Job Details

The Practice
We are a proudly independent practice who have over 100 year history of treating the animals of West Yorkshire. We have a relaxed, friendly atmosphere and are a very sociable team. Our strength comes from our ability to communicate with our clients, having a large team of 25 vets with decades of experience, being involved with community we serve (country shows, young farmers, WI meetings etc) and working hard for each other.

We invest in facilities and equipment. We are building a new purpose-built hospital with a CT scanner and exotic ward, which will be ready in early 2019. We have laparoscopic/arthroscopic equipment, endoscopy, cryosurgery equipment, TPLO/MMP equipment at the hospital. All branches have their own digital x-ray, ultrasound and surgery facilities. We have a dedicated and highly successful rehab centre called The ARC.

Nurses are on site at our hospital site 24 hours a day and take all phone calls during the night.

We are a practice that is moving forward and growing, primarily due to our very good reputation.

Beautiful countryside with access to the Pennines and surrounding area. Options to live in/near Huddersfield or rurally.

The Role
Approximately 1 in 9 on call. 1 in 3 Saturday mornings. Working week is 4 and a half days with an extra half day if a weekend is worked.

25 days holiday with time back in lieu if working a bank holiday.

Successful Candidate
We are looking for a good communicator and someone who works well in a team. They must be motivated to provide a high level of service to our clients. 

With so many vets, the candidate does not have to be someone who is a finished article! We have vets with many different areas of expertise and there are multiple ways to develop interests in a supportive environment. Being a very good general practitioner is also very valuable.

The Package
Salary dependent on experience.
