  • Full in-house laboratory and advanced diagnostics

  • Regular visits from experienced veterinary specialists

  • Loyal, engaged client base with a high proportion of insured pets

  • A close-knit team of experienced vets and qualified nurses who genuinely support each other

You’ll have the tools, time, and backing to practice excellent medicine properly.


The Role

This is a full-time, varied clinical role with exposure to both medicine and surgery:

  • Managing medical cases from consult through to work-up and follow-up

  • Performing routine and more complex surgical procedures

  • Using advanced diagnostics to support thorough case management

  • Delivering high-quality preventive care and client education

  • Building strong, long-term client relationships through clear communication

  • Enjoying a balanced roster with only one Saturday and one Sunday shift per month (on a rotating schedule)


What’s on Offer

  • Competitive salary package with regular reviews

  • Generous CPD allowance plus paid study leave

  • Excellent work-life balance with a fair, predictable roster

  • Access to wellbeing support, including confidential 24/7 mental health services

  • A genuinely supportive leadership team that prioritises your development and wellbeing

  • Long-term career progression in a stable, well-run hospital environment


About You

This role would suit a veterinarian who:

  • Has 3+ years’ experience in small animal practice

  • Is confident in medicine and routine surgery

  • Communicates clearly and compassionately with clients

  • Enjoys working as part of a collaborative, supportive team

  • Has an interest in orthopaedics (highly regarded, but not essential)

  • Is motivated to continue learning and developing clinically


Why This Role Is Different

You will be joining a well-established hospital with strong leadership, excellent facilities, visiting specialists, and a loyal client base that allows you to practise high-quality veterinary medicine properly. The roster is designed with sustainability in mind, and the culture is supportive, stable, and genuinely team-focused.
