A well-established RCVS-accredited practice in southeast Cornwall is seeking a full or part-time Veterinary Surgeon to join its friendly and experienced team. With a main clinic in Liskeard and 2 branch surgeries, this progressive practice has a history of over 120 years and transitioned to a small animal focus in 2017.
The Role:
* This position prioritises a strong work-life balance, with the practice closing at 18:00 and most vets finishing by 17:30. A duty vet takes over inpatient care, ensuring evenings are free.
* Admin time is built into the schedule, and a one-hour lunch break is guaranteed daily.
* The practice provides its own OOH cover, structured in 10-week blocks, where 8 weeks have no duties at all. On-call weeks do not require daytime shifts, and a dedicated Wednesday night vet ensures a full day off midweek.
* The weekend rota operates on a two-week cycle, alternating between a Saturday morning shift only and an on-call weekend with compensatory time off.
Why join this practice?
* Team: The team consists of nine experienced vets, aiming to expand to 10 or 11.
* Facilities: The practice is well-equipped with digital and dental x-ray, endoscopy, ultrasound, orthopaedic kits, and advanced anaesthetic monitors, supporting special interests in surgery, orthopaedics, and cardiology. Laparoscopy training is available, with experienced mentors guiding development.
* Location & Team Culture: Liskeard, a vibrant market town, offers easy access to Bodmin Moor’s countryside and the Cornish coastline. The team enjoys a relaxed, supportive work environment with regular social events, including beach outings, escape rooms, and practice gatherings.
* They are offering a competitive salary up to £60,000 p/a - reflective of skills and experience.
* £1,750 CPD allowance (certificates funded).
* RCVS, VDS & one additional membership covered.
* Health Shield cash plan & private healthcare discounts.
* Cycle to work scheme & company pension.
This is an exciting opportunity for a vet seeking career growth, a strong support network, and an excellent work-life balance in a forward-thinking practice.
