Larwood & Kennedy, Norfolk are hiring a New Graduate Vet!

We have such an amazing team here at Larwood and Kennedy and there is a warm family feel throughout the practice, which is reflected day to day in how we treat our patients, as if they were our own. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who wants to develop their career and work alongside a friendly, dedicated team.

This is what some of our vets on the CVS Graduate Programme say:

“Throughout my first year as a new graduate on the CVS Graduate Scheme I have felt very supported both in my practice and externally through being a part of CVS. The practical CPD we get to do is definitely my favourite part as it also provides an opportunity to network with other fellow graduates while covering some essential topics for first opinion practice. I would highly recommend the programme to any new graduate as it provides a supported and structured start into your veterinary career.”

“My favourite part of working as a new graduate vet for CVS are the opportunities offered by such a large cooperation. The experience and possibilities are great when you are trying to find your own path according to your passion. The CPD offered is also invaluable and there is a great support network.”
