This role is part time working 20 hours per week however we’re in the unique position of offering hours that are framed to suit you and your needs. We’re therefore happy to discuss a rota that works for your lifestyle. There are no OOH and cases and inpatients are transferred to provider between 7pm – 8am.

We’re looking for someone who will be enthusiastic and self-motivated. You will have great communication, general surgical and medical skills. Whether you are an experienced vet or a new graduate, our team are happy to mentor and support you.

We’re a very close team of 4 vets, 5 nurses, ANA, 3 reception, Head receptionist and Practice Manager. Everyone loves coming into work and we make sure we have team days out. We care about our team and their wellbeing so we like to encourage breaks outdoors during the day and have mental health first aiders in the team. Our practice is ISFM Silver award credited and we have won National Partner of the year and been runner up National Surgery of the Year. We have also been nominated Surgery of the Year with petplan for the last 8 years since opening along with almost all team members individually. 

We are a very busy surgery with varied caseload and lovely client base, many of whom we get to know as friends. The surgery itself has multiparameter with ECG, digital xray, ultrasound, digital urinalysis, latest idexx blood machines. Orthopedic referral surgeons operate from the surgery.

Our surgery is located up on a mezzanine level inside the Pets at Home store in Kingsteignton Retail Park. Our great location means we are on the edge of Dartmoor national park and a stone’s throw from famous beaches and the bustling city of Exeter and Plymouth. We also have great transport links being close to Exeter airport and the M5.

If you’re interested we’d love you to come and meet the team and invite you to take part in a trial day
