We are looking for a Veterinary Surgeon to join our supportive and thoughtful team, who strive to offer the best standards of care to their clients and their pets. 

We have been open for 4 1/2 years and have an ultrasound, in house lab and x-ray. We also convert our x-ray room in to a euthanasia room so that it is more comfortable and not so clinical for those difficult times.

We have 4 qualified nurses, 1 trainee nurse, 1 VCA and 3 receptionists.

a chat. We are a member of the practice standards scheme and have an outstanding award for client service, we take great pride in being known to the public for our friendly, welcoming service.

have a varied caseload and you should be flexible and work well under pressure. Animal welfare is important to us, and you should share the same ethos. 

The role is full or part time due to flexibility within the team and will include weekends on a 1 in 2 rota basis and no OOHs. Flexible working
is readily available with school hours an option. There will be occasional sole charge, but only once you are comfortable with this. We are happy to take on a new graduate, will be happy to consider anyone and their different circumstances! 

As you would expect from the market leader in small animal veterinary care, we offer: 

• Excellent career opportunities and development due to our varied case load
• Salary £35,000 + depending on experience
• Contributory pension scheme 
• Generous CPD
• Funding of certificates for the right candidate
