• A strong communicator and team player.

Experience in ECC, emergency practice, hospital work or sole-charge night work would be highly desirable, although confident vets with strong clinical foundations are encouraged to apply.

• 7 nights on / 14 nights off

• Up to £75,000, dependent on experience

• Modern, well-equipped independent clinic

• Advanced diagnostics and surgical facilities
