Veterinary Associate – Small Animal
Vets 1 Group is looking for a Vets 1 Vet.
What is a Vets 1 Vet? Put simply, someone who wants to give their patients and clients, the best care possible.
We currently have 15 Vets, all with different interests at work and hobbies at home. Individuality is embraced here and we encourage growth within the whole team. We work together, using each other’s strengths, to bring the best outcomes for our patients.
As an independent practice we are hugely proud of what we achieve each day and of the team that do it. We opened 13 years ago when the main hospital was an abandoned barn surrounded by beautiful fields. Today it is an RCVS Level 3, and ISFM ‘Gold Standard’ Hospital, full of fun exciting toys (DR X-Ray, CT, Cardiology level ultrasound, Dental suite with dental X-Ray, and an array of scopes) that is open 24/7, with a Nurse and Vet on site at all times.
Since 2020 we have a second practice in neighbouring King’s Lynn, situated in what was an old bank.
All team members spend time at both practices to ensure good team morale and a sense of cohesion. We are a single team working over two locations. No separation, no competition.
Our team are wonderful! Our Vets are supported by a great front of house team, and an incredible 24-strong nursing team. If you are looking for colleagues who do their very best for their patients, want to strive to keep up-to-date with research, want to work and play hard, want to continue to develop and improve, then we are the team for you! We encourage growth within all areas of the practice by providing an uncapped CPD budget.
Our standard working week is 4 days, with 1-in-5 weekends. We run our own nights, with a working shift, currently 1 block of 7 nights every 10 weeks, with 7 days recovery following. Each day we start consulting at 9:40am with protected time during the day to allow for you to return phone calls. The front door is closed between 12.30 and 1.30pm so you can have some lunch and enjoy a little you time.
We are ideally looking for suitability skilled 2024 graduates and older. We would particularly welcome any individuals who are 4 - 6 years' qualified. We have a number of surgical vets so would be keen to hear from vets who have an interest in medical/ consults/ dental and exotics. We are hoping to build our exotic cases so would welcome vets who have a keen interest in these types of cases.
We are also currently not in the position to offer visa sponsorship and are looking for individuals who have at least a few years experience working within the UK.
