RVN

We are seeking an enthusiastic and dedicated REVN or RVN to join our team at Valley Equine 
Hospital on a full-time basis. Situated in the heart of Lambourn, Berkshire, our hospital is a dynamic 
environment where you will work closely with surgical and medical specialists, as well as our

Our caseload is both busy and diverse, spanning first opinion and referral cases across a wide 
spectrum of equine disciplines. This role demands a high level of clinical competence and
