Job description

This is a fast-moving environment where team support is always available and any level of experience would be considered. This would be ideal for both an experienced vet looking for quality of life or someone looking to broaden their knowledge with support available where needed.

This a full-time position (40 hours) with a flexible working pattern, 4 day weeks, a shared weekend rota of 1 in 4 Saturdays and Sundays with 3 days off following any weekend rota shift as well as one 3 day weekend per shift rotation.

We can offer you:

  • Competitive salary of up to 60k depending on experience
  • Experienced vets more than willing to help, teach and support where needed.
  • No OOH or overnight in patient checks
  • No on call duty
  • Emphasis on quality of life
  • Generous CPD
  • Contributary pension schemes
  • Paid memberships (RCVS, BVNA, VDS)
  • Exclusive company and high street discounts and rewards

What you can offer us:

Sharing our passion and commitment for high standards will ensure you thrive within this role. With a confident and capable approach, the team would love someone who could bring new ideas and ambition to the team, as they are always looking for ways to improve and grow. As a Practice, we are inclusive, embracing a supportive and non-judgement environment.
