Veterinary Surgeon – Kildare

Join a modern, high quality small animal practice in Kildare with state‑of‑the‑art equipment and a loyal client base built over years of exceptional care. Work alongside a talented, long‑standing team of certificate‑holding vets and experienced nurses in a genuinely supportive and collaborative environment. Enjoy a varied, fulfilling role with opportunities to grow your clinical skills, supported by a strong Graduate Academy and ongoing professional development. Benefit from a competitive salary and generous benefits package, plus a flexible full‑time schedule designed to promote a healthy work‑life balance.

An exciting opportunity awaits an ambitious Veterinary Surgeon to join a well‑established and modern small animal practice in County Kildare. Renowned for its commitment to clinical excellence and compassionate care, this busy first‑opinion hospital has built a loyal client base and is proud of its reputation within the community.

Home to a long‑standing team of experienced professionals—including certificate‑holding vets, skilled veterinary nurses, and dedicated support staff—this practice offers a truly collaborative and positive environment. With state‑of‑the‑art equipment including digital radiography, ultrasound, and in‑house lab capabilities, you’ll have the tools you need to deliver high quality veterinary care while continually developing your skills.

In this full‑time, permanent role, you’ll take on a varied caseload encompassing consultations, medical case work‑ups, soft tissue surgery, and dentistry. The position is ideal for a confident junior veterinarian eager to thrive in a busy, team‑focused setting.

A supportive Graduate Academy and ongoing professional development resources are provided to help you reach your full potential.

This role comes with a flexible schedule, comprehensive benefits, and a welcoming, growth‑oriented culture that puts both people and pets at the heart of everything it does.
