Not Yet Advertised - Apply Early to avoid missing out!

Looking for a genuine mixed role with balance, flexibility, and support? We’re working exclusively with a busy, independent practice offering a rare chance to join a friendly, down-to-earth team handling a true mix of small animal and farm cases.

This position is ideal for a vet who enjoys variety. The team works collaboratively, sharing knowledge and supporting one another in a well-equipped, modern clinic that values development without micromanagement.

What makes this role stand out?

  • Real mix: SA consults, surgeries, diagnostics, plus routine farm calls
  • No equine work required
  • Great rota: 1 night on-call per week & 1 in 4 weekends
  • Based in a tight-knit community with a loyal client base
  • Supportive team with space to grow clinically and professionally

What They’re Looking For:

  • While ideally suited to someone with 1+ year of experience, vets with 6 months or more of solid mixed exposure will still be considered, provided they’re confident handling basic cases and farm calls independently
  • Confident with small animal surgeries (spays, castrations, lump removals)
  • Competent with farm work, including calving and basic emergencies
  • Comfortable working across both small and large animal
  • VCI-registered (or eligible for registration)
  • Someone ready to join a relaxed, positive work environment

What’s on Offer:

  • Competitive salary 
  • CPD budget + 5 days CPD leave
  • Paid Leave for maternity and sick etc 
  • Employee discounts
  • Pension contributions
  • Career progression opportunities
  • ​​​​​​​And more

If you're a mixed vet looking for a change  — this could be the role you’ve been waiting for.
