Lovely vets. My dog has, unfortunately, needed a lot of various treatments over the last few years and I have been completely happy each and every time. All the staff are very friendly, helpful, kind, considerate and knowledgeable. I feel confident that the care they give my dog is as good as I could ever hope for – Jan E – Google Review
About this role
The role involves supporting RVNs with performing schedule 3 procedures, supporting and coaching graduate vets to aquire basic dentistry skills, and assisting the Practice Director and Clinical Directors with dental related client concerns, pricing strategy and development of new services.
As part of our team we have a vet who has completed a PGcert in dentistry. We are keen to expand the practices offering in dentistry and as we currently provide referrals in other disciplines there is scope to offer referrals to local practices.
This opportunity will give the right candidate the chance to walk in to a fully functional bespoke dental branch which is already running staged dentals, and continue to develop the service we are offering to clients.
Since 2019 our Beverley Road branch has been our dedicated dental branch, providing dental services to the whole practice. In 2021 the site underwent expansion and there are now two fully kitted out dental suites with dental x-ray.
The decision to offer staged dentistry as standard has enabled us to improve our service to clients, with dental procedures which are planned and scheduled to enhance patient safety and colleague enjoyment, as well as ensure continued productivity.
We are committed to developing our RVNs and veterinary team members, and in addition to RVNs having scheduled stage 1 lists, we schedule time off rota for our graduate vets to get to grips with dentistry.
A full-time role offers a 40-hour workweek over four days, with a regular day off each week. We’re also happy to discuss part-time options (3 days per week)
