Veterinary Receptionist

Overview

We are seeking an enthusiastic and proactive colleague to join our team of nine receptionists, covering our Ashcroft Road (IP1 6AA
) and Barn (IP8 3EY
) surgeries. The candidate will work at both surgeries (primarily at Ashcroft Road) and perform a varied array of tasks aimed at ensuring our clients are well cared for and the practice runs smoothly.

The role of a veterinary receptionist is varied; no two days are the same. You will be the first point of contact for clients arriving at the practice or phoning to book appointments or request medication. A good working knowledge of veterinary practice would be useful but not essential, and being at ease with computer work is a must.

The Barn Veterinary Practice is a long-established practice, and many of our team have worked for us for 10+ years, some for 20+ years! We are a small team and work well together. As a close-knit group, we work seamlessly together to provide exceptional care for our clients and their pets.

You will work 15.75 hours per week:

• Tuesdays: 2 pm - 7:30 pm
• Thursdays: 2 pm - 7:30 pm

You will be required to cover extra shifts to cover team holiday/sickness.

The annual salary for this role is up to £10,034.61 (£12.21/hr)

• 6.6 weeks annual leave FTE
• Additional annual leave for your birthday which will be added to your holiday allowance
• Enhanced family-friendly policies, including maternity/ paternity/ adoption/ shared parental and surrogacy pay
• Cycle to work scheme
• Initiatives focused on employee wellbeing
• Non-accidental injury support
