Job description

Our team at Stechford Vets4Pets now have an exciting opportunity for a veterinary surgeon to join us!

You’ll be joining a supportive team led by Iulian Staicu MRCVS, who graduated in Romania and opened his practice in Stechford in 2017. The team has gone from strength to strength in that time and now consists of 1 other experienced vet, 4 RVNs, an SVN and our dedicated Practice Administrator and CCAs. Together we offer a collaborative work environment that will ensure the best levels of support and care.

We’re looking for a vet with great communication skills with clients and colleagues alike. You’ll have good general surgical and medical skills and be confident in all routine surgeries as well as being comfortable with sole charge at times.

This role is ideally a full-time role including 1 in 3 Saturdays, however we know this is not for everyone so if you are looking for part time hours please get in touch!

Consults are a standard 20 minutes long as we understand the importance of a work/life balance and so we make sure there is time in the diary to do reports and admin work.

In addition to a rewarding role in a growing community, you can also expect to receive:

• No OOH, on call or Sundays
• Paid holiday of 28 days, rising to 33 days after 2 years of service
• Paid professional memberships including RCVS, BVA, BSAVA and VDS
• Dedicated CPD allowance and time off including funding towards a certificate.
• Life assurance 4 x annual salary
• Contributory pension scheme
• Cycle to work scheme.
• Colleague reward hub – exclusive offers and discounts online and on the high street, including 20% off at Pets at Home, Vets4Pets and the Groom Room
• Free car parking

The practice also benefits from not only being close to Birmingham City Centre but also great transport links including the motorway network M6/M42 and Birmingham International Airport. Birmingham itself has a strong infrastructure and offers a diverse range of activities and events meaning there really is something for everyone to enjoy!

Our team would also be happy to have an informal chat with anyone considering this role.If you’re based further afield, we would be happy to arrange a phone or video call to begin with.
