Wensleydale Vets is looking for a motivated, organised, and enthusiastic team player to join our friendly team as an Administration Assistant.

We are an RCVS-accredited mixed veterinary practice, committed to providing high standards of veterinary care and excellent service to our local community. This is a varied role for someone who enjoys collaborating with people, has good administrative skills and would like to play an important part in the smooth running of our practice.

The Role

• Learning to make the best use of our practice management system to support the efficient running of the practice.

We are looking for someone who is dependable, approachable, and well organised, with good attention to detail and the ability to manage a varied workload.
