Job Description: Our client is seeking an experienced Small Animal Veterinary Surgeon to join a supportive first-opinion setting offering either full-time or part-time hours.

  • Confidence managing routine medical and surgical cases independently
  • An interest in developing further clinical skills or a specific area of expertise
  • Strong communication skills and a cooperative approach to case management
  • Suitable post-graduate experience, as this position is not intended for a new graduate

Package:

  • Choice of full-time or part-time working arrangements
  • Shared out-of-hours rota of approximately 1-in-6 with nursing support
  • 6.6 weeks of paid annual leave including bank holidays
