About the Role
Here at Letchworth Veterinary Centre, we are looking for a Veterinary Surgeon to join our team. The role will also ideally require you to work at our Deepdale Practice near Sandy. We have a fantastic, close-knit team who celebrate each other's successes and support one another. There is ample opportunity for growth and development whilst having the freedom to make your own mark; your voice will be valued, and your contributions recognised as we expand and provide exceptional care to our clients.
We care about your work/life balance
We offer working patterns that flex with you and your lifestyle. Whether you are looking for rota hours to balance the school holidays, time to maintain a hobby or other interest, or just looking to strike that balance between home and work life, we can offer flexibility that works for you.
Want to know more about us?
We are situated in green, leafy Letchworth Garden City, close to Norton Common if you enjoy getting outside for your lunch break. We have toys for our Vets to play with - digital X-rays, dental x-ray, ultrasound, tonovet, and lots of lovely Registered Veterinary Nurses to make sure we don't break them! Our three consult rooms, waiting room, in-house laboratory, prep room, dental room, kennels, and separate cat ward all have ceiling windows which open to provide lots of natural light and ventilation.
We need another Vet to make our team complete and help us to look after our wonderful clients. We have an ophthalmology certificate holder for those tricky eye cases. One of our vets has just started his exotics certificate while another is enjoying the challenge of a medicine certificate. At Deepdale, we have a surgeon to tackle complicated procedures, including orthopaedics, and another colleague who has all but completed her dermatology certificate. We can't wait to find out what skills you could add!
