Are you searching for a role that truly offers a work-life balance and can be tailored to your interests? Do you want to be part of a team that provides real career progression, supported by practitioners with recognised certificates?
Established in 2020 and having just expanded their facilities, this family-run, independent small animal practice is looking to grow their team of 20 passionate professionals and is offering an incredibly exciting opportunity for a veterinary surgeon with a little bit of experience under their belt. The practice is committed not only to the care of their patients, but also to fostering a positive, supportive working environment. This role is ideal for someone who has a passion for building strong client relationships, enjoys a varied caseload, and appreciates being part of a close-knit team. And yes, being willing to make the occasional cup of tea is a bonus!
The team currently includes 5 Veterinary Surgeons, some of whom hold certificates in Small Animal Ophthalmology and Small Animal Surgery. You will also work alongside a friendly group of Nurses and support staff, all dedicated to helping each other succeed.
