Are you an experienced Veterinary Surgeon looking to join a warm, supportive team in a truly unique setting?
My client is a proudly independent, family-run small animal practice, established in 2001 and nestled in a beautifully converted 200-year-old barn in a peaceful Bedfordshire village. Surrounded by open countryside and just a stone’s throw from Stockgrove Country Park, this is the perfect opportunity for someone who values a close-knit team environment and the tranquillity of village life.
About the Practice:
• Five well-equipped consulting rooms
• In-house diagnostics: blood machines, ECG, digital radiography & ultrasound
• Dental suite, fully equipped operating theatre, and hospitalisation kennels
• Close ties with on-site boarding kennels and cattery, also family-run
• Loyal client base and a true “family feel” to the team
You’ll be joining a highly skilled and supportive clinical team:
• 6 Veterinary Surgeons (including two with surgery certificates, a medical diplomate, and an imaging certificate holder)
• Peripatetic orthopaedic surgeon
• 9 Qualified Veterinary Nurses and 2 Animal Care Assistants
• Regular, reliable locum support
• Friendly and efficient admin team: Practice Manager, 4 Receptionists, and an Accounts & Systems Manager
About You:
I am looking for a committed and capable vet with at least 2–3 years’ experience in UK small animal practice. You’ll be confident with all routine procedures and have a strong team ethic. This is a hands-on role in a busy yet supportive environment where everyone helps each other out.
The Rota:
• 40 hours/week (flexible format)
• 1 in 2 Saturday mornings (8am–1pm)
