Our Senior Vets are leaders. They nurture and support emerging talent and help shape the careers of future generations. Coupled with a diverse range of cases, a Senior Vet will lead from the front in achieving high quality patient care, excellent client care and encourage a team work mentality.
Provide emergency care at a time when it’s needed most
We recognise a work-life balance is of the upmost importance and this opportunity provides great scope for clinical excellence, career development and substantial periods of rest. As an out of hours provider, the rota pattern will involve weekends, a mix of weekday nights and a fair share of bank holidays.
Together we save pets’ lives
Sutton is a growing, state of the art clinic with brand new equipment. On shift, you will be supported by a strong nursing team, Animal Care Assistants and Receptionists. The wider network of emergency clinics and specialty hospitals work in collaboration to ensure that we can offer the best Emergency and Critical Care in the country. Whether it’s sharing best practice or seeking advice on a particularly complex case, you will never be on your own at Vets Now.
Great place to work

- comprehensive CPD allowance
- 6.6 weeks annual leave

Celebrating success
As well as providing a competitive package of rewards and benefits, we also take pride in celebrating our successes. This includes hosting an annual awards ceremony for those who have exceeded expectations. Clinical staff are also encouraged to attend our annual ECC Congress, the largest in the UK, which features an array of internationally accredited speakers, delegates and exhibitors.
On-going personal development
Vets Now are committed to investing in the career progression of our people and we expect our Senior Vets to be ambitious in their own journey too. We will support all employees in pursuing a particular interest of choice and offer exceptional mentoring programmes.

Vets Now provides this trusted service to more than 1000 veterinary practices across the UK — from 55 dedicated out-of-hours clinics and three 24/7 pet emergency hospitals. In total, we treat around 100,000 small animals every year — and during seasonal holidays, like Christmas and Easter, our highly-skilled staff answer around five queries an hour from worried pet owners. So whether you’re in Aberdeen, Belfast or Portsmouth we’re there for you and your pet when you need us most.
We’ve also pioneered other ways to help pets, pet owners and the veterinary profession, such as our comprehensive referrals service and providing our staff with industry-leading training and development opportunities. We also support the pet blood transfusion charity, Pet Blood Bank UK. Meanwhile, our three hospitals — in Glasgow, Manchester and Swindon — are home to some of the UK’s leading specialists in the field of emergency and critical care and provide care 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
