Job Details

Our fantastic Independent client are looking for an Emeregency and Critical Care Vet to join their night team on a permanent basis.

The night vets work split shifts, either 4pm-12.30am or 10.30pm-9.30am, to allow them to pursue their passion for ECC without becoming exhausted. The team understand that some of the best ECC vets require flexible working so we will consider both full-time and part-time applicants. With 2 in 5 weekends, no requirement to cover weekend or Bank Holiday day shifts, and an average of 35h per week, all night vets enjoy an excellent work-life balance. 

The role will involve seeing first-opinion emergencies and providing continuous care for inpatients and referral cases. The team are looking for a vet who is enthusiastic about emergency and critical care and ideally has some experience in this field (although not necessarily in a sole-charge or out-of-hours capacity). You will have a desire to achieve high clinical standards, and work within evidence-based medicine where possible. Due to the sometimes stressful and fast-paced nature of emergency work, you must have excellent communication skills. Most of all you should have a team-mentality as this is a close-knit, friendly practice.

This is an RCVS accredited practice with genuinely friendly, approachable managers and directors.

On offer is:
* Basic salary of £40-57.5k dependent on experience and further qualifications.
* £1500 CPD allowance plus 35h paid per year to complete CPD. Further support for certificates available and encouraged.
* VDS fees paid, as well as one subscription of your choice (eg. BSAVA, VECCS, VIN).
* 5.6 weeks’ holiday per year (non-annualised hours contract)
* Excellent working relationships with our Member Practices.
* High clinical standards with extensive point-of-care diagnostics available to facilitate this.
* Interesting, varied caseload with lovely, committed clients who want the best for their pets.
* Support overnight from a fantastic team of night RVNs and ANAs.
* On-site Specialists and Advanced Practitioners in cardio-respiratory medicine, imaging, ECC and endoscopy.
* Exposure to a wide range of equipment including CT, laparoscopy and extensive in-house blood machines.
* Lots of other benefits including enhanced sick pay, private health insurance, discount for staff pets, ability to bring your dog to work, on-site free parking, and contributory pension scheme.
