A generous £1500 CPD allowance is also designed to drive your progress with 3-days CPD leave and RCVS, VDS and BVA membership paid. 5 weeks annual leave allowance (pro rata), plus blank holidays. 

Key accountabilities:

Joining our professional, personable team in the practice, you’ll deliver exceptional care by going beyond consulting to listen and empathising, putting patients and clients first, always.

As a qualified MRCVS, you’ll already have good experience gained in small animal practice.

Branch:

This exciting opportunity has arisen due to Ian McConnell Vet practice in Mossley joining our Medivet family.

The clinic is equipped with in house blood machine for working up medical cases. Clients are used to going to the Mossley 24 hour site for anything surgical and the hospital can be used as an extension of the practice.
