Job Details
We are currently recruiting for an experienced Small Animal Vet to join us at our dedicated and forward-thinking RCVS accredited practices in Selsdon and Warlingham.
Your time will be split between our two sites which are around 3.5 miles apart.
The typical working week will be Monday to Friday, between the hours 08:30 and 19:00, including 1 half day and 1 early finish + 1:4 weekend (with the following Friday off!). We strongly believe in work/life balance and we know how important this is to our people. We support each other in flexible working, several of our team currently work flexibly and find that it's an excellent way to cope with the demands of personal life whilst still having an exciting and fulfilling career! We would consider applicants looking for part time, flexible working or reduced hours.
Our recently refurbished Selsdon practice comprises a brand new operating theatre, dedicated dental facilities, dental x-ray, digital x-ray (in both branches) and ultrasound along with two consulting rooms. The Warlingham branch is situated on a lovely village green and is very well appointed, allowing you to provide only the highest standard of care to your patients.
Our large and loyal client base are 70% insured and expect us to provide the highest standards of care to their pets and work with them to decide the best course of action in each individual case.
Our ideal candidate will be motivated, enthusiastic with an interest in surgery or a passion for diagnostic imaging, and of course a passion for client care with at least 4 years post graduate experience in practice. Career progression and development is just as important to us as it is to you, which is why we'd be happy to discuss funding your certificate and supporting you to achieve this.
We have a fantastic Clinical Director, two other Vets, HVN, RVN's and a brilliant support team including a Practice Manager. We are really proud of our team and the family feel that we have created. Within our team we have appointed an "unofficial" events coordinator to plan fun activities to allow us to spend time as a team outside of work. Some of these have included: game nights, takeaway and movie evenings, pub meals or even just going out for coffee. A sense of humour is essential as we are always laughing but of course working hard!
In return for your hard work, we will offer you:
- A salary of up to £50k dependant on your experience
- A lucrative and achievable profit-sharing bonus scheme
- 25 days holiday + bank holidays
- Buy/Sell holiday scheme - allowing you to purchase an additional two weeks of annual leave

Company
We operate 2 practices, one in Selsdon and the other in Warlingham. These practices work together in partnership to offer the best service possible. Both are staffed by dedicated and compassionate vets, caring, knowledgeable nurses and understanding receptionists.
Together we strive to provide the best possible care for our patients and value highly the close relationships we develop with our clients and their pets.
We appreciate the happiness a healthy pet brings to their owner and so we aim to provide the highest standard of pet health care and encourage prevention as well as treatment. We provide a full range of medical, surgical and other services, to enhance the well being of our patients, as well as helping our clients in giving their pets the best possible treatment.
Community work
We continue to work within the local community. We had done visits to schools, brownie and scout groups. These have been fun and informative; as a group we enjoy teaching people, especially youngsters how to care for animals and also what we actually do at the vets.
In June 2010 and 2011 we supported the Purley Scouts at their ‘Gruffy Fayer’ and held exciting dog shows. Our good friend and client Mrs Way was being the judge in this years dog show. Over the years we have helped raised money for charities such as the Guide Dogs, and Blue Cross.
We work closely with the Croydon Cats Protection League and help to encourage the re-homing of animals.
