Strachan Vets Heaton

04/06/2026

Wanted: An RVN who's ready to settle somewhere they actually love. 🐶🐱

We're Strachan Vets — an independent small animal practice with two branches across Newcastle Upon Tyne, and our nursing team has a spare chair with your name on it.

We're not a chain. We're not corporate. We're a team of 11 people who care deeply about each other and the animals we treat.

What we're offering isn't just a job — it's a 4-day week, fair pay (up to £32k), full CPD support, weekly Friday Feasts 🍕, and a team culture where your ideas and suggestions are genuinely welcome.

What we're looking for is someone confident in all aspects of first opinion nursing, who supports students, uses evidence-based practice, and fits in with a team that's friendly, inclusive, and a little bit obsessed with animals.

Want to see for yourself first? Come spend a day with us. ✨

We know how stressful it can be for your cat coming to the vet, let alone the battle to get them into the carrier.

We love this information from International Cat Care, which we hope may give you a few tips! 🐱
