RCVS-registered Veterinary Surgeon

Job description

There’s a new kind of veterinary practice opening just outside Watford, and it’s been designed with a pretty straightforward idea in mind: give vets the time, tools and support to do their best work.

This brand-new clinic is taking a fresh approach to general practice, combining modern technology with a personal approach to caring for pets and their owners.

The team is now looking for an additional Veterinary Surgeon to join them and help shape this exciting new venture.

This means proper time with your patients, clinical freedom to make decisions based on what you think is right, and technology that is there to make your working day easier — rather than simply adding another layer of admin.

It's a chance to join something new without having to compromise on the things that matter: good medicine, good relationships with clients and a working life that actually feels sustainable.

What to Expect

• A brand-new, purpose-built clinic designed around modern veterinary care
• A collaborative and experienced clinical team
• A dedicated remote digital care team providing an additional layer of support
• Structured diaries with proper time to consult, think and reset
• Clinical freedom to provide care that works for the individual patient and client
• Technology designed to reduce admin and give you more time for clinical work
• Thoughtful onboarding and training
• A team that is genuinely open to new ideas and better ways of working

You’ll Be a Great Fit If You…

You're an RCVS-registered Veterinary Surgeon with at least two years' general practice experience, who enjoys good clinical medicine but is also looking for something a little different.

You’ll ideally be someone who:

• Communicates with empathy and integrity
• Is confident in first-opinion practice
• Enjoys working collaboratively and sharing ideas
• Has a genuine interest in doing things differently
• Has a can-do attitude and would enjoy helping shape a brand-new clinic
• Wants to keep learning and developing throughout their career

What You’ll Get

• £50,000–£85,000, depending on experience and skills
• Unlimited CPD budget
• Plenty of opportunities for career development
• Employee Assistance Programme and mental health support
• A supportive, progressive team that genuinely wants to improve veterinary care

Ready for Something Different?

If you're a Veterinary Surgeon looking for a role where you can do good clinical work, have a proper work-life balance and actually help shape the way a new practice operates, this could be an interesting next step.
