Your role and responsibilities
Due to our continued development, we are looking to welcome an experienced Veterinary Surgeon to the team at our busy first-opinion Wicstun Veterinary Hospital.
We would welcome any certificate holders or individuals working towards or looking to start a certificate. Equally, the position would suit someone looking to consolidate their skills as a high-quality GP.
The role could suit a more recent graduate looking for a supportive environment with an exciting caseload. You will be working alongside our experienced and hands-on nursing team many of whom hold further qualifications.
Any candidate will find us an experienced, forward-thinking, friendly, and encouraging team who are constantly striving to improve standards for our patients, their owners, and our colleagues. There is the opportunity for flexibility in your working hours so please talk to us about your requirements if you feel we may be the right fit for you.
The post includes rotating through our theatre and inpatient teams as well as consulting (15 minutes as standard) shifts. The word team is often thrown about but that is exactly what we have here. From our admin team to our incredibly experienced nurses and our vets. We would invite any interested vets to spend a day or two with our team so you can appreciate exactly what we mean. We have all the usual toys and more beyond with CT and Laparoscopic procedures along with orthopaedic procedures being regularly performed.
You would be part of a fantastic and growing team with support available from certificate holders in internal medicine, imaging, behaviour and surgery . We also have vets completing certificates in ophthalmology and cardiology to name a few. Our range of interests mean that the majority of cases from medical work ups to intricate orthopaedic procedures are carried out here by our own vets for our own clients.
As a busy hospital practice, there is the opportunity for flexibility in your position – for example the possibility of biasing your work towards inpatient care, surgery, or a consulting-only position. We have a night team meaning out of hours can be optional depending on your interest . Having our own team of night vets and nurses enables us to work up our cases thoroughly, supporting our clients with continuity of care and giving our team real case satisfaction, seeing the most complex of cases through to completion. We also have a number of branches that support our hospital allowing our veterinary team the option of working in different locations.
We have the most incredible clients and play an active role in our community supporting numerous events and many animal charities. Within our group we have alternative roles including an exciting branch lead role . To apply please contact us at joinus@wicstunvets.co.uk
