Are you looking for a role where you can really thrive both professionally and personally?

We’re on the lookout for an experienced Vet with a passion for surgery to join our friendly and supportive team at Kingswood Vets in Woking.

This role is flexible and we can accommodate full time or part time hours, with just 1 in 4 Saturdays (and you’ll get time off in lieu). We understand that life outside of work matters too so we’ll work with you to find the right setup.

A bit about us

Kingswood Vets is a long standing practice at the heart of the local community. In 2018, we moved into a purpose built hospital with everything you would expect: 4 consult rooms, 2 theatres, dental and imaging suites, and separate dog and cat wards. We see a great mix of well insured clients who want the best for their pets, as well as fulfilling charity work for the RSPCA and others.

Location

Woking is a great spot you’ll find loads to enjoy locally, from scenic walks in the Surrey Hills and RHS Garden Wisley, to golf courses, theatres, galleries, and National Trust sites. Fancy a trip to the city or coast? London Waterloo is just 30 minutes away by train, and you can be by the sea in under an hour. Heathrow, Gatwick, the M3, and M25 are all nearby too.

The team

We’re a down to earth, close knit team made up of 9 Vets, 5 RVNs, 4 Student Nurses, and an incredible support crew. We’ve got a surgery certificate holder, a dental vet, an imager, and an ophthalmology certificate holder in house, plus visiting specialists in cardiology and orthopaedics so there’s always someone to learn from or bounce ideas off.
