As Area Manager, you'll be at the heart of the practices—present, approachable, and hands-on. Working alongside practice managers, senior nurses, and client care leads, you'll bring consistency, positivity, and clear direction to ensure every clinic delivers the best possible service to clients, patients, and each other.
Why this role stands out:
- Tangible impact - Drive improvements across practices and resolve challenges before they escalate.

- Collaborative culture - Partner with a grounded senior leadership team who genuinely value your ideas.
- Excellence at every level - Support respected vets, talented RVNs, and passionate front-of-house teams.
- Rewarding package - Up to £48,000 salary, reflecting responsibility and scope.
- Prior experience as an Area Manager, Regional Manager, or leading multiple sites in the veterinary or healthcare sector
- A natural people-person who can motivate, coach, and problem-solve with empathy and authority
- Someone who enjoys being present in practices rather than office-based
- A full driving licence and willingness to travel across Kent
Each practice is different in size and personality, but all share a commitment to clinical excellence, ethical care, and team wellbeing. This is a role where your influence will be visible every day—helping people flourish, practices thrive, and patients receive the very best care.
