this year before it starts to get really cold again.

If you have any old coats that your dogs no longer needs please drop them into Weymouth or Dorchester practice so that we can get this given out.

Thank you 🐶
