Veterinary Surgeon Job Description
Our beautiful standalone Stafford practice is looking for an experienced Veterinary Surgeon to join their clinical team paying up to £65,000 (FTE, DOE).
* You would join a very experienced vet team who can support your development, including one vet with a certificate in cardiology.
* This is ideally a full-time role of 38.5 hours per week; however, we know that finding that work-life balance is important, so if you are looking for a different rota, please do speak with us and we will try to accommodate.
* No OOH, Sunday, and no bank holidays! (except for Good Friday).
* This role would be a great fit for someone with a surgical bias but would equally suit a good all-rounder.
* CPD and Certificates are highly encouraged and can be funded.
