Job Details

Maternity cover with possibility of permanent position for the right candidate.  Starting November.

The Practice
Once upon a a time.. we were the the UK's first feline only practice. The Cat Clinic is a 3 vet independent, first opinion practice where we strive for clinical excellence and great customer service. We have a very knowledgeable, supportive nursing team, friendly receptionists and a great team spirit.

The Cat Clinic is now based in fairly affluent residential area of Edinburgh yet only a stones throw from the Edinburgh highlights - the castle, Arthur's Seat and many more. Our civilised rota allows time to experience it all!

Come and join our supportive, friendly, feline only practice where work/life balance matters and clinical freedom is still the norm.

Located in a residential area at the foot of Blackford Hill, only 10 minutes from Arthur's Seat and a similar distance from city centre.

The Role
Experienced veterinary surgeon required for 3 vet practice. Usual mix of consults and surgery time. Varying 3-4 day per week rota, one in three rota for  Saturday morning consults with responsibility to care for in-patients hospitalised over your weekend/ after your evening surgeries. Out of hours provided by Vets Now.

Successful Candidate
Although the majority of the time there are at least 2 vets present, there is some sole charge required so experience and confidence is a must. The successful candidate will have excellent clinical skills, be a team player with great compassion and communication skills too.
A love of cats ( grumpy or otherwise) is essential.

We are looking for someone with real empathy who is friendly/reassuring/approachable to both clients and cats alike.

The Package
Salary commensurate with experience,
CPD allowance, certification encouraged
