About Us
We are an independent practice that opened in August 2019. In the last 5 years, we have expanded to 5 vets and still have a growing client base. We have 20 - 40 minute appointment times and generous admin time to allow space to work up and follow cases. We are lucky to have such appreciative clients and have only grown our customer base from word-of-mouth recommendations. We have tried to set the bar for quality of service but also staff well-being. As a small practice, all members of staff, reception, nurses, and vets, work closely together as a team. Work/life balance is important to us, so even full-time hours are only 4 days/week with no on-call.
We are in the Cornish seaside town of Penryn, located on the edge of Falmouth. We are fortunate enough to be in one of the most beautiful parts of the UK. We have almost endless countryside, beaches, and coastal walks on our doorstep and in the surrounding area. There is also vibrant nightlife in Falmouth and nearby Newquay, but it is the access to the outdoors that makes this place so special. All water sports are available, with excellent surf beaches and vibrant underwater life easily accessible. This used to be our holiday destination when I was younger, and that is exactly why I chose to work here and subsequently set up a practice and settle here with my family. I can't imagine anywhere better to be.
The Role
We are looking for a full or part-time compassionate and conscientious small animal vet to join our amazing team. This would mean 3-4 days/week, 1 in 4 Saturday mornings (08:30-12:30), and no on-call. We are not looking to be a practice with "cheap" prices, but we struggle to justify the prices of some neighboring practices and focus on keeping our prices fair and reasonable. We encourage open communication about estimates and treatment options in all cases and allow time for this in consultations. We are keen to provide the most enjoyable working environment possible and are always open to feedback from all team members. Essentially, we are looking to provide modern-day medicine whilst retaining old-fashioned values and are keen to expand the team with staff that appreciate this approach.
The Package
We ensure ample time for admin, phone calls, and lunch breaks. Remuneration is generous but will vary depending on experience. Full-time is only 4 days a week. We ensure that at least 1 out of 4 weeks, the day off is a Friday to make a long weekend. There are genuine partnership prospects here for any interested candidates. We have ample parking and generous (cost plus VAT) staff discounts.
