Position Overview & Specifications
We need some more brilliant receptionists/ veterinary administrators!
The Neighbourhood Vet is a lovely 20 vet practice in SE London that was opened almost 10 years ago. We pride ourselves on providing the best, progressive care with certificate holders in medicine, cardiology & surgery.
Our main hospital is situated in the heart of East Dulwich on popular Lordship Lane and our two branch clinics are located in Crofton Park and Penge where we are a strong part of the local community.
We are growing rapidly, and are looking to recruit another receptionist/veterinary administrator to join our team. An ideal applicant would be looking for a full-time role (including 1 in 3 weekends).
Although there are now quite a lot of us (70!), we have a close, caring and fun team. We pride ourselves on being kind, compassionate and doing the right thing for our staff, clients and their pets. And we like having a laugh and we try to make every day at work a good one.
