Job description

We are seeking Veterinary Surgeons who thrive in the fast-paced world of ECC and are excited to be part of our night service at our new 24/7 hospital in Warrington.

Our transparent pricing structure means that accessing veterinary care out of hours is more affordable than ever. With an £79 out-of-hours consultation fee, our service is accessible when pets need us most. The night team is fully supported by our first-opinion and referral services operating during the day, ensuring excellent continuity of care and clinical support.

Warrington is the next exciting addition to our growing group, and we’re proud to be opening a brand-new 24/7 veterinary hospital designed to deliver exceptional care across first opinion, referral, and out-of-hours services.

This state-of-the-art facility has been thoughtfully designed with both patients and teams in mind. The hospital will feature seven consultation rooms, a dedicated end-of-life room, three theatres, separate dog and cat wards, isolation facilities, a fully equipped dental suite, diagnostics suite, and a digital X-ray room.

Built to the high standards we’re known for, the hospital will also include spacious, modern staff areas, ensuring a supportive, comfortable working environment for our teams as we continue to grow and invest in the future of veterinary care.

About animal Trust

Animal Trust stands out from other veterinary services. Firstly, we are a unique non-profit, Community Interest Company. Our primary focus isn't solely on maximising profits; instead, we are dedicated to delivering on our mission and ensuring enough profit to sustain our business in the long term.

Our vision is clear: No pet should go untreated or face euthanasia when there is a viable treatment option. We firmly believe that pet ownership should be accessible to all, acknowledging that individuals earning the Real Living Wage may encounter challenges in affording veterinary care when their pet falls ill. In response, we aim to assist. Our free consultations and transparent pricing enable our vets and nurses to break down the barriers that stand in the way of pets receiving the treatment they need
