Veterinary Surgeon - Full Time - East Sussex

Our clients are looking for a full time Veterinary Surgeon, preferably with a few years’ experience to support their clinical director and junior vet. They have a varied workload and a loyal client base.

The ideal candidate must have experience in all aspects of routine first opinion practice, and any areas of interest will be supported and encouraged. Currently the vets work 4 days a week and 1 Saturday morning in 3, and there is no on-call or out-of-hours as they have a dedicated night clinic nearby. The role also has the potential for career progression to become the Clinical Director.

The surgery has digital x-ray, ultrasound and in-house laboratory equipment as well as a dedicated surgical room, separate kennels and cattery and upstairs staff room. The team consists of 11, comprised of 2 vets, 4 RVN's, 1 SVN and 4 support staff.

The ideal candidate will be an experienced veterinary surgeon who is comfortable with routine surgeries and dentistry. They welcome anyone undertaking or wishing to undertake certificate studies, particularly orthopaedic as they have a large range of equipment to support this. A good sense of humour and willingness to become part of a team is essential, as is the ability to engage with a client base that has a lot of interesting characters. The team need someone who is willing to muck in, be a team player but also keen to potentially take on a more leadership style role as the practice move forwards. A good, all-round vet who values each member of the team.
