Falkirk is in the Central Lowlands of Scotland half an hour Northeast of Glasgow and an hour Northwest of Edinburgh in the Forth Valley. It is the perfect location for weekend getaways or exploring the countryside on your days off. The practice itself is based in Falkirk centre with ample parking and great local transport links, including frequent buses and a train station only a 5-minute walk from the practice.

Due to the location of the practice, we see a good variety of cases and have a wonderful expanding client base resulting in us requiring an additional Vet to offer more of our services. We are looking for either a full or part time vet to expand the caseload further. For full time hours we work 4 days per week. This would include 1 in 4 weekends.

There is OOH included in this role with the practice providing an OOH service till 10pm Monday - Friday, of which you would be expected to do 1 evening per week.

The team is currently made up of 6 Vets, 8 RVN's and 6 front of surgery colleagues, many of which have been with the practice since its opening, showing the family feel team we have created in the practice. This isn't just in work either, we enjoy going for regular days or nights out to further enhance the great bond we have as a team. The team is led by our partner Samantha who studied at Edinburgh University and has over 12 years' experience with both small and large animals.

We are ideally looking for a vet who is experienced and confident in all aspects of the role due to our varied medical and surgical caseload, ideally being confident in both ops and consults. In practice we also encourage CPD and further learning for each team member to expand knowledge and work on specialisations within the team.
