The working environment is supportive and collaborative, with consistency of care being a key focus.

The Role

You’ll be working within a well-structured team, managing a varied caseload of consults and surgeries. Clinical freedom is encouraged, and there’s strong support from senior vets and Practice Partners. This role offers scope to develop your own clinical interests, with certificate study actively supported.

Candidate Requirements

The ideal candidate will be RCVS registered, confident with routine consults and neutering, and eager to continue developing their skills. A positive, team-oriented attitude and excellent communication skills are essential.
