As a Veterinary Care Assistant (VCA) you will support the nurse and vets with in-patient procedures and pet care delivering exceptional care always there to our clients, patients, and colleagues.

We’re looking for an enthusiastic, compassionate, and dedicated Veterinary Care Assistant to join our team and help us deliver exceptional care to the animals and people who mean so much to us.

This is more than just a job — it’s an opportunity to be part of a team that makes a difference to pets’ lives every single day. From providing comfort and reassurance to patients to supporting our veterinary team in delivering outstanding clinical care, you’ll play a vital role in creating a positive experience for every animal and their owner who walks through our doors.

You’ll help ensure our patients feel safe, comfortable, and cared for, while maintaining high standards of cleanliness, hygiene, and patient welfare. Working alongside our vets and veterinary nurses, you’ll be involved in the day-to-day running of the practice, supporting treatments and procedures, caring for hospitalised patients, and helping create a welcoming, supportive environment for clients and colleagues alike.

We’re looking for someone who is proactive, reliable, and eager to learn — someone who understands that the little things can make the biggest difference. Whether you’re already experienced in a veterinary environment or looking to develop your skills and build a rewarding career in animal care, we’d love to hear from you.

In return, you’ll have the opportunity to grow your knowledge, develop your skills, and work alongside a team that shares your passion for animal welfare and excellent patient care.
