The Opportunity

Our client is looking for more than someone to fill a rota. They are seeking a veterinary surgeon who wants to help build and develop a truly high-standard clinical environment. You will play a key role in shaping protocols, mentoring the team, influencing operational decisions, and contributing to the long-term vision of the practice.

This is not a high-volume corporate environment. It is an opportunity to help create a practice you’d be proud to bring your own pets to.

Culture and Values

The practice is built on a clear, non-negotiable principle: kindness. To colleagues, to clients, and to patients. The team focuses on continual improvement, practical problem-solving, and creating an environment where people support one another and take pride in doing things well.

The practice charter reflects authentic values, not corporate slogans.

What We’re Looking For

·       An experienced, confident Veterinary Surgeon with a strong clinical background

·       Someone who understands what good practice looks like and wants to help build it

·       A professional who takes ownership, cares about outcomes, and values autonomy

·       A natural collaborator who mentors and elevates those around them

·       A resilient, optimistic individual who enjoys solving challenges

·       Kindness as a core professional trait

Role Responsibilities

·       Delivering high-quality first-opinion veterinary care

·       Developing and refining clinical protocols and standards

·       Supporting and mentoring veterinary and support teams

·       Contributing to practice development and strategic decisions

·       Engaging positively with clients and the local community

·       Identifying opportunities for service growth and improvement

·       Participating in a fair on-call rota

There is also scope to develop or expand clinical interests, including orthopaedics, exotics, or other specialisms.
