Job Details

Dechra has an exciting opportunity for a qualified vet to join us for approximately 12 months from January 2021.

The Practice
A business unit of Dechra Pharmaceuticals PLC, Dechra Veterinary Products has an impressive track record of growth and specialises in the sale, marketing and technical support of licensed branded pharmaceuticals for companion, equine and food producing animals. Our Mission is to be a vet’s partner of choice by adding value through quality products, service and dedicated support from a team of knowledgeable and approachable individuals.

Location
Home-based initially, but willingness to travel and visit customers (when possible) is also required. Candidate should be based in North of England.

The Role
Working closely with the Sales and Marketing teams, the role involves provision of excellent technical support to internal and external customers for our pioneering products in endocrinology, dermatology and anaesthesia/analgesia. With two recent major product launches, and another to follow shortly, it’s a great time to join Dechra!

Successful Candidate
The successful candidate will have a broad range of current experience in companion animal practice. Excellent communication, presentation and organisational skills, attention to detail and enthusiasm are also essential. The role is likely to be home-based initially, but willingness to travel and visit customers (when possible to do so) is also required. We’re focussed on finding novel ways to support vets during these challenging times, so someone who can demonstrate innovation and imagination will be a great fit. Previous experience of working in the veterinary pharmaceutical industry is not essential as full training and support will be provided.  

The Package
Competitive salary plus benefits.

Closing date for applications: 30th November 2020.

Company

We are an international specialist veterinary pharmaceuticals and related products business. Our expertise is in the development, manufacturing, sales and marketing of high quality products exclusively for veterinarians worldwide.

Dechra has a long history in the veterinary health market dating back to 1819, when the company was established as Arnolds & Son, originally manufacturing prosthetic limbs. The company first turned its attention to veterinary medicine during the Crimean War.

More recent changes, including a number of highly successful acquisitions, have helped shape the current business. However, our heritage has undoubtedly contributed to Dechra being the successful business that it is now.

Dechra is a company with a track record of growth. Our pharmaceutical sales revenue topped £189 m in 2013, with 89% of this coming from Europe. We continue to invest in new products with 8 novel products and 3 differentiated generics in our product pipeline.

Despite the fact that we have grown rapidly, we have stayed true to who we are. We have not forgotten our roots and we remain a small and responsive company at heart.

Our six Dechra Values: Dedication, Enjoyment, Courage, Honesty, Relationships and Ambition reflect the best aspects of behaviour and competence in Dechra. We embrace the Values at every level of the business.

An effective values system aims to provide the Dechra Group with many benefits, from committed and happy employees to the best possible relationships with suppliers and customers. The Values play a vital role in bringing consistency to all the businesses across the Group, enabling all employees to be aware of what is expected of them and how they can achieve that.
