WE ARE HIRING!

Here at Wirral Vets, we are looking for a dedicated and caring Veterinary Care Assistant to join our team on a part-time basis. As a Veterinary Care Assistant, you will be an integral part of the practice team working with our Veterinary Surgeons, qualified Nurses, Student nurses and reception team to provide exceptional care to our patients and clients.

OUR IDEAL CANDIDATE

As part of our team you will need to have the ability to build positive working relationships with your colleagues, have the ability to remain calm under pressure, prioritise tasks, be flexible and willing to learn. We are looking for a confident communicator.
