I have no idea about vb.net procedures but if you can start it from the command line you can schedule a job with the sql server agent and use either xp_cmdshell or use a job step of type "Operating system (cmd exec)"...

thanks for suggestion.

At the moment the procedure I like to run as part of a scheduled job is in an application (reasonably big application).

I have just read an article on CLR stored procedures and I am beginning to think that's what I need to create. Am I on a right path?

Should I write the vb.net class as CLR stored procedure?

I would say that doing a CLR stored Procedure is the correct way as this used .net technologies, then from there create the job to execute that procedure
