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 Animal Care Assistant to join our team at Lawrie Vets on a full-time permanent basis.

The Lawrie Veterinary Group is a busy small animal and exotic practice with well-established branches in Cumbernauld and Falkirk. We have expanded into another premises in Falkirk, with an additional branch practice in Bo'Ness. Our second Falkirk branch has become our Healthy Pet Centre as a unique and exciting addition to our brand. We have a varied and interesting first-opinion and referral caseload, especially when it comes to our exotic animal patients.

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

Learning and development opportunities via the inspiring vet care Academy

Pension scheme

Discounted veterinary care

Voluntary benefits including Green Cars salary sacrifice scheme and access to discounts and cashback with hundreds of participating retailers

We’re committed to supporting our people through career development opportunities, wellbeing initiatives and access to world-class learning resources.

Up to £26,436.8 per annum
