Permanent Equine Vet - Dorset (Clinical Director Option)

We are currently recruiting for an equine vet surgeon on behalf of a friendly 5 vet dedicated equine team which is part of a large mixed practice. Their much-admired senior colleague will be retiring soon and will be  looking for a motivated team player who enjoys first opinion practice at a high level. Vets are encouraged to work up their own cases with support from colleagues as required. 

The work is ambulatory in nature with mostly leisure horses, as well as some stud work and commercial yards. They also have an equine outpatient clinic for diagnostic work and treatments with a knock-down box and facilities for minor surgical procedures. 

Their range of equipment includes digital DR radiography, digital ultrasound machines for fertility, musculoskeletal and abdominal imaging and a gastroscope unit. A variety of dental equipment includes motorised battery burrs and oroscope.  

Offering a very competitive package, rising with experience and additional benefits include: 

• 22.5 days holiday plus bank holidays 
• Additional leave purchase scheme 
• 5 days CPD annually and £1500 CPD budget 
• Company car (available for private use) 
• Medical Health Care Plan
• Equally shared out of hours duties with two days off given for weekends worked 

We also have the added benefit of being based in the stunning Dorset countryside within easy reach of the coast.
