Job Description

They’re looking for an enthusiastic Part Time ECC Night Vet to join their out-of-hours team. The rota includes working Friday and Saturday nights from 7pm to 8:30am on a two-weekend-on, two-weekend-off basis. There’s also the opportunity to pick up additional night shifts for holiday cover if you wish. They’re happy to discuss alternative hours and can be flexible for the right candidate.

You’ll be part of a progressive team working in a Centre of Excellence. Our hospital is RCVS-accredited as a Small Animal Hospital, a status achieved by only a small percentage of practices across the UK. They take pride in maintaining high clinical standards and fostering a truly supportive team culture.

On shift, you’ll be supported by a dedicated Night Nurse, a Twilight Phone Triage Nurse, a Twilight ACA, and, at times, an additional Twilight Vet. This collaborative setup ensures you’ll never feel alone during even the busiest nights.

If you’re passionate about emergency care and want to thrive in a progressive, well-equipped hospital environment, this role offers a fulfilling opportunity to do just that.
