Does this sound like you?
If so, this was written with you in mind.
We're a close-knit practice and with two of our vets on maternity leave, we're looking for someone experienced to come in and be a genuine part of the team. Hours and start date are genuinely flexible — we'd rather find the right person than hold rigidly to a timetable.
What the role looks like:
You choose full time or part time, and we'll build a schedule around you. You'll be joining a strong consulting team and a highly skilled nursing team who are — in the words of one of our RVNs — "very supportive and knowledgeable, and who encourage and promote the very best care for our patients.
" That's the standard we hold, and it's the standard we're looking for someone to come in and maintain — particularly across our surgical caseload.
Some days will be demanding — but you won't carry it alone. We've built a team that actually talks to each other, celebrates the wins, and processes the hard cases together.
For the right person, this role has the potential to become something more permanent.
What's in it for you:
We offer a competitive package and we're happy to talk through what's available for this role. But we'd also love to hear from you — if there's something that would make this the right move, tell us and we'll see what we can do.
Interested? We'd love a confidential, no-obligation conversation before you commit to anything. Get in touch and let's talk.
