Now for team support
At the Nottingham clinic, a two-year old purpose built hospital, you’ll benefit from dedicated support and coaching, both formally as part of your professional journey and informally through collaboration with our Senior Vet, Rebecca. The clinic is well staffed, with a broad spectrum of both private and PDSA clients. The team is slightly larger team compared to most out-of-hours providers, with two or three nurses always working, as well as backshift vets and receptionists during busier periods.

- £1,500 CPD allowance plus 35 paid hours pro rata

The Company
As the UK’s leading pet emergency service, we have a route to an exciting career in emergency and critical care for veterinary surgeons and registered veterinary nurses, no matter where you are in your career.
Vets Now was founded by Richard Dixon, a veterinary surgeon who understood the pressures of being on-call which also trying to maintain a good quality of life.
Today, almost two decades since Richard did his first out-of-hours shift, we’re still just as passionate about emergency and critical care and our clinics are all managed by people who have worked as frontline vets or vet nurses.
In an emergency, pet owners want to know they’ve got the experts on board. And so do we.
