• A 1:6 on-call rota, with calls from home (no phones or inpatient checks), fairly shared and paid with overtime for time spent in practice
• 6 weeks\' holiday (including bank holidays)
• £600 CPD allowance plus CPD/training support
• RCVS fees paid plus another membership of your choice
• VDS cover
• Health Shield scheme (from dentistry to sports massage)
• Enhanced maternity, paternity, adoption, and shared parental leave
• Discounted vet fees
• Cycle to work scheme
• "My Perks" discounts on shopping, travel, entertainment and more
• Company sick pay, annual pay reviews, and a real focus on wellbeing
• Genuine career progression opportunities within a team that supports student training and exam success
