Requirements

Candidates must be veterinary surgeons eligible to work in the UK with strong surgical skills, specifically the ability to perform bitch spays solo. A collaborative mindset and enthusiasm for veterinary medicine are essential.

Job Description

If you’re a Small Animal Veterinary Surgeon, where better to work than the independent practice who won Best Vet UK in their opening year and has kept winning awards ever since?


We are Weeley Veterinary Centre in Essex, CO16 9JT.




What We Can Offer You:


Sponsorship (if required)


Free Accommodation (if required) in a lovely two bedroom flat at the seaside within the same building as our Australian vet, Sarah


A salary of £45,000-70,000 depending on your experience and skill set


Health Shield


6.6 weeks annual leave plus we are happy to grant additional unpaid leave


Memberships paid (RCVS and VDS cover)


No out of hours


£1,000k CPD budget with flexibility for CPD that’s brilliant but more costly (for example, we previously paid for in-house training and now Nadine is a fantastic ultrasonographer)


The loveliest supportive team you could wish for and a boss who is fully clinical and leads by example. You won’t be working whilst she drinks tea; she’ll be working right alongside you and supporting you in every way she can. Besides she hates tea.


The very best clients who appreciate what we do. Our awards are due to their reviews so are a testament to how much they love us. We accept new clients via a waiting list which means they arrive excited and grateful to have been accepted to our area’s most exclusive practice. It makes being a vet easy as they already trust us to do our best for both them and their pets.




What We Are Looking For:


A veterinary surgeon eligible to work in the UK, with a great enthusiasm for all things veterinary.


The ability to work as part of a team is essential.


Confident with consultations and good surgical skills. The minimum surgical competency is to perform bitch spays solo.


Either three or four days per week with a fixed week day off plus 1:4 Saturday mornings.






Our Location:


We are in Essex, South East of England, with excellent transport links. Stansted Airport is one hour away by car and Central London takes 1.5 hours by train.


Our practice is within a village called Weeley and the accommodation is a 10 minute drive away in seaside town Clacton-On-Sea. From the flat you can see the sea and to reach the beach you literally cross the road. Sarah chose to buy a car soon after arriving, however you can also get around by train or bus with stations/stops near both the accommodation and the practice.
