Job description

Overview

Salary up to £60,000 FTE DOE plus Relocation Allowance up to £5,000

We are looking for a full time or part time veterinary surgeon to join our Hyde team. This is a part time position with a minimum of 20 hours per week with a share of Saturday mornings, with time given back in lieu. This role would suit a vet with a consulting or medical bias but because this is a position of growth we can be flexible and would love to tailor a suitable role for the right candidate.

We offer no OOH and a competitive salary. Duties include providing high quality clinical care to all pets and outstanding client experience and help to create and maintain an efficient clinic.

About Us

At White Cross Vets, we have 21 clinics across the UK. All of our clinics have teams with different interests, with team members undergoing further training by certificates or having those that have achieved certificate status. Being part of something bigger, offers a fantastic level of support on a wider group level and allows us to grow and develop a higher quality first opinion pet care, whilst providing internal career progression opportunities. Our veterinary team enjoy all aspects of general veterinary practice and have a wealth of experience.

Enhance your skills

Our Clinic Director has an internal medicine certificate and alongside our other Senior Vet, loves to tackle all aspect of soft tissue surgery. Our Senior Vet has a certificate in dentistry and is offering a referral service to the White Cross Group. In addition to this one of our other vets has a keen interest in exotic pets and is starting her exotic certificate this year. The team are extremely passionate about providing a gold standard first opinion service and feel that having a vet with a consultation or medical bias, would offer support and development in this area.

Collaboration

The Hyde practice has a close link with our Walkden clinic with the Clinic Director at Hyde also being the Clinic Director at Walkden and this increases the services we can offer even further. At Walkden we have a strong surgical team and also an Advanced Practitioner with an interest in Dermatology. Further to this the Hyde practice has a strong nursing team with anaesthetic certificate holders, surgical certificate holders and a nurse with a keen interest in diagnostic imaging. The Hyde practice has great facilities including 4 consult rooms, cat ward, dog ward, operating theatre, digital x-ray, dental x-ray, ultrasound and access to endoscope if needed. There is a fantastic opportunity for the successful candidate to lead consultation development, alongside the HVN. As a group we fully support further training/certification.

One of the best parts of working at Hyde is the enthusiastic team who work closely together. We love to bond over our shared love of food with regular meals out together, along with regularly partaking in some serious competition with the local pub quiz and "Breakout" rooms. There are also some very active members of the team, who join forces in training for 10k's and our weekly Fitbit challenge.
