Job Details
Aran Vet Clinic has an exciting opportunity for a Vet Surgeon to join their team. We are a vibrant and friendly small animal practice in the market town of Llangefni, on the island of Anglesey. We provide a good standard of first opinion care with support from visiting specialists when needed. The role will involve a mix of consulting and operating with 2 operating days per week undertaking a good mix of routine neutering, mass removals, wound management, urgent surgeries (enterotomy, pyometra, splenectomy etc.) diagnostic work ups, dentistry and care of hospitalised in-patients. Our out of hours care is provided by Vets Now so this role does not include any night or weekend emergency work.
Rota patterns that work for you
This is a full-time role, but we are happy to talk to vets wanting fewer hours or a more flexible working pattern as we understand work life balance is key to a happy team. Our full-time rota consists of working up to 40 hours per week over 4 or 5 days with some evening work until 7pm. You will also be required to work your share of the Saturday rota, currently 1 in 4, working from 8:30am - 12pm.
Beautiful location
Aran Vet Clinic is a modern practice in Llangefni, in the middle of the beautiful Isle of Anglesey a well known holiday destination with glorious beaches and access to the mountains and scenery of Snowdonia. Our team are often found swimming in the sea and lakes, running over the mountains, or simply enjoying a dog walk on the beach. There are excellent road and rail links to the rest of the country and Holyhead port for ferries to Ireland is only 20 minutes away If city life is more your scene, we're only a few hours from Liverpool and Manchester.
About our practice
We have a well-equipped purpose built surgery with on-site parking. We are equipped with excellent facilities including digital x-ray, dental x-ray, ultrasound, Idexx lab equipment, separate dog and cat wards, etc. We are well established in the area and know our clients and patients individually; we take pride in being able to give them exceptional care - our online reviews are a testament to this!
Team and Culture
Our fantastic team is made up of 5 vets, 5 registered veterinary nurses, and 6 animal nursing assistants/receptionists, who all work a mix of hours to suit their lives away from the practice. We have a stable team with many having been with us for over ten years, our close-knit atmosphere is the best thing about our practice and we're looking for someone who will fit in well and enjoy working alongside us.
While more recent graduates are welcome to apply, some experience would be preferred for this role as it will involve being the only vet on site for evenings and Saturday mornings.
