Job description

Night Vet (Maternity Cover) - MiNightVet Bristol - Salary up to £60k FTE depending on experience

Would you like to try nights for a year before deciding if it's for you? Are you looking for a new clinical challenge, whilst maintaining a great work-life balance? Would you like to work with a varied and interesting caseload within a Hospital in Bristol?

If yes, this opportunity is just what you are looking for as we are looking for an OOH Small Animal Vet to join our night team from August for a year!

We are seeking a motivated, enthusiastic, and caring Vet to join us at our dedicated out of hours service in Bristol.

Our MiNightVet service complements our fantastic day team within Highcroft Veterinary Hospital, Bristol. Conveniently located within Bristol but away from the city centre; ideal transport links if needed, (20 minutes to Temple Meads Train Station and Bristol Airport).

Our facilities include CT, digital x-ray, ultrasound, endoscopy, laparoscopy, multi-parameter monitoring and a wide range of instrumentation to perform specialist orthopaedic surgery.

Our amazing team consists of certificate holders in surgery, exotics, ophthalmology, imaging, ECC, cardiology, and medicine to provide support as needed. We have our own exotics department who will provide support as needed in the evening for exotic cases.

We pride ourselves on high standards of care and are looking for like-minded vets, who share these same principles.

You will enjoy a rota pattern of 7 nights on, 14 nights off (8pm-9am) - holiday and CPD allowance worked into rest period. You will not be required to work any other days alongside this. However, we embrace flexible working and would be very happy to discuss a reduced number of nights per month, if you are looking for a part-time role. Tell us what works for you!

Each shift you will be supported by a twilight vet until midnight with 2 RVN's all night and 2 PCA's during each night shift. The team are friendly, approachable and get on well. Many of the night team choose to work a combination of days and nights which means we have a great working atmosphere between days and nights and see ourselves as one.

Our standard benefits include:

• Receive an extra day's leave each year in your first 5 years at CVS
• Cycle to work scheme and subsidised gym membership
• Enhanced Maternity, Paternity and Adoption pay
• Employee Assistance Programme
• Pension scheme – automatic enrolment and completely hassle-free
• Access to First Aid for Mental Health and Wellbeing Champions across CVS and 300 trained CVS colleagues in this role
• Colleague discount on pet products and treatments including free consults, cost price drugs and a discount to our online pharmacy, Animed.
• Access to the company share-save scheme
