Job Details
An opportunity to join one of the few independent small animal practices left in the South East of England has arisen. This is an excellent opportunity to join a well-established family run practice in East Cambridgeshire and work alongside a team of very experienced veterinary surgeons and nurses. The practice has two sites a short distance apart, both highly equipped with modern facilities including ultrasound, ECG, digital x-ray, in-house lab and surgical tools for complicated soft tissue and orthopaedic procedures. The role will be based at one practice so travel between the two is not required.
Located a short distance from both Cambridge and Bury St Edmunds, the location is perfect for someone looking for a rurally based practice, with good transport links to bigger cities. You will be joining a team of 7 highly experienced vets and 10 equally experienced nurses and will be supported by a dedicated practice management and receptionist team.
The ideal person for this role will have 2+ years' experience in small animal practice and be comfortable with routine surgical procedures and occasional sole charge work. In return you will benefit from a good work life balance with a flexible rota and no out of hours. Weekend requirements are 1 in 2 Saturday mornings only (9am-12pm). You will also be offered a generous package with competitive salary, good holiday and CPD allowance (including certificate study for the right person) and professional membership fees paid for.
