Job description

Our Group:

At Pet Practice, we are an exciting, independent, growing veterinary group that has been giving a fresh look to working in the veterinary sector for the past fifteen years. We are not a corporate focused on profit to the detriment of our clients and staff. With thirteen practices, we are neither a small independent at risk from competition or takeover nor a large corporate. We have the security of being a sizeable veterinary group but with the benefits and personal touch of being family owned. Independent is what we love and how we will remain. We do not lock our staff into working for us under the premise of joint ventures or other restrictions. At Pet Practice, we lead the way in staff packages and are proud that all income earned is reinvested into our staff and facilities. We have led in salaries, holidays (up to six weeks per annum), and scheduled major refits every ten years to keep our clinics modern. We continue to grow, adding new practices, and invest in our team and facilities.

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