Independent Practice | Cardiff | Up to £70,000 + Bonus | 4-Day Week | No OOH

Not every veterinary job is the same. Some promise work-life balance but leave you exhausted. Some promise support but leave you figuring things out alone. This isn't one of those practices. I'm working exclusively with an exceptional independent small animal practice just outside Cardiff city centre that's built its reputation around two simple beliefs:

  • Happy vets provide the very best patient care.
  • Great teams stay together.

As they continue to grow, they're looking for another Veterinary Surgeon to join their close-knit, experienced team. Whether you're an experienced clinician or looking for a practice that will genuinely invest in your development, this is an opportunity where you'll be encouraged, supported and appreciated from day one.

Why You'll Want to Work Here

Forget corporate targets and feeling like just another employee. Here you'll become part of a genuinely welcoming team where collaboration comes naturally, ideas are encouraged and everyone has each other's backs. You'll have access to modern, purpose-built facilities, an incredibly varied caseload and the clinical freedom to practise medicine the way it should be practised. Even better... No out-of-hours. The practice provides its own 24-hour care through a dedicated overnight team, meaning you can finish your shift, head home and actually enjoy your evenings.

The Role

You'll enjoy a varied caseload including:

  • First opinion consultations
  • Routine and more advanced surgical procedures
  • Medical work-ups and case management
  • Emergency presentations

Working alongside experienced vets, nurses and support staff who genuinely enjoy what they do. This is a 40-hour position across just four days, with only 1 in 6 weekends, giving you plenty of time away from work to enjoy everything Cardiff and South Wales have to offer.

What's On Offer?

Salary: £45,000-£70,000 depending on experience. Alongside a highly competitive salary you'll also receive:

  • Performance bonus scheme
  • Profit sharing
  • UK Visa Sponsorship available
  • Relocation package available
  • 4-day working week
  • No night shifts
  • 29 days annual leave plus your birthday off
  • Annual loyalty bonus after 3 years
  • £2,000 CPD allowance plus 5 days paid CPD leave
  • Certificate funding and genuine career progression
  • RCVS & VDS memberships paid
  • Paid lunch breaks
  • Gym membership
  • Staff pet discounts
  • Free uniform
  • Free on-site parking
  • Company pension (5% employee / 3% employer)
  • State-of-the-art equipment
  • A supportive leadership team that genuinely values its people

Who They're Looking For

You'll be an MRCVS Veterinary Surgeon with a passion for delivering excellent patient care. You'll ideally be confident with routine consultations and surgery, although vets looking to continue developing their skills are equally encouraged to apply. Most importantly, they're looking for someone who enjoys being part of a team, values collaboration and wants to work somewhere they'll feel appreciated. Applicants currently based in the UK or overseas requiring sponsorship are both welcome.

Your Next Move Starts Here

If you've been waiting for a role that combines clinical freedom, genuine work-life balance, career development and a fantastic team culture, this could be exactly what you've been searching for. I'd love to tell you more about the practice, the team and why people genuinely enjoy working here. Apply today or get in touch for a confidential conversation.
