Are you looking for a role that facilitates work-life balance but still allows you to develop your skills within an experienced team?

What can Fenwold offer you?

A salary of up to £65,000 depending on experience.
•    15-minute consultations
•    Excellent work life balance with a 4-day week with no weekends or out of hours. You’ll finish at 5pm everyday!
•    Relocation support of up to £5000, as well as a welcome bonus of £5000 (pro rata).
•    Full flexibility with hours, duties and where you’ll be based.
•    A varied caseload with access to an excellent range of modern equipment.

We have an 8.30am - 5pm rota with no weekend, bank holiday or OOH work, meaning you will get the opportunity to enjoy the wonderful countryside and seaside in our area. Whether you would be more at home in the Lincolnshire Wolds, enjoying an area of outstanding natural beauty, or sampling the delights of the Pleasure beach at Skegness, there’s plenty to do! Locally the housing is affordable and the schools are wonderful, making this an excellent place to settle.

Our flexible approach to rota patterns and working hours truly tips the scale on your work life balance. We know that everyone has demands and priorities outside of their career and we want to make it brilliantly easy for you to strike the right balance. Whether you are looking to fix or flex your work patterns, we can find the right solution for you.

A usual day at Fenwold vets would see you consulting or operating between 9am - 1pm, the Vet team swap over at 11 am so you have the chance to operate every day. You will then have some time to catch up on notes and have a well-earned lunch break before afternoon consulting starts again at 2:30pm until 5pm.

About Us

We are a 3 site group with practices in Skegness, Spilsby and Mablethorpe. You can choose which site you’d like to be based at as well. All the Clinical Directors are certificate holders so there is good support in both medicine and surgery, with one being an Advanced Practitioner in Veterinary Dermatology taking referrals. We recognise that further development is valuable and rewarding and are supportive of colleagues who wish to do the same. Our experience also allows you to have clinical guidance alongside any further studies. We routinely carry out orthopaedic work in the clinic (including TPLOs and fracture repairs) and so would be an ideal workplace for someone wishing to build their practical skills in this area following further study.

We really value a GP vet, supporting you with your development whether that is with training, certificates or appropriate resourcing with equipment. We see a varied and exciting caseload, and actively encourage case continuity. As well as the usual Digital Radiography, fully equipped operating theatres and ultrasound at all 3 branches, we also have endoscopes, full plating and pinning equipment for orthopaedics and an in house lab at Spilsby and Skegness.

Each of the sites has its own character, representative of the different communities they serve, there really is something for everyone at Fenwold! We have a friendly, dedicated and welcoming team who are keen to all support each other. We are proud of this and have a strong "all for one / one for all" mantra. Being part of a larger group means we can potentially offer placement on our fantastic new graduate academy, relocation packages, a welcome bonus or even refresher courses.

Applicant Requirements

Experience isn't as important as attitude to us. We are looking for someone with a strong team ethic, excellent communication skills, the ability to adapt and 'think on your feet with a desire to join a friendly and supportive Practice in a genuinely lovely part of the world.

We are big on preventative healthcare, high standards of care, great customer service and client continuity.

Here's what the team have to say about life at Shipley:
“Shipley Vets and the team have been nothing but great to work for and with. As a locum vet I was welcomed in by not only the staff but also the clients, quickly becoming a part of the family (even had a leaving party after my first maternity cover!). You will find friendly advice and support from not only management but also the experienced receptionists, nurses and vets. A great environment to be your own vet and make your own mark but also be part of a bigger team and bounce ideas off. Look forward to my locum stints when required.” Ryan Lotter – Veterinary Surgeon

“I started at Shipley Vets not long after qualifying as an RVN. I was welcomed into the team and over the years (nearly 20!) I have progressed in my career. I am very proud of the high standards of care we offer and how we all work together to ensure we are doing the very best for our patients. The practice has also adapted to ensure that work/life balance is achieved and this has been so important to me, having a young family. I am looking forward to many more happy years with great colleagues.” Lisa Powell – Practice Manager

The Role

This is the perfect position for either an experienced vet wanting to move into a senior role, or a vet wanting to take that first leap into leadership. The role will involve a good proportion of clinical time to work-up and develop your own caseload alongside managerial responsibilities and leadership of the team.

We are ideally looking for a someone wanting to work full time, but this could be flexible for the right candidate. Full time is 40h/week with either a 4 or 5-day week. There are no OOH responsibilities, but there might be very occasional inpatient duties for stable patients that we deem safe to keep in overnight. A neighbouring hospital covers our OOH and weekend inpatients. There will be a requirement to contribute to the Saturday morning consult only rota, which at present is 1 in 4 weekends.

Salary

The salary for this role is up to £70,000 depending on experience.

About Us

Do you want to work for a practice that puts colleague wellbeing and happiness as a priority? Miramar have worked hard to create fair and manageable shift patterns, giving clinicians plenty of time for case work-ups, admin, telephone calls, as well as a very important rest! This alongside accommodating for each individual's personal and professional needs and requirements in order to create a good work-life balance for all and treating everyone as individuals. We see a really interesting mix of cases, with a really good proportion of our clients insured, making investigations or referral more feasible options.

Our premises are fresh and new, with large consulting rooms, large waiting areas with separate cat, dog and nurse appointment areas, and a big emphasis on fear free and cat friendly principles throughout the team. We are always updating and refreshing equipment and are always keen to hear of any new pieces of kit people want to champion within the practice. All of our team are invested in providing the very best level of care to each patient that walks in the door, and because of this we have a very loyal and friendly client base.

The practice is a very short walk away from the sea front, on the beautiful North Norfolk coast, and there is nothing better on a hot summer’s day than a stroll down to the sea in your lunch break, and ice creams all round for the team! We regularly hold 'family lunches' where we get food in for everyone from one of the local eateries, as well as 'Costa runs' to keep everyone caffeinated on those busier days.

About the Team and Culture

Support to all team members is a really important ethos we all maintain, and the new Clinical Director will have the direct support of the previous Clinical Director who is only leaving to move into an Area Director capacity. The practice will have a designated Area Director and Area Support Manager who look after a small number of practices and will be able to offer 1-to-1 support and guidance.

The practice has certificate holders (dentistry and surgery), as well as RVNs undergoing extra qualifications in their chosen areas of interest. You will be supported by a team of 4 other vets, as well as 5 RVNs, 1 SVN, 1 ANA and a host of wonderful support staff.

Applicant Requirements

We are looking for someone who is keen to join Team Miramar, and just like us, will continue bringing excellent care to pets in north Norfolk. A desire to continue maintaining excellent team wellbeing is a must, along with maintaining top clinical standards and continuing the development of the practice. A real team player who will happily support each colleague while continuing to make Miramar Vets a valued part of the local community. Managerial experience is not necessarily required as support will be given from an Area Director and Area Support Manager who know the practice and the location well. A sound knowledge and experience in first opinion small animal practice will be required in order to fulfil the CD responsibilities, but mostly the desire to lead a happy and hard-working team!

About us

Holmefield is a friendly and long established 100% Small Animal practice with an experienced and long-standing team. Our Clinical Director Louise has been at Holmefield for almost 30 years and saw practice here during her studies! Our head nurse Alex used to bring her pets here when she was a child and has been with the practice since 2004. We are also lucky enough to have an experienced and talented reception team, including Julie who has just celebrated her 20th anniversary of working at Holmefield.

Holmefield Vets has its main site in the beautiful village of Brayton with a smaller branch practice in the picturesque Sherburn-in-Elmet. We are situated in a beautiful semi-rural location in North Yorkshire, whilst still being well connected to city life. There are regular direct trains from Selby to London, Manchester and Leeds and there is also a train station in Sherburn-in-Elmet. We are just a 20-minute drive from York, and Leeds and Hull are within striking distance too. Brayton is a lovely village with 2 pubs, a fantastic butcher, a village hall that offers scouts and cubs and cricket and rugby clubs. Brayton is next door to the lovely town of Selby with fantastic restaurants, including a new tapas restaurant, and the beautiful Selby Abbey, steeped in history. Sherburn in Elmet is a popular village with a super selection of pubs, restaurants and shops including a lovely little deli.

We have separate species wards and are proud to be a cat friendly clinic. We also have a separate bereavement room to ensure a pet’s final visit is as peaceful as possible. The practice was refurbished recently and is beautifully light and airy with a huge staff room and separate vet office for case research and phone calls. At the branch practice we undertake consults and routine surgery, and staff enjoy working at this smaller practice from time to time and building close relationships with the clients. Patient safety is a priority, and all brachycephalic breeds or higher risk patients undergo anaesthetics and surgeries at the main hospital to ensure sufficient staffing levels during the post-operative period.

There is no doubt that our biggest strength is our incredible team. You will be joining an experienced, talented and friendly team who pride themselves on having a positive and inclusive culture. Communication is prioritised here, with regular team meetings and full practice meetings to ensure everyone feels included, empowered, and heard. We have a vet working towards her certificate in diagnostics imaging, a nurse with a feline diploma and another nurse working towards a behaviour qualification.

Values-led GP Practice Near Edinburgh Seeking People-oriented Vet.

Are you looking for a change due to being overbooked, unsupported and on the pathway to burnout?
Do you enjoy the varied challenge of being a great GP vet but also have an area of interest you’re now ready to focus on more?

Are you a vet who actually enjoys working with clients? - if only you had enough time to spend with them and their pets!

Are you looking for a flexible rota that fits in with your lifestyle giving you enough time outside of work to keep you energised, passionate and excited about your work?

Have you been able to form a healthy relationship with failure where you can view moments when things don’t work out as planned as growth opportunities?

If so, read on to learn about a job and practice that might work well for you.

About Us

We’re an eight year old Vets4Pets practice located in Dunfermline who, from the outset, worked to build a practice that is an important part of our community. Though we are part of a larger group, the reality is that every JVP runs their practice completely independently of any other. We get support on the rare occasions we ask for it from the support office - but we are under no obligation to offer any service we don't believe works for us. The way we have chosen to do things attracts clients that support our vision of sustainability and high quality care and service. If you're doubtful, come and spend a day with us to find out for yourself how we do things - we’d be delighted to have you visit.

I (the practice owner) took the plunge into ownership because I experienced some fairly horrendous treatment as a new graduate, you probably know the sort of stuff I mean:

1.    10 minutes per appointment.
2.    No allocated break time.
3.    No time to actually use my brain and do work ups.
4.    Multiple operations were booked every day leaving no time for lunch.
5.    No space for emergencies in the diary so they were squeezed into non-existent time.
6.    Poor client bonding as zero time for any pleasantries.
7.    Cliques within the team (that left me feeling isolated).
8.    Abusive clients left unchecked.

Although this was a tough period of my vet life, it also built my resolve to do something different. Something that works for everyone, not just the pets and clients.

I’m not going to lie, it has been a journey with highs and lows, but after eight years of trying, learning and experimenting, we’ve found a formula that works for us, and I wonder if it might work for you too?

Some of the things we do are really obvious and simple, things like:

1.    We have established some clear and helpful guidelines for how to handle busy days.
2.    Roughly one third of our appointments are “book-on-the -day” or reserved for emergencies.
3.    We address unreasonable client behaviour.
4.    We schedule operations based on time to complete, not on volume - which helps to balance the workload out from day to day.
5.    We NEVER book a big bonus “dental” at the end of a crammed op list!
6.    We schedule lunch, breaks and admin time so you get to rest, write notes and complete work on time.
7.    We listen to feedback and suggestions from the team and implement what works

We have also thought long and hard about how values impact our daily experience at work. (We think they matter a great deal.) As such we’ve worked out what the values that matter most to us are. These are:

Honesty, trustworthiness, being friendly, resilient, standing up for what we believe in, being empathetic, caring and having fun. More on these when we speak!

To summarise, we’re an established practice that takes our responsibilities to our teammates as seriously as we take those to the pets under our care. If you join us, you’ll be joining a team that wants to do good work together, see each other grow both as a vet, but also as a person!

What Do Our People Say About Us?

Sometimes it can be hard to believe what’s written in job adverts, so we asked our team for feedback. Here’s what Rebecca, one of our vets, replied.

“I have worked at Vets4Pets Dunfermline for almost 5 years, since I graduated in 2017. I have always felt supported here and encouraged to follow my interests. One example of this is being encouraged to pursue my post-graduate certificate in small animal surgery and use these skills to perform more complicated surgeries in practice. Additionally, I have always disliked dentals and avoided doing them but recently I have started building up my caseload with lots of support from the senior vet (Dr Forbes Shaw), I have been given access to Brett Beckmann’s dental videos and I am going on a practical canine CPD course this year. I am given more time to perform my dental procedures and we have regular meetings to discuss my progress.
The diary is very well managed and the team are excellent at triaging phone calls. More challenging medical consults, PTS appointments and new clients are always booked for half an hour slots. I allocate my own time to do my admin list and check off medications eg flea/worm Tx. We limit the amount of clients seen per day to ensure we have time to work up cases. If there is an emergency then there is an additional emergency charge and appointments will be moved to accommodate this.
Lunch is protected, if ops run late then it’ll get moved to later in the day. Unless it is an extremely busy day but this is a rare occurrence. In the last 12 months I’ve had to stay late about 5 times. This is because we now shut at 6pm and VetsNow don’t open until 7pm so if a patient needs to be sent there we stay back until 7pm.
If there is an issue with client behaviour we are encouraged to bring it up with the client and will be supported with this. If there is unacceptable behaviour then the client is sacked. If there is a complaint made then I am always supported by Forbes and Lauren and they will help write a suitable response back.
I enjoy working here mainly because of the strong team we have, the nurses are very experienced and help with so much and the non-clinical team are very knowledgeable and know how to deal with clients well. We also divide the caseload well so if Forbes has a case which needs an operation he knows I will want to do it is transferred over to me.”

The Position

OK, let’s talk about the job then! You’ll be joining a small team in Dunfermline, itself a bustling town in Fife, you’ll also be a short train ride from Edinburgh!

As a vet on our team your responsibilities will include the following things:

1.    Consultations.
2.    Wellness visits and care.
3.    Dental care.
4.    Neutering.
5.    Soft tissue surgery - enucleations, limb amputations, enterotomy, gastronomy.
6.    FAST ultrasound scans. (We can teach you this if you’re not capable yet).
7.    Radiographing investigations.
8.    Medical work ups and treatments.
9.    Client communications/care. (How our practice grows.)
10.    Team communications/care. (How our culture thrives.)
11.    Invoicing accurately for your work.
12.    Writing accurate and timely clinical records.

We are very much proactive and preventative in our approach to patient care which is supported with excellent equipment like:

•    iM3 digital dental radiography
•    MyLab Omega vet ultrasound
•    In house Idexx lasercyte, microscopy
•    Blood pressure monitor, pulse ox, capnography.

We are always looking to add more services as we grow and are now expanding the practice to include a completely separate dental and ultrasound/endoscopy room.

The practice opening hours are 8.30 -6pm weekdays and 9-5pm saturdays. We are closed on Sundays. While we’d ideally want someone for a full time role, we’d also consider something more flexible with a minimum of 20 hours per week. You’ll work one Saturday every four weeks. But there is no on call or after-hours associated with this role.

Ultimately, if you like it here and are a great fit for the culture and team and have an interest in ownership in a profitable business, then there will be the opportunity to join the partnership and become an owner.

About You

You’ll be a vet with a little bit of experience in the role and have gotten through the first couple of years of fear post graduation!

You’ll be someone who understands that people are just as important as pets in this job and either enjoy or have built some solid communication skills that now help you to work effectively with both clients and team.

You’re someone that is considerate of the needs of those around you (not to the exclusion of your needs, but in balance). You’ve acquired enough experience to be confident in much of what is presented each day and even when you have no idea what’s going on with a case, you are experienced enough to fall back on first principles in order to establish a way forward.

You’re probably tired, or even feeling a little burned out, due to the stress caused by not having enough time to work up cases or get lunch each day (or even pee)! This way isn’t sustainable for you and you’re looking for a place where you have the time and space to do the work you were passionate about all those years ago when you set out to be a vet.

You like to work up cases thoroughly when you can, but you are also able to work compassionately to offer a spectrum of care for the occasions when clients can’t commit to gold care. ie - you are able to roll with the vagaries that accompany working with the public.

You’re someone for whom relationships matter a great deal and you invest time and energy in people that matter to you. The anti-client vibe on Facebook puts you off, because though sometimes clients can be challenging, you don’t at heart believe clients are the enemy.

Being a vet is a big part of your life, but it’s not the only part, and you enjoy other activities that nourish you outside of vetlife. Maybe you’re into sports, or you’re one of these incredible creators that seem to pepper the vet community! In short, if you could find a role that allowed it, you’d have balance in your life.

Though you are professional, you also like to keep things light and have fun when possible. You understand the magical stress busting benefit of laughter.

Finally, you are someone who loves to grow - learning is something you thrive on and you’d do well in a place where you had a mentor who was equally thrilled about seeing others develop new skills!

Location
Dunfermline, Scotland.

Position available now.

Experience & Education

You’ll have a veterinary degree registrable in the UK and hold membership of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons. You are legally allowed to work in the UK.

A minimum 3 years experience in practice with at least one of those in exclusively small animal practice is preferred.

Reward & Remuneration

In return for your skills, medical care and contribution to our culture we are offering the following package:

•    Salary is negotiable ranging from £45,000 to £60,000 pro rata dependent on clinical experience and demonstrable skillset:
•    Negotiable/flexible hours – longer days and more days off or shorter days and early finishes or later starts - let’s talk.
•    CPD budget is currently £1500 although a certificate is something we would always consider.
•    RCVS/VDS Fees
•    Company pension
•    There are 20 days of holiday per annum, plus bank holidays.

For the right person and if you are interested in taking on a leadership role in the future, there is also a genuine partnership opportunity. However, if this is not on your bucket list, then don’t be put off - it’s not a requirement.

Next Steps

In order to submit your application, please send your CV, a cover letter explaining why you’d be a good fit for our team and role to forbes.shaw@vets4pets.com or if you would prefer to have an initial informal chat just call us on 01383 738 796 and we'll be more than happy to talk things through.

Night vets are supported by at least two of the nursing team all night. There is sleeping accommodation on site.

There are seven consulting rooms. We are proud of our team, and we aim to support them with generous renumeration and support. Postgraduate studies are encouraged and supported.

jim.dixon@ivcevidensia.com (IVC Evidensia) — Tue, 24 Jan 2023 11:19:57 GMT

The Role

We are looking for a Small Animal Vet to join our experienced friendly team in the beautiful market town of Hay-on-Wye.

You will be working in a modern purpose-built premises with all the normal toys including digital dental x-ray and new doppler ultrasound machine. We encourage all our clinicians to do a bit of everything but there is support for specific interests. All of our certificate holders gained their qualifications whilst working in the practice.

Work life balance that works for you

Our flexible approach to rota patterns and working hours truly tips the scale on your work life balance. We know that everyone has demands and priorities outside of their career and we want to make it brilliantly easy for you to strike the right balance. Whether you are looking to fix or flex your work patterns, we can find the right solution for you. Ideally you will be working 40 hours per week over 5 days, but we can potentially be flexible with this with the standard day being 8:30-5:30. Currently there is a requirement for 1 weeknight a week plus one weekend in 4 but we are looking to reduce this in the future.

About Us

Sitting on the bank above the iconic River Wye and straddling the English / Welsh border, Hay is a great place to live and work. Overlooked by the Black Mountains and a short drive from the Brecon Beacons there is also everything for the outdoor enthusiast. The town itself boasts a myriad of independent food shops including bakers, butchers, breweries, distillers, greengrocers, and a deli. It is also justly famous for its bookshops.

Hay may be small, but it packs a mighty cultural punch. The world-famous annual book festival in May attracts writers, politicians, musicians and more, and is repeated in miniature at the winter festival each November. Throughout the rest of the year thousands of visitors are drawn to the town to enjoy independent galleries and exhibitions, while locals enjoy various choirs, theatre, creative writing, history, and photography groups. If you have an interest, it’s likely that someone else in the town does too and there’s a group for you.

We are lucky enough to have a very comfortable (and licensed) independent cinema showing everything from blockbusters to art house to National Theatre Live productions. The recently restored mediaeval castle hosts regular art classes and exhibitions.

Mountain bikers, walkers, runners, and paragliders are frequently seen in the hills above the town. In the summer the Wye is alive with canoeists, paddle boarders and wild swimmers.

Cycle hires and repairs (and a coffee) can be had next door to the practice. There is a thriving and welcoming running club within the town that hosts a hopefully soon to be official park run once a week. Llangorse is twenty minutes away and has a sailing club on the lake and an indoor climbing centre.

When tired out by all Hay has to offer, the town is well served with places to eat, drink and unwind.

There are plenty of pubs and restaurants to choose from, with takeaways, pop up pizza vans, gastropubs, tapas, and modern British tasting menus.

Hay is a family friendly town with lots of baby and toddler groups, a new library and a good choice of local primary and secondary schools (including the award-winning Hereford Sixth Form just a bus ride away).

We have minimum 15-minute appointments with the last scheduled for 5:15 during the week and 12pm on Saturdays to give us plenty of time to enjoy our surroundings. We aim to provide a comprehensive, personal service to our clients and patients. We also have links with a local animal rescue charity that we do a lot of work for.

About the Team and Culture

We are A family run practice with a great team, many of whom have been with us since the practice was founded (including those who have been away and come back again). Our friendly team consists of 4 small animal, 1 mixed, 1 TB tester and 2 large animal Veterinary Surgeons. Alongside this we have 5 RVNs, 1 SVN and an additional RVN is currently completing their period of supervised practice after a period away from work.

We have three certificate holders in the clinical team (veterinary and nursing) who are able to provide help and support whatever your level of experience. We pride ourselves on our collaborative clinical approach with regular informal case discussions. The opinions of all our team members matter.

A departing vet (heading back home to New Zealand) left us this message: “To the greatest, most hardworking, good looking, amazing team ever, love yas! Kia Kaha, Arohahui”

Applicant Requirements

Our ideal candidate will already have some level of experience and it is essential that you are already qualified and licensed to practice in the UK.
You will have a willingness to contribute to our OOH rota and an interest in surgery is desirable.

holly@watkins-tasker-vets.co.uk (WTVetsLtd) — Fri, 13 Jan 2023 09:34:27 GMT

If you love working with, and talking to, people as well as pets, we want to speak with you!

Here’s a bit about us, the role and our aspirations for you…

About Us:

We are a proudly independent, award-winning three site Small Animal Practice, fully owned by Steve T and Holly C. We describe the Practice team as dedicated, hard-working and fun-loving, who always pull together to provide animals the best care. We have a passionate vision to maintain a culture where individuals can flourish and excel, and lead the way within the profession.

Our team has grown over the last 8 years, and we now have over 50 employees who work across our Practices in Portishead, Nailsea and Yatton, all 20-30 minutes South of Bristol. However, we still have the team at the heart, and the personal feel from being an independent Practice.

We have a wealth of knowledge and a diversity of skills amongst our team of 14 Vets. Mario (Group Medical Director), Cristina and Katy are all Advanced Practitioners, and we have 6 other vets who have either completed or are on their way to completing certificates including medicine, imaging, surgery and exotics. We even have a TV vet among us, James, who works on “The Pets Factor” (CBBC), Morning Live (BBC) and The Pet Show (ITV). We are extremely proud of our awesome team of nurses, clinical support, administration and reception staff too.

“One major selling point about working here (that I'm loving!!) is that the Management Team care about making sure we don't overwork ourselves. From my experience, things like being able to leave on time, and getting time back in lieu when that's not possible, are pretty unheard of elsewhere!” Vet Louise.

We say yes to some slightly different things from hosting wet-labs, testing products for manufacturers or just leading the way with some initiatives. For example, we work closely with The Guide Dogs as we are one of only two sites outside the Guide Dog Centre who are approved to take hip and elbow x-rays for their breeding stock. We are a Real Living Wage Employer, meaning our pay scales across the whole team start well above the National Minimum Wage, and we are very proud of this affiliation. Amongst other things being independent also mean flexibility with rota and encouragement for development within a supportive environment.

Our culture is one of gold standards in all we do, unleashing the potential of our whole team and forward-thinking development of the Practice. We do not do the dreaded yearly appraisal, instead we have 1:1 catch ups every other month and an open-door policy, so we always know how you are. We have whole Practice meetings three times a year, where we shut all the sites and get together over lunch. We also have vets’ meetings every couple of months, where we discuss clinical cases, ideas and protocols.

Each Practice has superb facilities with ultrasound, digital x-rays, dental x-ray, surgical theatres and multiple consulting rooms at each site. All three sites operate as a stand-alone Practice. However, Portishead where we run our overnight services, also benefits from laparoscopy, video endoscopy and bronchoscopy, and our new extension at Portishead houses our shiny new 32 slice CT scanner 'Donut'. During the extension of Portishead during 2022, a third larger theatre was specifically designed for laparoscopic procedures. We have also been able to create a new exotics consulting room and ward, additional dog consult rooms, feline friendly spaces and more office space. Portishead is also home to our rehabilitation service, hydro.vet, with our in-house Physiotherapist and Hydro-therapists offering a wide range of services including the use of our underwater treadmill and therapeutic laser.

We are currently working towards our Investors in the Environment Bronze Award and have implemented various sustainable initiatives as a result. We have the aim of being THE Vets of choice for clients, pets and staff in North Somerset. Is it clear yet that we have big ambitions about what we do, where we are going and who is going to get us there!? Do you want to join us for the journey too?

We know it isn’t all about working with cute pets… Well maybe it is a little but don’t take our word for it check out - https://youtu.be/i2vC_Hznm1g

About the Role:

This is role has become available as one of our team off to pursue an exciting once in a lifetime opportunity in America. We are looking for a full-time Vet, with at least three-years of experience to be able to join the team to undertake a mix of consulting and surgery. The role requires an all-round confident GP but if you have a special interest which needs developing or already have a Certificate then we would be particularly interested in hearing from you.

Ideally, we need someone for 39 hours per week but whether this is over 5 days or 4 days can be discussed depending on your preference (flexibility!). With you on board there is a fair share of OOH shifts* to be done and 1:12 Saturday mornings. (*If you really want to know what fair share is, with you on board it would mean 1:9 weekends with Monday as a paid day off and 7 weeknights in a 16-week cycle – yes less than 1 night every other week!). We are committed to doing our own out of hours, as this improves case continuity and removes transfer hassle, and of course hugely benefits the patient and their owners. We firmly believe it’s also an opportunity for personal and professional development too.

This role is likely to be predominately based at our Nailsea Practice but all our vets are contracted to potentially work at any of our sites. Many of the vets regularly work from two sites which means you get to see different clients and most importantly spend time with a greater number of your fabulous colleagues. The vet diaries offers flexibility and we are very happy for more complex cases such as orthopaedic/laparoscopic surgeries or animals needing CT to be brought over to Portishead so you can continue the work up or undertake the procedure yourself. We also encourage internal referrals amongst colleagues and hope that you might have the ability to take on cases in this way too.

Generally, over the course of a day you will see a mix of consults ranging from the routine healthcare to emergencies. You will have time to do procedures, dentals, medical case work ups, follow ups and have a break for your lunch. Our clients are great. They come to us knowing they will receive excellent pet care, a welcoming smile, transparent pricing, and a professional service throughout.

“I've had a really good experience with starting to work here. It's especially great seeing how close knit the team are and watching everyone work together so well. I have been made to feel really welcome and been involved right from my first day.” RVN Talia

About You:

Well, we know you are committed after reading this far (well done) so if are you a Vet who:

Thrives on solving problems for pets and is biased to leap into action when needed
Loves a busy and varied case load perhaps with an area of interest which is crying out to be utilised to full potential or nurtured and developed

Prospers in a conscientious yet flexible and friendly working environment
Wants proactive, supported career progression to develop those skills even more!

Four vet, two branch mixed (90% small animal) practice.
Salary up to £75,000 commensurate with experience
Relocation allowance of up to £5,000
Welcome bonus of up to £5,000
Looking for experienced mixed or small animal practice clinician.

Abbey vet clinics is a well-established practice with branches in the market town of Forfar and the historic seaside town of Arbroath, both within easy reach of mountains, beaches and the bright lights of Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen, and Dundee.

We are looking for a senior vet or Clinical Director to join two existing CDs. The role will involve management duties and developing the practice alongside clinical duties and would suit an experienced clinician who is ready to take on more responsibilities and help to develop the skills and knowledge of more recent graduates.

We have varied surgical and medical caseloads and you will have clinical freedom to follow your own cases with daily opportunities for operating.
We undertake a large amount of work for our local Cats Protection branch and have now started a dedicated cat clinic.

Our large animal work is mostly suckler cattle with a small amount of dairy, sheep and equine.

We share a one in four night and weekend on-call rota with nurse cover provided.

The practice has 3 RVNs who now run their own clinics, doing nail clips, post-op discharges and examinations, blood pressure monitoring and blood sampling.
Both clinics are equipped with iM3 dental machines, digital radiology and Idexx biochemistry and haematology equipment, as well as fully equipped operating theatres.

Applicant requirements

Ideally, we would like the candidate to have some management or Clinical Director experience, but the role may suit an experienced Veterinary Surgeon looking to step up and learn the skills needed for a Clinical Director. You must be confident in clinical matters encountered in a mixed practice or a small animal general practice and can lead and support the team, both clinical and non-clinical, and still have the enthusiasm and energy to help the practice and staff progress and flourish. This is a 90 percent SA 10 percent LA practice, and ideally the successful applicant would share in the mixed workload although for the right person we would consider an applicant dedicated to SA only duties. Must be RCVS registered. Full UK drivers licence essential.

admin@kmanvets.com (Colin Manson BVMS, Cert SAS, MRCVS) — Mon, 09 Jan 2023 01:18:50 GMT

Our goal:

We are looking for a proficient, confident, and friendly all round clinician with the desire to make Cayman their home and ideally commit to a 2 year contract. What we offer in return is a fabulous opportunity to enjoy life in the Caribbean whilst practicing good quality medicine with few clinical restrictions and provide bespoke patient care.

Geography & Clinic:

Based in the Cayman Islands, Kman Vets is a 100% SA clinic of 3 vets. With an excellent reputation for high standards of care and the only clinic on island offering advanced surgical procedures from an RCVS Cert SAS holder. With the support of 6 RVN’s and 2 ACA, we have a small, purpose built, technically advanced clinic. We also provide a mobile service for everyday health needs.

The position:

If you are a confident all rounder, aspiring to the knowledge and standards of an advanced practitioner, with perhaps a bias to small animal medicine, this could be the position for you. We would welcome 5 years of experience in providing advanced care and an ability to perform standard elective surgical procedures. As island life requires self sufficiency, we do provide an equally-shared after hours service to support our clients at night and over the weekend, however our clients are polite and respectful with infrequent calls and any attendance required, offers additional generous remuneration. We encourage the freedom to realise your veterinary potential whilst engaging and creating positive client relationships. A collaborative clinical approach is welcome by all employees, drawing on experience, education and passion for the betterment of our four legged friends.

A happy work/life balance enabling you to truly embrace the relaxed Cayman lifestyle, can easily be achieved. Our clients are lovely and their pets are very much a part of their family. Cost restrictions over care are rarely a concern and with 30 minute appointments you can work up cases appropriately and satisfactorily. Cayman is a safe and friendly environment, both warm in weather and in welcome.

Package deal:

An attractive remuneration package is offered (USD$90,000.00) along with a practice car, RCVS fees (or similar) and a generous relocation allowance. Cayman is income tax-free, with only minimal deductions for private health care and pension contribution. This does mean though that the cost of living is not dissimilar to London , UK. A 40 hour week would be predominately based at the clinic, with some mobile duties on rotation. Mobile is not what you would expect, typically involving a weekday excursion, with nurse assistance providing a more relaxed and bespoke level of service, whilst seeing the island and glimpsing Cayman’s often luxurious lifestyles. CPD includes VIN membership and access to professional webinars on demand. Cayman Immigration requirements include a work permit application along with local vet board licensing. Professional qualifications for an MRCVS status or equivalent is required for this step. Support and guidance will be provided throughout this processes and will require some efforts by you to organize the necessary documentation needed.

Research:

If you would like further information regarding the position offered, please get in touch by email to Dr Colin Manson at admin@kmanvets.com with a covering letter and CV. Interviews will be by Zoom and likely at the weekend or late in the day, due to time-zone constraints. We recommend visiting www.caymanresident.com to assist you with your research about island life. www.ecaytrade.com will assist you regarding accommodation expectations. We welcome all candidates however those with families should research healthcare and education needs thoroughly. Clinicians with few commitments and flexibility may find this a more rewarding and attainable role.

An April or May start date would be anticipated. The work permit application process typically takes an average of 3 months to receive.

We know that everyone has demands and priorities outside of their career and we want to make it brilliantly easy for you to strike the right balance. Whether you are looking for full-time, part-time or flexible hours, we can find the right solution for you.
The salary for this role is up to £65,000 FTE depending on experience, along with a welcome bonus of up to £2,500

About Us

Hillman vets are a 6 branch practice based in the West Midlands. We are well equipped with digital x-ray machines, Ultrasound machines which we use for abdominal scanning and echocardiograms. We also own a laser therapy machine and laparoscopic equipment.

About the Team and Culture

Staff Testimonial

“When I started at Hillmans 3 years ago as a new grad, I was really afraid that I would be judged as I didn't have much experience, but most of what I know today I owe to my Hillman’s family. Working at Hillmans allowed me to develop into a better veterinary surgeon and pursue my dreams with a Certificate in the veterinary field that I am interested in.”

“A family vibe is always present and after-work chats and drinks are must-do for us.
There is always someone at the end of the phone or in our what’s app group and this is what makes me feel safe. In no time you can develop further and start to make your own clinical decisions and judgements. Monthly vet meetings are helpful to discuss cases and hear other colleagues’ opinions. All of that would be impossible without our amazing nursing team (and reception team) whom you can rely on at any time.”

The Role

We have an excellent opportunity for a Clinical Director looking to join our well-established team here at Copeland Vets, Stockton on Tees. At Copeland vets we offer a varied caseload allowing our vets access to surgical cases every day, we also strongly believe in case continuity, ensuring you can see things through for your patients from start to finish. You will be responsible for leading our small and dedicated team. Day-to-day duties include overseeing the general running of the Practice. Management duties will involve working in tandem with the Practice Director, Practice Manager, Area Director, and Area Support Manager along with a substantial amount of clinical work time operating and consulting. Mentoring and coaching less experienced Veterinary Surgeons is an important part of the role and something you must be willing to embrace. Due to the support available, it would be a great opportunity for someone looking to take the next step in their veterinary management career.

It is important to us that you are happy at work but equally important to us to provide you with a work-life balance, so we work a 4-day week between the hours of 8:30 am and 7 pm, with 1:4 Saturday mornings working from 8 am – 12 pm. There are no OOH requirements.

The salary for this role is up to £80,000 depending on experience. We can also offer a welcome bonus of up to £5,000 with additional relocation support of up to £3,000.

About Us

At Copeland Vets, we are a single site well-equipped family-friendly practice with staff who love learning and teaching. Our award-winning facilities are fully equipped with digital x-ray, orthopaedic kit, dental suite, doppler ultrasound, endoscope, PRP and Stem Cell Therapy equipment.
Sharing all our knowledge is something we love to do, your opinion and input matter to us. We say our practice is like a patchwork quilt, everyone has a piece to bring to create the full picture, from the cleaner to receptionists to the Management Team to you, everyone has importance and value in different shapes and sizes. We live and breathe our unique team approach, and we thrive with that ethos.

We are conveniently located near the beautiful North York Moors, Captain cooks monument, Roseberry topping and the Cleveland hills, a beautiful coastline with the best beaches and fish & chips. We are situated in the middle of Ingleby Barwick which is Europe’s largest private housing estate. There are lots of local restaurants to eat out at, and there’s the Globe Theatre a grade 2 Art Deco Playhouse which plays host to comedians, musical theatre, and bands. We also have access to great train links direct to Edinburgh, Newcastle, York, Leeds & London.

About the Team and Culture

We're currently a 2-vet team one of which is in the final stages of securing a certificate in medicine, we also have 6 qualified registered veterinary nurses and additional support staff. We're a happy bunch and are actively encouraged to pursue our own areas of interest. CPD is encouraged and will always be funded for those wishing to expand their knowledge and skills.

Applicant Requirements

We are looking for someone who will continue making the practice a pleasant working environment as this is just as important to us as clinical skills. Ideally, we would like the candidate to have some management or Clinical Director experience, but the role may suit an experienced Veterinary Surgeon looking to step up and learn the skills needed for a Clinical Director. You must be confident in clinical matters encountered in a small animal general practice and can lead and support the team, both clinical and non-clinical, and still have the enthusiasm and energy to help the practice and staff progress and flourish. A desire to be involved in the development and growth of the practice is vital. We have available enrolment on the IVC Evidensia Leadership Development Programme if this would be advantageous.

Vet Surgeon – Eastgate Vet Group – Suffolk

Here at Eastgate Veterinary Group on the border of Norfolk and stunning Suffolk, we are looking for a motivated Veterinary Surgeon to join our talented team across our RCVS accredited branches.

At Bury St Edmunds, we have a team of 4 Vets and 5-6 Nurses, with our practice at Thetford consisting of 3 Vets and 4 Nurses, and our practice at Mildenhall, also with 3 Vets and 4 Nurses. All the practices also have very proactive and friendly support teams.

All our branches have plenty for you to explore in your downtime, including: the beauty of meandering around Thetford Priory; the theatres on show at Bury St. Edmunds; and the museums and river walks on offer at Mildenhall. Being close to the coast, there is also plenty opportunity to take a stroll by the sea – or, for the city lovers among you, Cambridge and Norwich are nearby for fun days (or nights!) out. As well as being in a beautiful location, you’re also less than a 2-hour drive from London, and less than an hour to Norwich and Cambridge, giving you a whole bunch of places to explore.

Sounds great! Tell me more about the job.

We're open to an experienced Vet, but we would also be happy to support a less-experienced candidate who wants to build up their confidence in surgery, as this will be key to the role. We’re looking for someone who wants to be part of a team that are always striving to provide the best care for our patients and to share our knowledge with each other. We are a very friendly team who believe work should be fun as well as rewarding.

Our full-time Vets work a 4-day week, covering 36 hours. However, we are amenable to part-time and flexible working, for the right candidate. We are also more than happy to consider consult-only, if preferred.

Our weekend rota equates to working one weekend every 5 or 6 weeks, with these alternating between first duty and back-up duty. A first-duty weekend involves working Saturday at our Bury St Edmunds branch (for which you get a day off in lieu the following week), then an emergency clinic 10-12 on a Sunday. A second-duty weekend covers the Mildenhall Saturday morning clinic (9-12) and is then back up if the first-duty vet needs an extra pair of hands. There is no on call during the week, but you would have a night of inpatient duty every 2 weeks (in patient care is provided by our nurses, but we have a vet on duty in case they have any concerns – very rare).

We don’t have any permanent accommodation available, though the use of a flat at our Bury St. Edmunds branch during on-calls is possible, if it’s not being used by one of our lovely locums.

Nice! What about you?

At Eastgate, our strongest asset is our team, and we encourage input and feedback from all members in order to improve and evolve the service we offer. Your opinion is important to us, and we encourage everyone to get involved and have a say on the way we practice.

Cool! What are the benefits?

Salary in range £34,000-£65,000 DOE, and you will be well reimbursed with extra pay for out-of-hours work and second-on-call weekend duties
Generous £1750 CPD allowance
RCVS VDS fees paid
6.6 weeks paid holiday (including Bank Holidays)
Health Shield - wide ranging contributions for health and wellbeing treatments, from dentistry to sports massage
Enhanced paternity, maternity, adoption, shared parental leave, and surrogacy pay
Discounted veterinary fees
Cycle to Work scheme
Company sick pay
Annual pay reviews
Focus on employee wellbeing

We hope to get to know you soon!

Farm Animal Vet

sue.adams@towcestervets.co.uk (Sue Adams) — Tue, 31 Jan 2023 10:18:53 GMT

Towcester Veterinary Centre is a mixed practice located over 4 sites within and around the historic town of Towcester, Northamptonshire. We are RCVS accredited, independent, and our vets have served local farmers for over a century! We started as a single vet practice and have grown to the team of 26 we have today, 8 of whom form the dedicated farm team. Each of our vets understands that the treatment and advice we give to clients will directly affect their livelihood - we aim for gold-standard care and strive to deliver a personal service tailored to the individual needs of each farm.

We have a substantial and growing client base located in Northamptonshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Bedfordshire, Warwickshire and beyond - predominantly beef and sheep, as well as dairy farms, camelids and smallholders. Every day brings new opportunities to challenge your skills and provide benefit to help support the demands of modern farming through both preventative and emergency care.

We are looking for a vet with experience or a strong interest in ruminant/farm animals to join the Practice. We are happy to consider experienced vets or new graduates. We have a supportive environment where your professional development is actively encouraged, and colleagues are keen to share their knowledge and discuss best practice advice so that the whole team can continually improve. Our facilities include an in-house lab, hospitalisation and surgical facilities, ultrasound scanners and mobile radiography. Although we employ a dedicated TB tester the role will involve some testing shared among the rest of the team.

The successful candidate must be able to work individually and within our existing team, embodying the friendly and straightforward approach our clients have come to expect. Good communication skills will be key, as you will be constantly liaising with clients and colleagues – not only other vets but also our support teams based in clinic. We hope to find someone proactive with a positive attitude, enthusiastic and resilient - we work in a challenging but ultimately rewarding industry, and we look forward to welcoming you to our part of it!

We offer a competitive salary and benefits including BUPA, RCVS fees paid and staff discount. A vehicle is not supplied but business mileage is paid. The position is full time and will involve regular out-of-hours duties.

To be considered for this vacancy please submit your CV plus a covering letter outlining why you are interested in joining our Practice, and your preferred start date to Sue Adams, HR Manager sue.adams@towcestervets.co.uk

You will need to provide proof of RCVS membership and your right to work in the UK.

Mixed Animal Vet

coomara@coomara.co.uk (Charlotte Denston) — Fri, 03 Feb 2023 14:28:32 GMT

COOMARA VETERINARY PRACTICE is looking for an additional mixed practice vet to join our team.

We are independent (and staying that way), family run, and positioned perfectly on the outskirts of the Lake District National Park.

We are looking for someone with genuine enthusiasm for traditional mixed practice, but also keen to help us develop our growing small animal caseload. It’s an exciting time for Coomara, as we plan our brand new premises, and continue investment in team members and services to fulfill our Practice Vision of providing the best in general practitioner care from our patients’ first steps to their last.

Here is what our team has to say about working at Coomara:

“I never realised how much I could enjoy being at work until I joined the Coomara “family” team”___S.L. Veterinary Surgeon

“Coomara is a lovely family-run practice who promote high standards of nursing care. The practice has a range of equipment which allows me to nurse my patients to the very best of my capabilities”___ A.M. Senior RVN

“Working at Coomara is the best move I ever made. You’re not just a number, you are part of a family. There is always help and support from the team, and we have a really good client base, and animals are treated with care and love, just like we care for our own pets”___A.M Receptionist

“I enjoy working in a close knit team where everyone looks after each other”___ L.S. RVN

“I’ve been at Coomara since graduating in August 2021, and it’s been a great place to start my veterinary career. The team are so welcoming and friendly, and there is always support when you need it. Everyone is happy to help each other work through cases. We’re encouraged to follow our interests and I’ve been sent on some great CPD. Even with on-call shifts, there’s a good work-life balance: it’s very rare that you stay late in the evening, and most days you get a full hour for lunch too. There’s also the added bonus of a day off after time on-call!”____H.G. Veterinary Surgeon

We serve Carlisle and surrounding villages. Our caseload stands at 70% small animal and 30% farm (mostly dairy, some beef and sheep) with the very occasional equine. We currently employ 6 vets - 2 part time (small animal and equine..when it happens.. and Saturday morning consulting) and 4 full time mixed vets on rota.

We offer a flexible CPD budget and encourage staff to develop their personal areas of interest.

We will consider new and recent graduates for the role - come armed with energy, lots of common sense, a practical outlook, and we will provide the rest! A new graduate training scheme will be offered and fully funded (The Vet Graduate Academy).

Our full time vets work a 4 day week, and a 3 day week after a weekend on call. We would consider part time hours, but would like the successful applicant to participate in our equally shared out of hours rota.

Salary offered ranges from £30,000 to £45,000 depending on experience. Accommodation is available.

Take a look at our website to get a feel for who we are www.coomara.co.uk and give us a call for more information

gavin.gallagher@ivcevidensia.com (IVC Evidensia) — Mon, 06 Feb 2023 15:07:03 GMT

The Role

We have an excellent opportunity for a Clinical Director looking to join our well-established team here at Wirral vets. We offer a varied caseload allowing our vets access to surgical cases every day, we also strongly believe in case continuity, ensuring you can see things through for your patients from start to finish. You will be responsible for leading our dedicated team over three sites. Day-to-day duties include overseeing the general running of the Group. Management duties will involve working in tandem with the Practice Manager, Area Director, and Area Support Manager along with a substantial amount of clinical work time operating and consulting. Mentoring and coaching less experienced Veterinary Surgeons is an important part of the role and something you must be willing to embrace. Due to the support available, it would be a great opportunity for someone looking to take the next step in their veterinary management career.

We are happy to offer flexibility in this role, but our standard shifts are 40 hours across 4 days per week. Hours are generally 8:30 am – 6:30 pm with 15-minute appointments. There are no out-of-hours, and Saturdays are worked on a rota system.

The salary for this role is up to £72,000 depending on experience. We can also offer a welcome bonus of up to £5,000 with additional relocation support of up to £3,000.

About Us

Our main premises at Upton was purpose-built in 2017 and provides a well-designed, spacious and functional working environment with 4 air-conditioned consult rooms. We have a large air-conditioned operating suite, X-ray and hydrotherapy suites, separate cat and dog wards, a huge prep room and a separate pharmacy. We have a comprehensive range of equipment including our in-house lab (Idexx Lasercyte Catalyst & Sedivue; Imagyst AI cytology reader) DR digital X-ray, dental X-ray, Doppler ultrasound, multiparameter anaesthetic monitors plus an extensive range of soft tissue and orthopaedic equipment and separate cat and dog kennelling. Upstairs we have a large staff room complete with a sofa and Nespresso machine, CD and PM offices, store, laboratory, isolation, and laundry rooms.
Our 2nd site is fully equipped with CR xray, dental xray, full idexx lab, modern anaesthetic units, multiparameter anaesthetic monitoring etc and the 3rd site is set up for more routine procedures with the ability to send more complex cases to the other sites.

Our staff include highly experienced and enthusiastic registered veterinary nurses, student veterinary nurses, animal nursing assistants, dedicated receptionists and our hardworking, dedicated Practice Manager who handles rotas, H & S, and payroll among other things!

All 3 sites are close to the M53 providing quick and easy access. The Wirral Peninsula is bounded by the River Mersey, River Dee, and the Irish Sea, and has beautiful beaches, plenty of 'green spaces', and some fabulous places to live potentially with the sea right on your doorstep. Kitesurfing, walking, sailing, kayaking etc are popular in the Wirral for those who like the outdoors. With Wales only 25 minutes away there are endless opportunities for those with any outdoor interests. Liverpool is only a 10-minute train or drive away for some culture, shopping, or just a 'night out'.

Applicant Requirements

We recognise that our people are fundamental to the success of our business. Investing in our people, premises and processes is at the heart of what we do. We would welcome applicants who are committed to continuing the positive culture of this team as this is just as important to us as clinical skills. Ideally, we would like the candidate to have some management or Clinical Director experience, but the role may suit an experienced Veterinary Surgeon looking to step up and learn new skills. You must be confident in clinical matters encountered in a small animal general practice and can lead and support the team, both clinical and non-clinical, and still have the enthusiasm and energy to help the practice and staff progress and flourish. A desire to be involved in the development and growth of the practice is vital. We have available enrolment on the IVC Evidensia Leadership Development Programme if this would be advantageous.
