Form of work Aintree a perfect place to work, live and explore.
Our award-winning, 2-year programme is designed by vets to give new graduates like you, the best possible start to your practice career.
You will be joining a team of 5 vets, 2 qualified nurses soon to be 4, 1 student nurse and 1 veterinary care assistant. We have 4 receptionists and a reception manager; we also have a practice manager. The practice is on a fantastic retail park so it is great for lunches! We have around 4-8 procedures daily, with a good case load with exotic patients also. We have ultrasound and x-ray equipment on site with in house lab machines. We are open Monday to Friday 9-7pm, Saturday 9-12. The vet Rota is a 4-day week with a day off in the week, Saturday Rota which is shared between the vets and no Sunday's.
Aintree is a village based in Merseyside, best known for its Racecourse since the 19th Century.
Not far from the lively city of Liverpool which has something to offer everyone, and if the City life isn’t something that interests you then you can enjoy the village lifestyle, best of both worlds.
Joining one of our network of UK practices, you’ll train on the job with experienced Veterinary Partners and Practice Owners, at a pace that works for you. We’ll find you a role that suits you, in terms of location and culture fit. And, with Vets for Pets and Companion Care practices of all shapes and sizes across the country, there’s a perfect place for everyone!
With our support, and emphasis on your wellbeing, you can realise and maintain your full potential in an environment that encourages a healthy work/life balance too.
You’ll be supported from day one by a dedicated Vet GDP Advisor, as well as the graduate and clinical teams, and online by 1,300+ vets within our clinical community.
You’ll also be able to take paid leave to attend the tailored CPD events we hold. The high-quality events we deliver as part of the programme usually comprise subjects such as practical dentistry, practical surgery, radiography, dermatology, cardiology, and more.
As you build your confidence in caring for pets and their owners, you’ll grow your own client base and see continuity of cases with the support of your wider team. You will have a phased approach to sole charge and better still, when you’ve finished the programme there’s a career waiting for you, either with the practice you trained at or within our wider community/network.
