Small Animal Veterinary Surgeon – Limerick

We’re pleased to be working with a progressive, independent-minded practice in Limerick that is looking for a Small Animal Veterinary Surgeon to join their team. This role offers the perfect balance of support, development and autonomy, ideal for a vet looking to grow their skills while maintaining a good work-life balance.

The role:

  • 4-day working week, averaging 38 hours
  • 1 in 3 Saturdays (short shift, 4 hours only)
  • No OOH – full support from local night service for referrals and hospitalisation
  • Mix of supported and independent work:
  • 1 day working alongside an experienced vet for upskilling in ultrasound, x-ray, dental and procedures
  • 1 day with surgical support on hand
  • 2 days sole charge at a quieter branch practice

What’s on offer:

  • Structured learning opportunities with experienced colleagues
  • True work-life balance with no nights or on-call
  • Opportunity to develop diagnostic and surgical skills in a supportive setting
  • Independent practice ethos with modern facilities

About you:
This role would suit a confident vet who enjoys variety – comfortable with sole charge but also motivated to continue learning in a collaborative environment. A good communicator with a patient, team-focused approach will fit in well here.

If you’re looking for a role that blends independence with support, and a work schedule that allows a genuine balance, this could be an excellent next step.
