Location
AAS Vets have 4 branches in Gloucestershire. Abbeydale, Quedgeley, Hucclecote and Stroud.

The Role
Looking for a 2+ year qualified, full-time vet who is a good team player, confident with sole charge, and competent at performing routine operations to join our friendly team. The ideal candidate would be someone who is confident in the veterinary field, happy with sole charge – as would be expected to work as the sole vet when rota’d in to work at branches, alongside nursing and support staff. They would also have their share at work at the main ‘hub’ of AAS Vets in Abbeydale.

The 4-day working week usually begins with consultations between 9am-10.30am weekdays. The main hub is Abbeydale veterinary centre, where you will have ‘routine’ ops and procedures (neutering, dental procedures, lump removals and stitch-ups), as well as working up cases with a range of facilities including digital x-ray, doppler ultrasound, video endoscopy, orthopaedic operations and more! Our Quedgeley branch undertakes the above routines, as well as having x-ray, ultrasound and a state-of-the-art dental x-ray suite. Stroud undertakes the routines plus ultrasounds. Hucclecote, due to its proximity to Abbeydale branch, undertakes routines, as well as having a small pet-shop area.

Evening consult periods (4-6:30pm) are again 10-minute consultation slots. We have NO OOH! We use an out-of-hours provider so your nights and public holidays are yours to enjoy!

Weekends are 1:4 rota, and Saturdays are run from our Abbeydale branch 9 – 2.30pm. Between 2.30-5:30pm, vets have the phones in case of emergencies and support of a veterinary nurse if required. At 5.30, phones are diverted to our OOH vets. Sundays consist of consults at at our Abbeydale branch 10-2. Phones are diverted to the OOH provider at 2pm.

Successful Candidate

The Package
Annual holiday is 25 days plus 8 bank holidays pro-rata, plus birthday off. We offer a generous CPD allowance, and other extras such as annual free eye tests etc. There is the option to be funded for certificate courses, which are approved on a case-by-case basis after a year of employment.
