Our flexible approach to rota patterns and working hours offers a balance that truly flexes with you and your lifestyle no matter what stage you are in your career.

We are open to candidates looking for full time or part time opportunities. Full time hours would be working 40 hours per week over 4.5 days plus your share of the Saturdays. We would also be open to part time working 2 or 3 days a week. Saturday mornings are on rota, working 2:4 from 9-12:30 and we have no OOH.

Both clinics are equipped with iM3 dental machines, digital radiology and Idexx biochemistry and haematology equipment, as well as fully equipped operating theatres.
