Location: Clacton-on-Sea, EssexAccommodation is available in nearby Clacton-On-Sea, a short stroll from the beach. This

is available long-term at half the market value (£600 per month). It is a beautiful two bedroom flat at the seaside with views of the sea. There is room for a spouse and a child if required. The accommodation is not shared and would be treated as your own home.

Facilities: They have a non-clinical Quiet Room which was specifically designed with euthanasia appointments in mind. Due to the design of the building, clients have the option to enter and leave without setting foot in the waiting room.

Team:

  • This is a team of amazing people who are as enthusiastic about the importance of independent practice. They support each other inside work and regularly socialise outside with lunches, BBQs, bingo nights, and an annual trip to the theatre.
  • They have a fantastic nursing team consisting of four RVNs, one SVN, and one experienced VCA. The three receptionists are famous for being the best front-of-house anyone can imagine, and the Practice Manager is the kindest woman alive. She says it is her job to look after everyone so they can look after the animals.

Role: An opportunity to join the independent practice that won BEST VET UK 2023 and BEST SMALL VET UK 2024. Sponsorship is a possibility for the right candidate.

Hours: Full-time - rota to be discussed in the interview

Candidate Requirements:

  • Veterinary Surgeon with MRCVS status
  • Enthusiasm to become part of our client’s successful team
  • Minimum one year’s experience in private practice performing consults and surgery
  • Minimum surgical experience is the ability to perform bitch spays solo but more experience is welcomed

What they can offer you:

  • Proudly independent, good old-fashioned GP vetting with modern equipment and facilities. This practice will remain independent for decades to come and that’s a promise. Unconditional support from your colleagues and a warm welcome from our clients

Benefits:

  • A salary package that reflects your abilities with an annual review.
  • Salaries start at £40,000 and increase with experience and skill set up to £70,000 p/a
  • Health shield which includes 24/7 access to a GP
  • 6.6 weeks annual leave

  • Upon completion of the probation period, generous employee discount, including medications at cost
  • Job security and a guarantee the practice will remain independent until the young owner retires (and hopefully beyond!)
