We are seeking an experienced, diligent and team-oriented Registered Veterinary Nurse to join our team at The Avenue Vet on a full-time basis.
The Avenue Vets, Ealing is a modern, newly established practice located just a five-minute walk from West Ealing Station on the Elizabeth Line. The practice sits on a vibrant high street within a fast-growing area. Surrounded by new residential and commercial developments, it represents an exciting opportunity for future growth.
We have built a strong reputation for delivering personalised, preventative healthcare and high-quality veterinary treatment. The practice is fully equipped with advanced diagnostic and surgical facilities, including digital X-ray, dental X-ray, ultrasound, theatre and prep areas, and an in-house Zoetis laboratory, ensuring you have everything needed to provide outstanding clinical care. Thoughtfully designed throughout, the clinic also features separate cat and dog waiting areas, a spacious consulting room, and a welcoming reception space, creating a calm and efficient environment for both clients and their pets.
You will join a small, close-knit team consisting of a receptionist (who is studying to qualify as a VCA) and a veterinary surgeon, with plans to expand as the client base grows. You’ll also benefit from the support of the Practice Manager at our sister site, Alcombe Ealing. This role is ideally suited to an experienced, confident veterinary nurse who is comfortable working independently while maintaining excellent standards of care.
