Overview

Veterinary Surgeon - Modern, Forward-Thinking Clinic London Up to £80,000 DOE + Benefits

An ambitious and tech-enabled veterinary group is looking for a Veterinary Surgeon to join one of its purpose-built clinics in London. This is a rare opportunity to help shape a clinic's clinical direction, join a high-performing team, and deliver exceptional pet care in a modern, well-supported environment.

This is not your standard 9-5 role, it's an opportunity to drive meaningful change, support the development of junior colleagues, and grow both personally and professionally.

About the Clinics

• At least 3 consult rooms (including a dedicated feline room)

• Surgical suite with laparoscopy and endoscopy
• Imaging suite (X-ray, ultrasound, VVS kit; future CT and MRI planned)

The Role

You'll work alongside a talented team of vets, nurses, VCAs and client experience professionals, helping to drive clinical standards and support operational excellence.

Expect to:

• Lead by example in consults and surgery (especially soft tissue and dentistry)
• Play a key role in mentoring and supporting junior vets
• Help develop and implement clinical protocols
• Contribute to the continual improvement of systems and workflows
• Build lasting relationships with clients in a diverse London neighbourhood

• A self-starter who takes ownership and gets things done
• Comfortable with change and adaptable in fast-moving environments
• Interested in developing new ways of working, not stuck in "how things have always been done"
• Passionate about mentoring and team collaboration
• A strong communicator with a people-first approach to client care
• Ideally already developing a specialism or have clear CPD goals in mind
• Orthopaedic or internal medicine experience is welcome but not essential

Full-time: typically 5 days x 8 hours or 4 days x 10 hours (max 40 hours/week)

Weekends: approximately 1 in 3 (rota provided 2+ weeks in advance)
