Registered Veterinary Nurse - Out of Hours (12 Month Fixed Term Contract)
East Neuk Vet Clinic, Fife, Scotland
Discipline: Out of Hours
Full Time
Up to £32,000 DOE pro-rata
We’re excited to offer a fantastic opportunity for a Registered Veterinary Nurse to join our night team on a 12-month fixed-term contract, starting November 2025.
Your New Role
At East Neuk Veterinary Clinic, we pride ourselves on providing exceptional surgical care for dogs and cats. We frequently receive referrals from veterinary surgeons across Scotland for specialist orthopaedic treatments, allowing us to manage a diverse range of orthopaedic cases—from routine procedures to complex fractures. Our commitment is to deliver affordable, evidence-based care of the highest standard to every patient.
As an Out of Hours Veterinary Nurse, your primary responsibilities will include providing inpatient care, keeping clients informed about their pets’ health status, and maintaining the practice environment through cleaning and stock management.
Work in a State-of-the-art Hospital
We have well-equipped, spacious operating theatres with Multiparameter Monitoring, DR X-Ray, plus a new Siemens CT scanner and ultrasound. We stock Arthrex and Synthes fracture plating and TPLO systems, whilst the clinic also has CUE, Synacart and the Biometrix THR kits available.
Situated in the charming village of St Monans in the East Neuk of Fife, our location is surrounded by picturesque beaches, coastal trails, and unique local cafes, shops, and businesses. Despite the tranquil setting, we're just an hour away from Edinburgh and a 45-minute drive to Dundee, ensuring easy access to the excitement of city life.
Working Hours
Your schedule will follow a 3-week rotating rota: one week of night shifts from Monday to Sunday, 8 PM to 8 AM, followed by two weeks off.
Join an Advanced Team
We're proud to have a welcoming and supportive team consisting of 7 Veterinary Surgeons, 10 Veterinary Nurses, and 5 front-of-house staff members. Two of our surgeons hold prestigious RCVS and European Specialist qualifications in Small Animal Surgery, and we're fortunate to have numerous experienced Certificate Holders and Advanced Practitioners on board.
