Veterinary Surgeon

There are many reasons why you'll enjoy taking our growing practice in Banbury to the next level - from the supportive team and fantastic facilities to the attractive location and great benefits package. Add in the flexibility we offer around the hours and rota, and this could be the perfect opportunity to find a role with work-life balance that lets you love what you do at work and at home.

At our thriving Banbury practice, you'll find an environment designed for more rewarding work. It's kitted out to a very high standard with 3 consult rooms, full in-house laboratory, digital CR radiography, and ultra-sound. There's a well-equipped surgical theatre with diathermy, capnography, and multi-parameter monitor. And piped anaesthetic gases in all areas of the surgery.

Here you'll take care of much-loved pets including dogs, cats, reptiles, and raptors - from routine health consults to complex medical cases and orthopaedic surgery. More than 30% of our active client base are insured, with the majority on a health plan.

In all you do, you'll enjoy the support of a terrific team including a highly experienced and hugely committed Practice Manager and an established, dedicated nursing team with a variety of experience. You'll also be supported by colleagues in the Pets at Home store and the dedicated Vets4Pets support office.

We offer flexible hours, and you can choose to join us on a full or part-time basis depending on your needs and preferences. This role will ideally cover a minimum of 25 hours a week, preferably including 1 in 3 weekends. If you're looking for something different, we encourage you to get in touch. The most important thing is to find the right person for the role.

We're looking for a confident, talented, and experienced Veterinary Surgeon who is personable and forward-thinking. In return for helping us develop the practice, you can look forward to plenty of opportunities for training and CPD, including funding towards certificates. There is also the opportunity to become a practice owner with our Joint Venture Partnership model.

We offer a salary of up to £60,000 pa depending on experience + £5,000 Welcome Bonus. As you'd expect, we offer all the standard benefits (pension, healthcare, paid memberships, etc.) plus a few more, such as excellent career progression and exclusive lifestyle and shopping discounts (up to 30% off at Pets at Home). We're also happy to provide relocation packages from within or outside the UK, including visa sponsorship if needed (we're an A+ rated sponsor).

A relocation package, including costs towards accommodation, is available to the right candidate. So there's no barrier to taking up this great opportunity and making the most of life in or near the lively and expanding market town of Banbury, which offers easy access to Oxford, Birmingham, London, and the glorious Cotswolds.
