We’re offering a position with clinical freedom, a supportive multi vet team, well equipped theatres, and future partnership potential for the right person. If you’re ready to take the next step in your career, we’d love to talk.

Why Norwich & Why Us

Norwich is one of those rare places that strikes the perfect balance: vibrant city life, beautiful countryside, and the coast just 30 minutes away. Whether you love architecture, independent shops, the Broads, or long walks on the beach, you’ll find your lifestyle here.

Across Norwich we have three individually owned and run Vets for Pets practices. You’ll be primarily based at Hall Road, but with occasional flexibility to support our other sites.

At Longwater, you’ll join a 4 vet team (including a new graduate), supported by 6 brilliant nurses, VCAs, and an experienced admin team. Our vets hold special interests in orthopaedics, soft tissue surgery, and feline medicine, creating a collaborative environment where clinical discussion and development are part of everyday life.

We’re purpose built, well equipped, and backed by a regional team who actively support leadership development - ideal if you’re looking to grow into a senior or future partner role.
