Join Mercer & Hughes

We are looking for a Night Registered Veterinary Nurse to join our team at Mercer & Hughes Veterinary Surgeons in Saffron Walden.

With over 40 years of heritage and a trusted reputation across Essex, we combine high-quality veterinary care with strong community relationships and a supportive team environment.
