Job description

If you enjoy working with a close-knit bunch of like-minded people and you enjoy being busy whilst having fun in a professional, friendly, supportive working environment then this is the practice you are looking for!

We are a small animal first opinion veterinary practice based in the beautiful Norfolk Broads, we are fortunate enough to have the city of Norwich a short car or train ride away (yes, Wroxham has a train station!), the broads on our doorstep and the amazing Norfolk coast a short drive away, the best of all worlds.

Our ethos has always been clear: to do the best for the animals in our care within the means of our clients and to look after our team with respect and kindness.

Our rota is designed to give one 4 day weekend and one 3 day weekend per 6 weeks. Part time applications will also be considered for the right candidate. We have tea breaks built into the diary with 30 minutes in the morning and 1 hour in the afternoon to enable a tea break and time to report lab results in addition to the lunch break! Routine appointments are 15 minutes with euthanasia's being double.

Our standard benefits include:

• Salary up to £67,000 (pro rata) depending on experience
• 25 days annual leave plus Bank Holidays (or equivalent) with our Buy/Sell holiday scheme - allowing you to purchase an additional two weeks of annual leave
• RCVS, VDS and subscription fees paid
