St Georges Halesowen is looking for a full time or part time Vet Surgeon to join their team. You can be based solely in our Halesowen GP practice or combined with days working at our Wolverhampton hospital site.
We would be interested in speaking to Vets with an interest in Orthopaedic Surgery and we can offer training and development in this at our hospital as part of the rota (no prior experience required).
A typical working day in Halesowen would consist of 15-minute consultations with a qualified Registered Veterinary Nurse on hand at all times. There would also be up to 3 hrs of routine surgery a day – neutering, lump removals, dentals if desired. Your day would consist of morning consultations and then afternoon surgery from 2:30pm-6:30pm with an allocated break at 4:00pm. This can be flexible depending on skills and interest; for example, we can change surgery times and have more consultation time if desired.
We care about your work/life balance
We offer flexible working patterns that flex work to fit in with you and your lifestyle. Whether you are looking to flex your rota hours to balance the school holidays, fix to navigate the school runs, or just looking to strike that balance between home and work life, we can offer flexibility that actually works for you.
The typical working hours would be from 9am to 7pm across 4 days of the week, with a 1 in 3 Saturday’s from 9am to 4pm. There are no out of hours with this role.
