Job description

The Role

Do you want to take your nursing skills to the next level in a supportive learning environment, whilst learning how to provide exceptional patient care within our friendly referral team?

Hamilton Specialist Referrals have an exciting opportunity for a Ward Nurse RVN to join their team.

You will be based in our state-of-the-art kennels and cat ward, nursing orthopaedic, neurological, soft tissue, oncology, and internal medicine patients.

Your role will include communicating with the clinical team and discipline-specific specialists, to ensure high-quality care, recovering patients from anaesthesia, and nursing our inpatients.

This is a permanent position, working 40 hours per week, 1:6 weekends, 2 Bank Holidays per year, and varied shift times. Part-time candidates will also be considered.

The starting salary is £31,800, with a relocation package offered.

About Us

Hamilton Specialist Referrals (HSR) is a state-of-the-art, specialist veterinary hospital based near the Oxfordshire/Buckinghamshire border.

Originally orthopaedic and neurology-based, we now also offer services in soft tissue surgery, internal medicine, oncology, and cardiology.

Our referral centre is undergoing a structured growth plan. Your career path is important to us, and we have unlimited opportunities available geared towards individual strengths and interests. Further qualifications are encouraged and fully supported.

HSR offers the most cutting-edge investigations and treatments, with both a 1.5 Tesla MRI and a CT scanner on-site; all disciplines are supported by our team of Veterinary Interns and work closely with the in-house professional rehabilitation department.

About the Team and Culture

Our core ethos here at HSR is based on appreciation of our staff. Curating and developing a friendly, close-knit team is a central part of our working environment. We feel strongly about our employees' right to enjoy work and develop rewarding careers. HSR holds frequent external and internal CPDs on multiple topics which are often nurse focused, held by our own Specialists and nurse practitioners.

Experience within a referral setting is preferred but not essential, as we have a structured 6-week induction mentoring programme combined with a 6-month training period designed to support all new nurses. We are also proud to offer central support via IVC's 'Introduction to Referral Nursing' training modules, specifically designed for RVN's moving from first opinion to referral.

Applicant Requirements

You must be a qualified RVN, whilst being a proactive, enthusiastic and approachable person who is not only a great team player but is also able to use their own initiative and self-motivate. Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, as well as the ability to multi-task with a flexible approach to working, are a must.
