Job description

This practice in London is seeking a Veterinary Surgeon with a passion for both general practice and surgery to join its busy, modern small animal practice. This is an excellent opportunity for a confident clinician looking to develop a varied medical and surgical caseload while enjoying continuity of care, clinical autonomy, and the support of a collaborative and experienced team.

The successful candidate will work alongside two experienced Veterinary Surgeons, a graduate vet, Registered Veterinary Nurses and a dedicated support team in a well-established practice with a loyal client base. Unlike many city practices, this offers the opportunity to build surgical experience and pursue long-term career development, including support towards postgraduate certificates.

The role offers a four-day working week, with part-time applications also welcomed, alongside a 1 in 6 weekend rota. The practice is well-equipped with modern facilities and benefits from an excellent location close to Clapham Junction, providing an enjoyable working environment in the heart of London.

An excellent benefits package is available, including private medical insurance, life assurance, five weeks' annual leave plus bank holidays. Professional development is actively encouraged through a £1,500 CPD allowance with three days of paid CPD leave, funded certificate opportunities, RCVS, VDS and BVA memberships are fully funded, with visa sponsorship and sabbatical opportunities also available for eligible candidates.

This position is ideally suited to a Veterinary Surgeon with a keen interest in surgery who is looking to further develop their clinical skills within a supportive team and a progressive practice.
