Due to the continued growth of our practice and changes within our clinical team, we're looking for an experienced Veterinary Surgeon to join us.

Someone who enjoys practising high-quality veterinary medicine, communicates brilliantly with clients and colleagues, and brings positivity, enthusiasm and great energy to the practice.
A Practice That Supports Great Veterinary Medicine This is a fantastic opportunity for a confident GP vet who enjoys a varied caseload and wants the time and support to work cases thoroughly.

More Than Just Colleagues Our team culture is something we're incredibly proud of.
We're a close-knit group who enjoy spending time together both inside and outside of work, whether that's paddleboarding, sporting events, meals out or simply catching up socially.
We're looking for someone who wants to be part of that culture — someone who enjoys supporting colleagues, sharing ideas and contributing positively to the team.
About You You'll be: An MRCVS Veterinary Surgeon with experience in first opinion practice.
Confident managing a varied medical and surgical caseload.
