Job description

Surgical Lead Vet – Greater London Area

Are you a dedicated and experienced Veterinary Surgeon with a passion for orthopaedics? This is an exceptional chance to elevate your career by joining an award-winning veterinary group as a Surgical Lead Vet, covering shifts across the vibrant London area.

Why This Role Stands Out

Imagine working within state-of-the-art, purpose-built surgeries designed with your wellbeing and the patient journey in mind. Each location is easily accessible within 30 minutes from central London by underground or overground, or 45 minutes by car. This role offers the flexibility to work across three surgeries in Greater London, providing a dynamic and varied work environment.

What You’ll Bring

The ideal candidate will be an AVP/Surgical Senior Vet or a certificate holder in orthopaedics. Beyond your clinical expertise, you’ll possess exceptional soft skills to seamlessly integrate into our surgery teams and build strong bonds with our customers and their pets. Your commitment to excellence in clinical care and customer service will be paramount, as will your ability to mentor and train colleagues to maintain these high standards.

Your Day-to-Day

This surgically-biased role includes morning and afternoon consultation appointments, allowing you to build the surgical caseload and conduct post-operative checks. You’ll also have dedicated daily admin time to ensure smooth operations. Flexibility is key, and while this is a full-time position, there is openness to considering a more adaptable arrangement to suit your lifestyle.

Exceptional Benefits

To attract and retain top talent, a comprehensive benefits package is offered, including:

• Up to £80,000 basic salary (depending on experience)
• 25 days holiday (FTE)
• Quarterly recognition payments
• Electric company car scheme worth £500 lease per month (or £200 per month car allowance + mileage expenses)
• Enhanced maternity & paternity pay
• Income protection
• Temporary on-site accommodation
• Boost employee benefits and discounts
• Health and wellbeing scheme
• Funded memberships
• Surgery discounts
• CPD allowance
• Internal leadership training
• Visa Sponsorship

Be Part of a Leading Veterinary Group

Join the UK’s largest independent, family-owned veterinary group, renowned for offering exceptional care in local communities. Our modern, light, and spacious surgeries are equipped with the latest technology, ensuring a top-tier environment for both clinical care and workplace satisfaction. Continual investment in team development means there’s never been a better time to become part of this thriving veterinary family.

Take the next step in your veterinary career and make a significant impact on the lives of pets and their families across Greater London.
