Job description

A well-established, purpose-built practice in the stunning Cotswolds is now looking to welcome a Veterinary Surgeon to their friendly and experienced team!

This could be a fantastic next step for someone looking to move into a more senior role – or just as ideal for a vet in the earlier stages of their career seeking excellent support and progression opportunities.

️️ The current team is made up of 9 vets — a great mix of experience, including 3 vets with over 6 years in practice, and 6 vets within their first five years post-graduation. There’s a real culture of support, both professionally and socially — think regular team lunches, BBQs, and even camping weekends! ️

OOH is covered in-house, allowing vets to see cases through from start to finish — but there’s flexibility if OOH isn’t your thing.

This practice also partners with a local Blue Cross Centre, offering a brilliant opportunity to gain hands-on experience in neutering, dentistry, and more.

The role:

• Ideally full-time (4-day week)
• Share of Saturday and on-call rota
• Flexibility around OOH if required

Location Perks: Nestled in the heart of the Cotswolds, the location offers the best of both worlds — peaceful countryside living with excellent links to Bristol and London via rail . Plus, on-site accommodation is available for those relocating!

What’s on offer:

• 15-minute consults
• Protected admin time ️
• Salary up to £65,000
• Generous CPD budget
• 25 days holiday + BH ️
• Full Visa sponsorship
• VDS + RCVS fees paid
• Employee discount scheme
• Supportive, experienced team and strong progression opportunities

This is a great opportunity to join a collaborative team, work in a beautiful location, and enjoy a varied and rewarding caseload — all while having easy access to vibrant city life in Bristol!

To be considered:

• MRCVS (Or eligibilty to join RCVS)
• Minumum x1years UK experience)
• Up to date CPD
