1:3 branch Saturday rota and 1:10 hospital Sunday rotation. One bank holiday per year at Mandeville Hospital. No on-call requirements.
Chalfont St Peter practice is seeking an experienced Senior RVN to join their tight-knit team on a flexible part-time basis. This is a genuinely supportive environment where you'll work alongside 2.5 vets, excellent nursing and reception colleagues, and a regional manager with deep knowledge of the practice.

You'll work 20 to 30 hours per week with a manageable 1:3 branch Saturday rota and 1:10 hospital Sunday rotation, plus one bank holiday per year at the nearby Mandeville Hospital. Importantly, there are no on-call requirements, giving you genuine control over your schedule.
