We are seeking an enthusiastic, team-orientated Animal Nursing Assistant to join our team at Taverham Vets on a full-time permanent basis.

Our hospital-status practice is home to a brand-new CT scanner, dental suite, new and improved canine kennels, ISFM Gold standard cat kennels, dedicated isolation facilities and four operating theatres. Within the hospital, our team regularly performs ultrasonography, cardiology and orthopaedic surgeries.

Longwater Lane is a one-vet branch surgery offering personal and high-quality services, including surgical procedures and an in-house laboratory. The practice is also home to a luxury veterinary-led cattery and an excellent hydrotherapy and physiotherapy service.

Our practices are based in the peaceful towns of Taverham and Costessey, just 15 minutes from the historic city of Norwich and less than an hour from some of the best beaches the UK has to offer.
