Are you a dedicated veterinarian looking to elevate your career in a supportive and forward-thinking environment? This independent small animal hospital nestled in the picturesque Hertfordshire countryside, is seeking a passionate vet to join their esteemed team. With a rich history spanning over 120 years and an RCVS-accredited status since 1985, this practice is committed to excellence in patient and client care, continually investing in state-of-the-art equipment and training. Imagine working in a place where your professional growth is nurtured by a friendly, close-knit team of 16 experienced vets. Here, you'll have the opportunity to manage a diverse array of cases in-house, from soft tissue surgeries to orthopaedics. The team's varied interests and specialisations, ranging from internal medicine and cardiac ultrasound to emergency and critical care, ensure a rich learning environment. Plus, with an extensive refurbishment on the horizon, you'll be part of an exciting phase of growth and innovation. This role is perfect for a vet with a few years of experience who's ready to take the next step in their career. Whether you have a specific passion or are eager to explore new areas of veterinary medicine, you'll find the right mix of interesting cases, hands-on support, and funding to help you advance, including the possibility of starting a certificate. While an interest in ophthalmology would be a bonus, it's not essential. To ease your transition, you'll be paired with a buddy vet during your induction. Join a practice where collaboration and knowledge-sharing are part of daily life. You'll work alongside a supportive team, discussing tricky cases, scrubbing in on new procedures, and mentoring new graduates. The daily schedule is designed with support in mind, ensuring you're never without a second opinion or a spare pair of hands. Regular in-house CPD sessions and an active clinical WhatsApp group mean there's always something new to learn. Enjoy a balanced work-life schedule with a 4-day week and an early finish once a week. For seven weeks out of nine, you'll finish at 1 pm, effectively working a 3.5-day week. For the remaining two weeks, the early finish is at 5 pm. The rota is flexible, accommodating part-time positions if needed. Weekends are split to ensure no one works a full weekend on call, enhancing everyone's work-life balance. Bonus pay is offered for any procedures carried out when on call, and an RVN is on-site 24/7 for inpatient care. Located in a charming market town with excellent amenities, including cafés, restaurants, and great schools, all set against beautiful rolling countryside. The practice is conveniently located near a leisure centre and a large park, perfect for lunchtime walks. The area offers a plethora of outdoor activities and excellent transport links, including direct trains to London and Cambridge and proximity to Stansted Airport. Benefits
- Salary up to £82,000 - Fully supported and funded CPD, including certificates - Sabbaticals available - Five weeks' holiday plus
