Job Details

The role:

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Veterinary Surgeon to join our team at Aston Clinton in Buckinghamshire! 

Aston Clinton has an exotics caseload of up to 50%. We welcome candidates with an interest in exotics but are still confident with basic routine surgery for our small animal cases. 

Aston Clinton is a VN training centre with a friendly team made up of 5 vets, 7 nurses, and 5 receptionists. We work a 4-day week with only one working weekend in five, and two long weekends off in five. No on-call. 

Full-time salary package up to £55,000 per annum depending on experience to include:

  • - 5 weeks' annual leave plus bank holidays
  • - 4 weeks' paid sabbatical (after every 5 years of service)
  • - Enhanced Maternity and Paternity Pay
  • - £1,500 CPD Allowance plus 3 days CPD leave (FTE)
  • - RCVS, BVA, and VDS fees paid
  • - Vehicle allowance or Company Vehicle
  • - Accommodation allowance
  • - Access to Wellbeing support and EAP programme
  • - Access to a wide range of discounts for days out, high street, and holidays.
  • - 100% attendance bonus schemes
  • - 1-day' Pet'ernity Leave

This role works for our 4-day week with 1:4 weekends. 

We also offer relocation allowances should you move more than 50 miles from your current home address.

We can also support Certificates of Sponsorship for a Tier 2 (General) Visa if you meet the criteria and are eligible to register as a veterinary surgeon with the RCVS upon arrival in the UK.

Skills and experience:

The ideal candidate will have an excellent work ethic and a friendly understanding attitude towards clients, as client interaction and communication is key.

The ability to work without the need for supervision is important as the sole charge is required at the weekends, although plenty of support is available during the week from our experienced team to help develop skills and knowledge.

Special interests are welcome and encouraged! 

Branch:

We welcomed Aston Clinton to the Medivet family in 2021! 

The practice is situated in the pleasant countryside not too far from London and the airports at Luton and Heathrow.

The practice is excellently equipped including 3 theatre suites, a dental suite, digital x-ray, ultrasound, in-house laboratory, endoscopy, and separate dog and cat wards. We also have our own boarding kennels, cattery, and dog grooming parlour on site which makes for an interesting place to work. 

You can visit the Aston Clinton website for more details - https://www.acvets.co.uk/ 

Aston Clinton feeds into our Watford 24-hr hospital. Here, will also have access to diagnostic ultrasound, endoscopy, CT, dental X-ray, and a full orthopaedic theatre. Our seven hospital vets are always on hand to help you work up tricky cases and provide advanced surgical procedures for your patients. You are welcome to come along and assist or learn how to perform these procedures yourself.
