Job Description

Will your next career move be to join our hugely successful and established practice in Leicester Fosse Park? We are seeking a talented veterinary surgeon to join our team!

Our partners, Sameer and Shabbir, have a number of years' experience between them and are both practical, proactive and very approachable enabling great relationships and fostering opportunities. They now have two fantastic practices just 6 miles apart and at Fosse Park we have a large team consisting of 7 Vets, 7 Registered Veterinary Nurses, 3 Student Veterinary Nurses, 3 Animal Care Assistants and 7 Receptionists and a Practice Manager.

You will work with modern state of the art equipment including modern veterinary equipment for surgery including orthopaedic, soft tissue, digital x-ray, ultrasound, IDEXX blood machines and dental x-ray. Sameer routinely performs Orthopaedic surgery and we have a regular CT scanner visits every 4 weeks in partnership with Burgess Diagnostics.    

Each of our vets have a specific interest which makes a versatile and a well-rounded team. We are an RCVS accredited practice with robust set of protocols that are regularly changing to be in line with best practice and gold standard. We have strong organic growth. Our clients and their pets are at the centre of everything we do and we are looking for a vet who shares the same values as us. We are always open to ideas of how we can better ourselves, the team, and the care we provide, or build the practice further within our local community. Recently our hard work has recognised and we are proud to have been nominated for Petplan Practice of the Year 2021. 

Our nursing team have a very clinical mind set, like being part of schedule 3 procedures and helping the team out. 

This rewarding position is full time, 40 hours per week, and will include weekends work on 1:3 rota basis but no OOH, meaning all of our colleagues can enjoy an excellent work/life balance. 

Successful applicants will have good surgical and medical skills/a basic understanding and knowledge of exotics will be advantageous as we see these via the Pets at Home store. You should have good communication skills, be a team player, and enjoy the variety provided by the clients and colleagues. 

We really enjoy developing our colleague's careers and can support with study towards a certificate if you wish, and when the Partners take time off, the team support each other and our management team works really well together. 

Sameer and Shabbir are able to provide benefits that include: 

  • Competitive salary, dependent on experience 
  • Generous CPD allowance 
  • Exclusive company discounts 
  • Support towards Certificates and career development 
  • Free parking 
  • Branded uniform 
  • Paid professional fees 
  • Contributory pension scheme  
  • Death in service; 4 x annual salary    

Situated within a flag ship Pets a Home store, our practice has a large waiting room area, 6 consult rooms, a rainbow bridge room, a large prep area, 2 separate sterile theatres, separate dog, cat, isolation and exotic wards all on the main floor. On the ground floor is another consult room, office area, dental theatre, staff room and large corridor with an additional isolation area and wet room for potential use physio and hydrotherapy in the future.    

Our practice is based on the Grove Farm Triangle on the outskirts of Leicester, with easy access from the M1 and M69. Whether you prefer city or rural life in your free time, Leicester has plenty of variety with the city centre a 15 minute drive, Fosse Park shopping centre and quick walk, and nice rural living areas close by.
