BroadstairsSurgery Information / Job Description

Our team, based in the lovely coastal town of Broadstairs, is looking for a passionate and enthusiastic Veterinary Surgeon to join our professional but friendly and fun team! Our practice is located very close to the beach and we also benefit from great access to London via the train in just 45 minutes and only a 30 minute drive to the Euro Tunnel.

Our surgery is based inside a busy Pets at Home store and is purpose built with state of the art equipment including digital x-ray, arthroscope, ultrasound and endoscopy and broncoscope. We see a real variety of cases and carry out all of our own orthopaedic surgery.

Person Specification

We are a supportive and experienced team of 4 Vets, 3 RVNs, 2 Student Nurses and 5 Receptionists. Due to the experience within the existing team, we are only able to consider applications from experienced Vets.

A key part of the role will be to build strong relationships with patients and clients therefore you must enjoy this side of the role just as much as the clinical side. Our partner Michal is an Orthopedic Surgeon and holds certificates in radiography and ultrasound. We encourage regular CPD and offer a generous allowance, so if you are looking to develop a particular area of interest, we could be the perfect practice for you!

Benefits

This is a full time role with a weekend rota of 2 on and 2 off every 4 weeks with time off in lieu. There is no sole charge or OOH responsibility with this role ensuring a fantastic work/life balance and supportive team environment.

In return we offer:

  • Excellent career opportunities and development due to our varied case load
  • Competitive salary commensurate with experience
  • Enhanced annual leave of 28 days including bank holidays rising to 33 days including bank holidays after 2 full years’ service
  • Contributory pension scheme

Locally owned practices with a world of support

At Vets for Pets we’re a network of practices that are owned and managed by the practice owners that run them. Because they’re locally owned, each practice has the freedom to serve patients and clients the way it thinks is best. 

But crucially, being locally-owned also means enjoying a truly team-spirited atmosphere. We want all our colleagues to build lasting relationships with practice owners and team members as well as patients and clients.

And because we’re also part of a wider group, you’ll get all the support you need when you need it. That means state-of-the-art facilities, high quality CPD, financial stability and a real sense of job security.

With our framework, we’ve made it simpler and easier for you to help patients and clients live happier, healthier lives together. It’s about making the most of your expertise and bringing this to life in practise while being safe in the knowledge that you’re looked after too. Simply put, we offer locally owned practices with a world of support.

Flexibility & Wellbeing
You tell us which hours you want to work, and we’ll do everything we can to make it happen. With us, you could enjoy a better work-life balance where flexibility and wellbeing come first.

Training & Development
We offer great training programmes, plus fully funded CPD, leadership courses and access to our group’s learning curriculum. We’ll also support you if you’re interested in owning a practice. With our wealth of resources, it’s easy to build your skills and develop your career.

Local Practices
With us, no two practices are the same. We’re deeply rooted in our local communities and we want you to really get to know your patients and clients locally.

Being part of the Pets At Home Group
Being part of Vets for Pets means you’ll be part of our network of locally owned practices. Our practices are located across the country and are owned and run by our Joint Venture Partners (JVPs). Our Joint Venture Partnership model is unique and gives everyone the best of both worlds. Working within one of our practices you’ll get to work with the JVP who has the clinical freedom and autonomy to do things their own way.

As we’re part of a large respected organisation you’ll also enjoy the benefits of being part of a wider PLC Group. This means we can give you greater stability and job security during these uncertain times and beyond. 

What’s more, we’ve worked hard to make sure everyone in our group can take part in a fun, friendly, professional and inclusive culture that allows you to bring your whole self to work and be at your very best.
