Lloyd & Cowan are excited to be working with an independent and expanding veterinary group for a dynamic veterinary surgeon with at least two years of experience to join their team in Basingstoke. This group, established over 15 years ago, blends the security of a well-established organisation with the personal touch of family ownership.
About the Role
The new Basingstoke practice is a state-of-the-art facility located in the bustling Chineham Retail Park, adjacent to a busy pet retail store.

The position benefits from support across the group's 25 surgeons, 100 staff, and on-site nurses, fostering a collaborative and team-focused environment.
