Full job description

At inspiring vet care, our people are at the heart of everything we do. As the UK’s number one vet care provider, we're trusted with the care of over 2 million animals, delivering our purpose of healthier animals and happier owners.

We are seeking an enthusiastic, team-orientated Veterinary Care Assistant to join our team at St Mary's Vets on a full-time basis.

St Mary's Veterinary Clinic is a friendly small animal practice based in Dorset, with easy access to the Jurassic Coast and the New Forest, alongside excellent rail and road connections from nearby Bournemouth and Poole. As part of the inspiring vet care Graduate Academy and a recognised nurse training practice, we're passionate about supporting the development of future veterinary professionals. You'll be joining a welcoming team with a great sense of humour and a collaborative approach to patient care.

How You’ll Make a Difference

As a Veterinary Care Assistant, you will play an important role in supporting the clinical team to deliver high standards of patient and client care, while helping to ensure the practice environment runs smoothly and safely.

Working under the direction of a Veterinary Surgeon or Registered Veterinary Nurse, you'll support inpatient care, assist with patient handling and restraint, help maintain clinical areas and equipment, and contribute to a positive and compassionate experience for both patients and clients.

A caring, professional approach with a genuine interest in animal welfare

Good communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively with colleagues and clients

Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage tasks effectively in a busy environment

A proactive attitude to learning, with openness to feedback and development

Experience of working with animals in either a clinical or non-clinical setting would be advantageous

How We’ll Support You

At inspiring vet care, we’re committed to supporting your ongoing development and wellbeing. When you join us, you’ll benefit from:

Structured development opportunities, including access to VCA development programmes and apprenticeships

Clear career pathways with progression opportunities into Student Veterinary Nurse roles and beyond

Supportive, collaborative teams focused on delivering high-quality patient and client care

A values-led culture focused on care, community and continuous improvement

What We Offer Our Team

6.6 weeks' annual leave plus your birthday off

Increasing holiday allowance based on length of service

Enhanced family-friendly policies, including maternity, paternity, adoption, shared parental and surrogacy pay

Employee wellbeing initiatives including Healthcare Cash Plan and Cycle to Work scheme

Learning and development opportunities via the inspiring vet care Academy

Pension scheme
