Unlock your passions at Churchview Veterinary Centre

Churchview Vets is a well-established, RCVS accredited, 100% small animal practice in a great location on the Wirral where you are close to both city and countryside. We pride ourselves on offering exemplary customer service for our loyal client base and are strong believers in preventative care.

Working with us will allow you to offer your clients outstanding customer-focused service and provide reassuring case continuity. The practice is small in structure, but we are busy, and every day is truly varied.

A new graduate would join us at an exciting time, as we have just expanded our practice into the next-door building. This has enabled us to develop the services we offer to our wonderful clients, as well as allowing our Vets and Nurses to flourish and to further their interests. Practice facilities include dental x-ray, new ultrasound, multiparameter monitor, new cat and dog kennels, full practice refurbishment, three consultation room, catalyst one and lasercyte in house, dental tub table, large theatre with separate prep area.

The team is extremely supportive and made up of 4 Vets and 3 Nurses. We focus on the team being at the centre of everything we do. We incorporate colleague wellbeing and team building and the communication between the team is unmatched. It really is a lovely practice to work in.

Step into a supportive start

Your normal hours of work are 40 hours per week, 4/5 days a week. Due to the particular needs of the business we need to operate a rota system, therefore there are no normal times of work applicable to you and your daily hours, start and finish times will vary from time to time on a rota system. The rota operates Monday to Friday inclusive. In addition, you may also be required to participate in a weekend rota.

Full support from our clinical director and other Vets who go above and beyond to assist each other. We make every effort to provide a great service to our lovely clients who are willing to do as much as possible for their pets.
