The Role

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Veterinary Surgeon, who is looking to further their career within the realms of leadership & management. Previous experience is desirable; however, this unique opportunity may also suit a Veterinary Surgeon looking to take their first steps into a senior role. Great clinical exposure with regular soft tissue surgeries with some Orthopaedic exposure. Our consultation times have also recently been increased to 15mins. 

Typically, this position is 4/5 days per week, with 1:3 Saturdays only, however we understand that one size doesn’t necessarily fit all, and so we may be able to offer a degree of flexibility around this standard pattern. No OOH or On Call.
