This one’s for the Vet Nurses out there! If you’re an experienced vet nurse who’s highly competent in anaesthesia and with strong communication skills, then the Technical Training Manager role could be the next career step you’re looking for.

Join Adrian with Ellen, Laura, Andrew and Steven from the Department of Biomedical Sciences as we explore the role and the impact this newly created job could have on the research efforts of the whole University.

Here’s a few things we’ll be talking about

• The kind of work that the BMS group does and the global impact for human and animal health.
• The ideal candidate and the impact they could have on welfare through training and compliance. Few roles offer the chance to influence animal welfare at this scale.
• How the skills that experienced RVNs use everyday in clinic could translate into a new opportunity, training licensed technicians in anaesthesia across multiple species and creating the training and compliance plan for the department.
• A typical day in the life working alongside the Named Veterinary Surgeon and how the new role will fit in with multiple stakeholders.
• The remuneration and training opportunities.

It’s a rare and valuable job for the right nurse, so come and join the chat, you won’t regret it, even if it’s only an inspiration to try something a little different.

And, as ever, there’ll be time for networking and discussion after.
