Job Details

Due to continued growth, we are pleased to offer a new opportunity for a Veterinary Surgeon to come and join our passionate and friendly team at Hedge End Vets4Pets, located in the county of Hampshire.

Hedge End is only 6 miles away from central Southampton, and Hedge End itself is an area of family residential homes, a strong retail offering which attracts people from a wide area, and there is easy access to coastal and rural areas.

We would like to meet you if you are a Veterinary Surgeon who already has experience from first opinion practice, and feels comfortable consulting with clients and are confident in routine surgery. You should be capable of emergency surgery if needed but no OOH work is required. We are keen to meet you if you have any individual passions you wish to pursue such as orthopaedics or exotics but this is not essential.

Whilst you will get the chance to work autonomously, with some sole charge, and have the clinical freedom to treat your patients as you need, you can also benefit from working as part of an experienced and friendly team and alongside the practice owners who will be on hand to support and offer advice. We also benefit from working with other nearby practices in our group to offer a high quality of patient care.

We have full and part time positions available, which will include 1-in-2 weekends, with days off in lieu. We also have a 15-20-hour weekend role, there is potential for this to increase in the future.

You will be supported by the other members of our team, who include three experienced Nurses, one of whom also completes Practice Manager duties, and our reception team who our clients describe as friendly, professional, caring and kind.

In addition to your salary, pension contributions, paid annual leave and a host of other benefits, we are also able to agree a CPD budget to support your professional development as we are keen to develop the skills of all of our colleagues within our team.

Our practice, will celebrate its 4th year of opening this year, and has an expanding client base with an increasingly varied caseload. We see a number of more advanced medical cases which allows us to progress our work ups and diagnostics.

Whilst we have all the equipment that you should expect in a modern built practice such as including digital x-ray, ultrasound, and in-house laboratory facilities, the team and our supportive environment make this a special place to work.

We are an Equal Opportunities Employer.

Locally owned practices with a world of support

At Vets for Pets we’re a network of practices that are owned and managed by the practice owners that run them. Because they’re locally owned, each practice has the freedom to serve patients and clients the way it thinks is best. 

But crucially, being locally-owned also means enjoying a truly team-spirited atmosphere. We want all our colleagues to build lasting relationships with practice owners and team members as well as patients and clients.

And because we’re also part of a wider group, you’ll get all the support you need when you need it. That means state-of-the-art facilities, high quality CPD, financial stability and a real sense of job security.

With our framework, we’ve made it simpler and easier for you to help patients and clients live happier, healthier lives together. It’s about making the most of your expertise and bringing this to life in practise while being safe in the knowledge that you’re looked after too. Simply put, we offer locally owned practices with a world of support.

Flexibility & Wellbeing
You tell us which hours you want to work, and we’ll do everything we can to make it happen. With us, you could enjoy a better work-life balance where flexibility and wellbeing come first.

Training & Development
We offer great training programmes, plus fully funded CPD, leadership courses and access to our group’s learning curriculum. We’ll also support you if you’re interested in owning a practice. With our wealth of resources, it’s easy to build your skills and develop your career.

Local Practices
With us, no two practices are the same. We’re deeply rooted in our local communities and we want you to really get to know your patients and clients locally.

Being part of the Pets At Home Group
Being part of Vets for Pets means you’ll be part of our network of locally owned practices. Our practices are located across the country and are owned and run by our Joint Venture Partners (JVPs). Our Joint Venture Partnership model is unique and gives everyone the best of both worlds. Working within one of our practices you’ll get to work with the JVP who has the clinical freedom and autonomy to do things their own way.

As we’re part of a large respected organisation you’ll also enjoy the benefits of being part of a wider PLC Group. This means we can give you greater stability and job security during these uncertain times and beyond. 

What’s more, we’ve worked hard to make sure everyone in our group can take part in a fun, friendly, professional and inclusive culture that allows you to bring your whole self to work and be at your very best.
