Job description

Our Group:

At Pet Practice, we are an exciting, independent, growing veterinary group that has been redefining the veterinary sector for the past fifteen years. We are not a corporate focused solely on profit at the expense of our clients and staff. With thirteen practices, we are neither a small independent at risk of takeover nor a large corporate. We enjoy the security of being a sizeable veterinary group while maintaining the benefits and personal touch of being family-owned. Independence is our core value, and we plan to remain so. We do not restrict our staff through joint ventures or hidden restrictions. At Pet Practice, we lead in staff packages and reinvest all income earned back into our staff and facilities. We have pioneered competitive salaries, extended holiday allowances of up to six weeks for nurses and vets, and schedule major refits of our clinics every ten years to keep them modern. We continue to grow and add new practices to our group.

Our staff’s loyalty is built on mutual respect and working with your needs to create a suitable role. No on-call duties and flexible rotas ensure a healthy work-life balance. Hear what our staff have to say on our website recruitment page.

Our Basingstoke Vacancy:

Our new Basingstoke surgery is now open, equipped with modern facilities including digital radiography, ultrasonography, and an Idexx in-house laboratory. It has dedicated surgical facilities for both our use and visiting referral surgeons. Located adjacent to a new Pets Corner in the busy Chineham Retail Park, it benefits from high footfall.

We are seeking dynamic vets with at least two years’ experience to join our team. The initial shared rota will include sole charge but will be supported by our owner Ben, visiting orthopaedic and soft tissue referral surgeons, as well as 25 surgeons, 100 staff, and on-site nurses across the group. We pride ourselves on our team-oriented approach.

The Package:

• Salary £50,000 to £80,000, depending on experience and hours
• Full-time: 4-day week and every other Saturday morning; part-time options available
• No on-call duties, no Sundays, no bank holidays
• Up to six weeks’ leave plus additional time
• Loyalty bonus scheme
• Staff recruitment reward scheme
• Encouraged CPD with a generous budget
• RCVS and VDS fees paid
• Staff animals treated at cost
