Night Veterinary Surgeon – 7 on / 21 off

Are you a night owl who thrives in the quiet hours? A 24-hour hospital in Ashton is looking for a dedicated Night Vet to join their team on a 7 nights on, 21 nights off rota.

You’ll be working in a 5–6 vet hospital with plans to grow, supported at night by an experienced Night RVN and a Twilight PCA during the busier early hours. The day teams value clear handovers and strong communication to ensure seamless patient care. Previous OOH experience is desirable, but support is available for those looking to step into their first dedicated night role.

The Role

  • 7 nights on, 21 nights off

  • Sole charge with nursing support overnight

  • Mix of emergency cases, inpatient care and continuity

What’s on Offer

  • Salary and package designed for a sustainable night rota

  • 5 weeks annual leave plus bank holidays (increasing with service)

  • Private Medical Insurance

  • Paid professional memberships (RCVS, VDS, BVA)

  • £1,500 CPD allowance + 3 paid CPD days, with further certificate support

  • Internal CPD and certificate funding

  • Relocation support & Visa sponsorship available

  • Discounts on products and services

  • And much more! 

Why this role?
The rota offers true work–life balance, with extended time off to rest, travel or focus on personal projects. You’ll have the back-up of experienced colleagues and the chance to build your skills in ECC and inpatient care within a supportive 24-hour setting.
