We’re looking for a vet who enjoys working cases up properly, values continuity of care, and wants the freedom to tailor treatment plans to individual patients.
Why join us?
🐾 Brand new purpose-built practice
🐾 No OOH
🐾 1 in 4 Saturdays
🐾 7 weeks holiday (including bank holidays)
🐾 £40,000–£60,000 depending on experience
🐾 Certificates supported and CPD encouraged
🐾 Dedicated surgical/procedure time
And the kit?
🦷 Dental radiography
🔩 Orthopaedic equipment

💜 Cardiac ultrasound capability
Our team already has interests in orthopaedics, advanced dentistry, feline medicine, chronic pain management and diagnostic imaging. Whether you’d like to expand those services or develop a particular passion of your own, we’d love to hear about it.
Most importantly, you’ll be joining a genuinely supportive independent team where vets have a real say in how things are done.
And then there are the scotch eggs…
🥚 Thanks to a serious management-level scotch egg obsession, the garden centre kitchen keeps us supplied with fresh homemade scotch eggs. Proper ones. The sort that make you question every other scotch egg you’ve ever eaten.
