Animal Trust is currently seeking a nurse who shares our mission of making veterinary care more accessible and affordable. The diverse caseload this position offers will allow your nursing skills to shine.

Bolton is one of our 24hr sites, which consists of 8 consulting rooms, 3 theatres, x-ray dental suite as well as a CT scanner.

Ensuring the utmost comfort for our patients, we have separate dog and cat wards, including a specialised ICU ward for intensive nursing care. Our commitment to excellence is further demonstrated by our varied caseload, encompassing both medical and surgical cases, with weekly orthopaedic procedures.

About Animal Trust

Animal Trust stands out from other veterinary services. Firstly, we are a unique Community Interest Company, being the only veterinary CIC in the UK to date. Our primary focus isn\'t solely on maximising profits; instead, we are dedicated to delivering on our mission and ensuring enough profit to sustain our business in the long term.

Our vision is clear: No pet should go untreated or face euthanasia when there is a viable treatment option. We firmly believe that pet ownership should be accessible to all, acknowledging that individuals earning the Real Living Wage may encounter challenges in affording veterinary care when their pet falls ill. In response, we aim to assist. Our free consultations and transparent pricing enable our vets and nurses to break down the barriers that stand in the way of pets receiving the treatment they need.
