Hours to suit you
We prioritise your wellbeing and want to support you in providing a rota that works for you. We are open to flexible rota patterns, including school hours or other working suggestions, allowing for that important family time, caring responsibilities or time to enjoy your hobbies. We're happy to consider a role between 20 - 40 hours, to enable us to support our clients and provide a work life balance that benefits you.

The weekend rota is just 1 in 3 Saturdays with no Sunday's and with a dedicated out of hours providers looking after our patients, you'll be free to enjoy more precious time outside of the job you love.

Facilities
Our standalone practice is purpose built with some great facilities including operating theatre, 3 dedicated consult rooms, a large prep area, x-ray room and isolation block with separate cat and dog kennels.

There's also on-site parking, easy access to public transport and some great amenities nearby too.

The Role
Our days are well organised so whether you're working full or part-time hours, longer days or shorter days, you'll enjoy a well-managed diary with time included for breaks, time to catch up on admin and time to discuss cases with colleagues. You'll be involved in both surgery and consults, with consults given 15 minutes as standard, with longer given when required.

We're therefore looking for innovative, personable vets with good GP experience to bring new clinical expertise, and to help us grow and develop even further as a team and practice.
