Ready to lead a tight-knit nursing team at a thriving South East London practice? This Head RVN role offers the chance to mentor student nurses, manage clinical coaching, and work with diverse surgical and medical cases in a supportive, well-equipped environment.
Mayow Veterinary Surgery is seeking a Registered Veterinary Nurse to step into a senior leadership position within their South East London team. This is a full-time role working 4 days per week, offering genuine work-life balance alongside meaningful clinical responsibility.
You'll be joining a thriving first-opinion practice housed in a converted building with excellent facilities: two large consulting rooms, a prep area with dog kennels, a separate cat ward, two theatres, and ISFM Silver Accreditation for cat-friendly care. The practice sees a strong surgical caseload, including orthopaedic cases, alongside a vibrant medicine caseload. You'll have access to fantastic, evolving equipment and work within a 3-vet clinic structure where professional development is actively encouraged.
The location is an attractive feature: South East London close to Crystal Palace, with easy access to Kent, local schools, and excellent transport links (train station minutes away, good bus routes). It feels like a village rather than central London but keeps you close to London Bridge.
