This is an exciting and rare opportunity for a dynamic and commercially driven Veterinary Surgeon to co-own a cluster of four practices in the Southeast London area through the Medivet Partnership model. We are seeking a motivated Operational Partner with strong leadership experience to take ownership of both clinical and operational performance across this group of practices. Working in true partnership with Medivet, you will play a key role in delivering exceptional patient care, driving business growth, and empowering teams.
As an Operational Partner, you will own equity in the practices giving you autonomy to run your practices locally with the support from Medivet’s central support functions.

This role is ideal for a vet who wishes to split their time between clinical work and non-clinical leadership and operational responsibilities. The role will also involve mentoring and coaching the teams where required.
This role oversees a diverse cluster of practices across Southeast London in the Bromley and Woolwich areas. You will lead and inspire a team of veterinary professionals and support colleagues, creating an environment where people can thrive while ensuring the delivery of exceptional patient and client care.

- Maintain compliance with clinical, regulatory, and operational standards
- Identify opportunities to grow and develop the practices, with support from your Network Director
- Deliver sustainable business growth through effective planning and execution
- Optimise resources, rotas, and workflows to maximise efficiency
