Summary

Veterinary Surgeon (GP) – East London
£45,000 – £61,000 DOE | Full-Time | Excellent Benefits Package

We’re excited to be working with Veterinary Hospital based in East London, to find an experienced and confident GP Veterinary Surgeon to join their team. This is a fantastic opportunity for a vet who thrives in a hospital environment and wants to play a role within a highly skilled, supportive, and well-equipped practice.

About the Role

This is a full-time GP role based at Wanstead Hospital, East London. The ideal candidate will be comfortable with routine surgeries – including spays and dentals – and confident managing emergency cases. You’ll be working alongside a team of experienced hospital vets, RVNs, students, nursing assistants, and a strong front-of-house team, with clinical managers and senior vets on hand to provide support.

Wanstead offers a truly varied caseload, combining first opinion, emergency, critical care, and referral services, while maintaining the highest clinical standards. You’ll also benefit from access to state-of-the-art diagnostic facilities, including:

CT scanner
Commercial laboratory
A highly skilled medical team
Experienced surgeons conducting advanced orthopaedic, soft tissue, and minimally invasive surgery on site

Rota & Hours

Average 40 hours per week over a 6-week rotation
Includes 1:3 Saturdays and 1:6 Sundays
Involvement across consulting, surgery, wards, and ECC
Rota includes up to 2 bank holidays per year
Participation in last-resort on-call rota

Location

Wanstead offers the best of both worlds – sitting on the outskirts of urban Essex while still being a short step from countryside escapes. With a Central Line tube station just a short walk away, transport links into central London couldn’t be easier.

Salary & Benefits

Salary: £45,000 – £61,000 DOE
6.6 weeks annual leave (including bank holidays)
Private Medical Insurance (BUPA)
£2,000 annual CPD allowance + up to 5 paid CPD days
Relocation assistance (where applicable)
Plus, opportunities for development and progression within one of London’s leading veterinary group
