Lead Veterinary Surgeon

At Runcorn Vets for Pets we’re offering a salary to £70,000 for an experienced Vet to join our established and friendly team.
This is the perfect steppingstone for an experienced vet to progress into leadership and inspire the current team, whilst being instrumental in the direction the practice takes.
Are you looking for the chance to work flexibly, enjoying clinical freedom and learning opportunities? By joining us we will help you develop your career and pursue any area of interest with guidance and support from both practice colleagues and our highly experienced regional team.
The practice opened three years ago and is located on the outskirts of Runcorn on relatively small retail park, which is just off the A56 and the M56 giving easy access to Cheshire, Merseyside and Wales along with many other locations and attractions in the North West.
Our surgery is purpose built to deliver the highest clinical standards and provides excellent facilities, giving you access to all the equipment and space you need to care for your patients. We already have a loyal client base with the potential for further growth, and cases can be worked up locally giving you the opportunity to develop any specific interests you have, with certification encouraged and fully funded. It also has the benefit of a number of referral hospitals and specialists within easy travelling distance for clients and for CPD.

This role will be 40 hours per week, with Saturday mornings on a rota basis, and we can be flexible for the right person.
You'll need to feel completely confident in sole charge but there is no OOH requirement. An interest in surgery is particularly welcomed as the practice matures.
As you’d expect, we offer all the standard benefits (pension, healthcare, paid memberships etc.) plus a few more, such as excellent career progression and exclusive lifestyle and shopping discounts (up to 30% off at Pets at Home). We’re also happy to provide relocation packages from within or outside the UK, including visa sponsorship if needed (we’re an A+ rated sponsor).
Pets just see people. And just like pets, we embrace everyone’s differences. We work to break down barriers, attract and develop diverse talent, and create a culture that allows everyone to be the best they can be.
Our diversity and inclusion vision is that everyone is welcome and feels part of our business. So if you think you’re a good match to what we are looking for, and you share our belief that together ‘we’re better with pets’, we’re waiting to hear from you, whatever your background or circumstances.
