Veterinary Surgeon

Job Description

The Role

We are currently looking for a Veterinary Surgeon to join our friendly team in Durrington, Wiltshire. This is a part time, fixed term role working 27 hours a week over 3.5 days with 1 in 3 Saturday mornings and the following Friday off in lieu. Salary range of £40,000- £46,000 depending on experience.

This is an excellent opportunity to join an amazing friendly team of 5 Veterinary Surgeons, 6 Veterinary Nurses and brilliant support Team. This role provides a great mix of management work, operating and consulting over a four-day week.

During operating sessions there will be a good selection of routine operations, dental procedures, diagnostics, and more complex operations but with the backup of local referral centres in our network. We are a busy practice and some days the workflow will be challenging while on other days’ time allows for managing the practice and private study.
