Build the nursing career you aspire to with ground-breaking treatments, complex cases and a team that supports your growth! Are you an RVN ready to deepen your knowledge and take the next step in your nursing career? At Fitzpatrick Referrals, you’ll care for patients receiving pioneering orthopaedic and neurological treatments, with opportunities to develop your expertise in anaesthesia, surgical and diagnostic nursing. Join an exceptional team of skilled, compassionate colleagues who share their knowledge, support one another and take pride in delivering outstanding patient care.

Working across our preparation and theatre areas, you’ll deliver attentive, individualised nursing care throughout each patient’s anaesthetic, surgical and diagnostic journey.

Beyond induction, quarterly one-to-one meetings and an annual appraisal provide regular opportunities to discuss your progress, goals and development. With funded CPD, encouragement to pursue further learning and a nursing structure that supports different career directions, you’ll have opportunities to explore where your skills and interests can take you.

We’re looking for a registered veterinary nurse who combines compassion with a proactive approach to patient care. You’ll be a thoughtful team member, attentive to detail and keen to keep learning, with the ability to adapt as clinical priorities change.
