Job Details

We are looking for a confident, forward-thinking Veterinary Surgeon to join our growing surgery in Banbury!

This is a great opportunity to work within a collaborative team that prides itself on being open to new ways of working. Based within an established Pets At Home store, you will be welcomed by the practice and store colleagues and will work closely together to provide high levels of patient and client care at all times.

You will be joining an experienced team, including Richard Knight, the senior vet and Joint Venture Partner, who qualified in 1995 and has over 15 years of general mixed practice experience including small animal, exotics, farm, equine and zoo animals. Richard has a fantastic team of 2 vets, a head nurse, 3 RVNs, 1 SVN, and a non-clinical team including a practice manager.

Person Specification

We are looking for a confident and personable vet with at least 2 years clinical experience in small animal practice. You should be comfortable in sole charge on a weekend rota basis and able to provide additional clinical support as necessary. We encourage ownership of cases and along with the support of the rest of the team, you will be able to utilise and develop your skills and expertise to meet your clients’ expectations. 

This position is full or part time with a minimum of 25 hours per week, including a 1 in 3 weekend rota (Saturdays 9am -5pm and Sundays 10am - 4pm) and there will be no OOH allowing for an excellent work/life balance.

Banbury is a lively and expanding market town located just off the M40 with easy access to Oxford, Birmingham, London and The Cotswolds. We see a very varied case load in lots of species from dogs and cats to reptiles and raptors, from routine health consults and complex medical cases to orthopaedic surgery. Over 30% of our active client base are insured and a majority are on a health plan. Our spacious, three consulting room surgery is equipped to a high standard with a full in-house laboratory, digital CR radiography, ultra-sound, well equipped surgical theatre with diathermy, capnography, multi-parameter monitor and piped anaesthetic gases in all areas of the surgery. 

Benefits

If you would like to join us, we can offer you:

  • Flexible rota – part time or full time considered
  • No OOH
  • 1 in 3 weekends
  • Encourage CPD and potentially support towards a certificate
  • Free onsite car parking
  • Pension scheme
  • Exclusive colleague discounts
  • Paid memberships – RCVS, BVA, VDS, BSAVA
  • Salary package commensurate with experience
