Mixed Veterinary Surgeon – Devon | Genuine Variety, Proper Support, Long Weekends

A well-established mixed practice in Mid Devon is on the lookout for a confident Mixed Vet to join their close-knit, collaborative team.

They’ve built a reputation for being more than just a workplace – this is a team that values balance, has each other’s backs, and enjoys the job. With a healthy mix of small animal, farm and equine work, this role offers proper variety in a supportive setting.

The Role

  • 4-day week as standard (part-time happily considered)

  • 1:8 OOH rota with RVN backup and a long weekend off after every weekend on-call

  • Working hours are 8am–6pm, and the team covers their own OOH, so you’ll retain true continuity of care

The team would especially welcome someone keen to grow the farm and equine side, though the caseload is very balanced and there’s room to lean into your strengths.

Whether you’re a generalist or have a passion in one area, there’s full flexibility to shape your week – and CPD is actively supported, including funding for certificates.

What’s on offer

  • Salary up to £60,000 depending on experience
  • 6.6 weeks annual leave including bank holidays
  • £1,750 CPD budget + certificate funding
  • Paid RCVS, VDS and other memberships
  • Enhanced family leave
  • Cycle to Work scheme & discounted vet fees
  • Company sick pay and regular career reviews

The Location
Based in beautiful Crediton, this location offers rural charm with fast links to Exeter and the coast. Whether you love your countryside or city amenities, Devon offers the best of both worlds.
