## Description (the employer's text)

Are you a Vet Nurse who is passionate about animal welfare, loves dogs and is looking for an excellent work life balance?

We are seeking a registered Vet Nurse to join the Veterinary Team based at our centres in Salisbury and Newbury.

The working pattern for this role will be Monday-Friday.

### Responsibilities

As Vet Nurse, you will:

- work closely with the Dogs Trust rehoming centre team to help provide excellent veterinary care and welfare to our dogs,
- be involved with routine veterinary care, maintaining clinical protocols, assisting with the transfer of dogs to/from the local veterinary surgery and providing post-surgery care,
- be a point of contact regarding veterinary assistance for the centre team, helping to ensure that protocols are adhered to by providing informal, occasional training to staff.
### Skills

To be successful in this role you will be a Registered Veterinary Nurse with an appreciation of handling dogs in accordance with Dogs Trust guidelines, using positive reinforcement techniques. Experience of working in a rehoming/charity establishment would be desirable, but a full induction is provided. You will be able to show empathy and understanding towards both dogs and people and be committed to delivering the highest standards of patient care and customer service. You will also need a full, clean UK driving licence.

### Benefits

Our rehoming centres house thousands of dogs each year until they are able to find a loving new home, and the success of our centres wouldn't be possible without our dedicated team of staff and volunteers; there is a real family-community within each of our centres. Come rain or shine, our team are out in all weathers to make sure the dogs have the best possible life. Dealing with thousands of visitors each month, our rehoming centres are the face of Dogs Trust and we pride ourselves on our staff providing the very best in customer service.
