We have an experienced team of vets with certificate holders in medicine, surgery and imaging.

We have regular in-house Vet GDP and clinical governance meetings.
The Role
A mixed practitioner looking to experience all aspects of our busy and thriving two centre independent mixed practice. West Lakeland Vets offers a wide variety of clinical case load, with support available at all times especially when on call. There are always two vets and a nurse on call and out-of-hours phones are answered and filtered by our own nurse team..
Successful Candidate
Our ideal candidate would be a team player with good communication skills and a caring nature. Experience would be an advantage but we are keen for new graduates to apply for this role too. Experience or an interest in mixed practice would be essential for this role, although we would encourage candidates with a passion and focus on an area of clinical interest

Our standard working week is 4.5 days with additional time off after a weekend on call. Our rota is a 1.5 in eight with one night on per week. We offer flexible working options including part-time working and additional holidays can be taken as unpaid leave.
We offer a salary package of between £35,000 - £60,000, with genuine long term prospects in this independent practice.
Location
We are based in West Cumbria, between the coast and the Lake District, an area offering endless outdoor activities with fells, lakes and beaches all in easy reach.
The Large animal work takes us from lowland beef, sheep and dairy farms along the coast, to the extensive upland farms of the western valleys.
