Haven Veterinary Practice was established with its current name in 1991, but the Practice has been in continuous existence since the late 1940's. We are a proudly independent, client-focused practice set in Clacton-on-Sea, less than five minutes' walk from golden beaches. We have one consult only branch surgery based in Frinton on Sea, approximately 15 minutes from the main surgery. Clacton is an hour’s drive from London Stansted airport, 30 minutes from Harwich port, and benefits from good transport links to Colchester, Ipswich, and London.

Neil joined the practice in 1999 after graduating from Edinburgh, at that time Haven was a 4-vet mixed practice and much smaller than it is today, Neil knew from the moment he saw the practice that he wanted to stay, he became partner in 2002 and took over as sole owner when the remaining partners retired in 2016.

Now a small animal-only practice, and still proudly independent, we have grown (along with the building) and we are now an 11 vet, two branch practice with a strong sense of caring, family and teamwork thanks to the ethos that Neil has created.

We are looking for someone who will enjoy being part of our lovely team, we have a positive and happy culture and have a fantastic support team of 14 qualified RVNs, 3 SVNs and 8 receptionists.
