A friendly and well-established small animal practice in West Sussex is currently seeking an enthusiastic and experienced veterinary surgeon to join their dedicated team.

The practice prides itself on delivering exceptional veterinary care with a compassionate and client-focused approach. Known for providing comprehensive workups, the team fosters an environment where vets can fully engage with each case. With a busy and varied caseload, alongside a highly supportive atmosphere, this is an ideal place for a vet who enjoys going the extra mile for their patients.

The successful candidate will become part of a fantastic group comprising 9 experienced vets, 9 qualified nurses, dedicated trainee nurses, and a welcoming front-of-house team. Many members of the team are currently working towards certificates, and the practice actively supports professional development, encouraging team members to pursue any areas of special interest that enhance the services provided.

The practice operates from a purpose-built, recently renovated facility equipped with state-of-the-art technology, including digital X-ray, ultrasonography, in-house laboratory facilities, and separate wards for dogs, cats, and isolation cases. With a loyal and engaged client base—approximately 30% of which are insured—the team has the resources to deliver the highest standards of care.

The team is seeking a veterinary surgeon with at least 3 years of experience, strong medical and surgical skills, and a commitment to continuous learning and development. Most importantly, the right individual will have a genuine care for their patients, a desire to provide outstanding service to clients, and the ability to work well within a close-knit team. The role will primarily involve consultations, with at least one dedicated surgical day each week.

The practice values flexibility and is happy to tailor working hours to suit the candidate’s lifestyle. While full-time (40 hours per week) is preferred, part-time applications are also welcome. Typical shifts are 8 am – 6 pm or 10 am – 8 pm, with only one late shift per week. Weekend work is limited to 1 in 4 weekends (Saturday 9 am – 6 pm and Sunday 10 am – 4 pm). There is no sole charge work and no out-of-hours responsibilities.

In Return, the Practice Offers:
• Generous CPD allowance with full support for pursuing certificates or additional qualifications
• Clinical freedom

• A loyal client base and supportive colleagues
• A great location close to Brighton and the South Downs National Park
