Bolton is located just 30 mins Northwest of Manchester City Centre and under an hour from the coast at Formby, making it the ideal location for those who wish to be active on their days off. The international airport in Manchester is also only 30 mins away which is perfect for the sunshine getaway or returning home to family during your time off. The practice itself is in Horwich on the outskirts of Bolton, with great transport link into the town centre and to neighbouring towns in the area.

The practice is looking for an additional Vet to join the team on a part time basis (up to 20 hours per week) to ease the pressure of our current vets and allow for more flexibility in the rota and time off. The team is currently made up of 4 Vets (one CertAVP with special interest dermatology, 2 enrolled on CertAVP currently), 4 RVNs, 2 VCA’s and 2 CCA’s and is led by the 3 owners. You will ideally have a couple of years’ experience in the industry as there would be occasional sole charge on the Saturdays (1 in 4) with an extra Sunday if required. 

We currently run 15-minute consults with additional down time factored into the diaries for paperwork and general breaks to suit your needs. Our nurses are also starting back up with nurse only consults to help with the workload.

The practice is home to a close-knit team with most colleagues being part of the team for many years, however we have integrated new members in team successfully as we are keen to expand the team and make everyone feel supported within practice. In addition, we do spend time together outside of work going for meals at the local eateries which further enhances the good vibe within the team.

Along with the support in practice, we are also able to provide a competitive salary, a contributory pension scheme, access to private health insurance, 20% of Vets4Pets, PAH and the Groom Room, and access to the reward hub full of high street retail discounts. In addition, we are also happy to support you through a certificate such this be something you wish to do.
