Job Description: An excellent opportunity available within the South Downs National Park! Our client is currently looking for an additional vet to join their RCVS accredited hospital and supporting branches to further improve the balance of their current team.
This 14 Vet, small animal practice is located within the South Downs National Park, close to the South Coast, and only an hour from London. They have three branch practices located in Hampshire, with their main hospital based in the lovely market town of Petersfield.
The practice offers laparoscopy, endoscopy, ultrasound, and dental x-ray, with scope for more of a consulting role if surgery isn't your thing.
Our client is, ideally, looking for a full-time colleague for a 40-hour week over 4 days. However, they are open to discussing different working patterns and hours for the right candidate. Weekend roles and part time positions a possibility. There will be no overnight duties as the hospital has their own dedicated night team on site. There is an equally shared rota for weekend days, for which time off is given in lieu the following week.
The ideal candidate will be a Vet who enjoys the variety of general practice – from a morning of boosters and chatting to clients, to dealing with a wide variety of medical and surgical cases, and generally getting stuck in. Being able to work as part of a large and friendly team is essential. In return, there is plenty of support and case discussion.
Included in the package on offer:
Salary in the range of £45,000 to £60,000 DOE pro rata
7.5 weeks holiday (including Bank Holidays)
Opportunity to buy and sell holiday
£2,000 CPD allowance
RCVS & two other memberships paid
VDS cover
Discounted veterinary fees
Career progression available and encouraged
Health Shield Cover
Annual pay reviews
Enhanced sick, maternity, and paternity pay.
