Blaise Veterinary Referral Hospital, Birmingham, West Midlands
Discipline: ECC
Full Time, Flexible
Competitive Package
We are looking for an experienced Diplomate (ACVECC/ECVECC) to lead our ECC referral service. ECC is at the core of the hospital and has adopted a similar model to the Vets Now hospitals in Manchester and Glasgow that are part of our referral division, meaning that in addition to direct ECC referrals your team will also manage the ICU and be supported 24/7 by our dedicated out-of-hours service, in partnership with Vets Now.
This will be an exciting and varied position, where you will balance clinical and leadership responsibilities. You will work alongside an experienced peer group, delivering commercially sustainable services across the hospital and collaborate with the wider referral division on the implementation of new processes and ways of working.
