Emillie's client near Birmingham is looking for a Veterinary Surgeon to join their practice, led by experienced veterinary Surgeons!

• Salary up to £65,000 (DOE)
• Shifts between 8am-7pm on weekdays & 9am-6pm Saturdays (not open Sundays)
• Saturday rota of 1 in 4 (Sole charge, consult only)
• Funding towards certificates and CPD
• Bring your pet to work
• Work with a Supportive and experienced team!

This independently owned, community-focused practice has been established for over eight years. It is led by two highly experienced vet surgeons—one a certificate holder and the other close to completing their qualification. The veterinary team is supported by a skilled group of veterinary nurses, led by a long-standing Head Nurse, along with dedicated veterinary care assistants, receptionists, and an experienced Practice Manager (RVN).

As a standalone small animal practice, it offers a varied and interesting caseload, with a high proportion of insured clients. The patient mix includes approximately 45% dogs, 40% cats, 10% rabbits, and 5% other small pets.
Committed to delivering high-quality clinical care, the practice is fully equipped with modern diagnostic and surgical tools, including dental x-ray, laparoscopy, endoscopy, Kyon TPLO equipment, harmonic scalpel, and K-laser. Most cases are handled in-house, although there is convenient access to a referral hospital nearby if required. The practice actively supports professional development and has a strong track record of funding CPD and certificate studies.

The practice operates from 8am to 7pm on weekdays and from 9am to 6pm on Saturdays, with no Sunday opening. The Saturday rota involves 1 in 4 weekends, covering consulting duties on a sole charge basis. Vets are typically allocated one fixed surgical day per week, though consult-only roles may also be considered.
Consultations are scheduled in 15-minute slots, with regular catch-up breaks to ensure manageable workloads. The team strongly values work-life balance—appointments finish by 6:45pm, with the clinic closing at 7pm. Additional protected time is allocated after closing for administrative tasks, and the daily schedule includes a 1-hour lunch break and designated time for phone calls.

The practice fosters a supportive and inclusive atmosphere where staff wellbeing is a priority. Sociable dogs are welcome at work and in the staff areas, and the site includes an enclosed car park for quick breaks, with a park nearby for lunchtime walks.

The team is seeking a veterinary surgeon with strong small animal general practice experience, a positive attitude, and a collaborative mindset. A good sense of humour and a commitment to professional growth are also highly valued.

Benefits Include:
• Salary up to £65,000 FTE, DOE
• Generous CPD allowance, including full funding for certificates
• Paid professional memberships (RCVS, VDS, BVA)
• Enhanced holiday allowance of 6.6 weeks from day one
• Paid day off for birthdays
• Enhanced employer pension contributions
• Private healthcare contribution
• Access to wellbeing and mental health support programmes
• Exclusive staff discounts and rewards

Located near scenic countryside with excellent transport links, the practice offers the perfect balance between city convenience and rural charm.
