The role we have on offer can be full (4.5 days) or part time (3 days) plus 1:5 weekends, negotiable for the right candidate.

Birch is a very busy first opinion practice catering for all small animal cases. We have a very experienced team including both a Surgical Certificate and an Internal Medicine Certificate holder, and continuing CPD is supported within the practice. We have an energetic team working atmosphere where everybody's contribution is appreciated, and support is readily given.

Among the Vet team, we frequently discuss cases and treatment options in support of each other.

We’re looking for someone with well-developed communication skills and who is capable in case management, and confident in their diagnostic and surgical abilities.
