Are you a confident, enthusiastic RVN looking for a role where your skills are valued and your ideas supported? At Rhodes Vets we’re proud of our welcoming, close-knit team and we’re looking for another passionate nurse to join us. Whether you’re seeking full-time or part-time hours, we’d love to hear from you.
Why join us?
No out-of-hours – enjoy your evenings and weekends

Our team is made up of 4 vets, 3 RVNs and 8 support staff. Between us we hold certificates in Small Animal Medicine and Veterinary Imaging. We’re proud to be a supportive workplace where everyone’s contribution matters.
Location
Kingsthorpe is a lively suburb of Northampton, combining historic charm with great amenities and green spaces. It’s well-connected, giving you the best of suburban life with easy access to the town centre and beyond.
