Veterinary Surgeon

Our amazing Small Animal veterinary practice is now offering a fantastic opportunity for a new Veterinary Surgeon to join our Sheffield Birley Moor team. 

About Us

The practice is on the outskirts of the vibrant, cultural centre of Sheffield as well as being within easy reach of beautiful countryside of the Peak District National Park. There are also easy transport links to the rest of the UK and beyond, given our central location - via road, rail, plane and even using our extensive tram network. You can be in London in under two hours by train!

Over the last 14 years, we have worked hard to build up a loyal client base, and are looking for a positive, enthusiastic vet to work alongside our close and friendly team. We are a first opinion, RCVS accredited practice, with 5 experienced vets, 4 RVNs, Practice Manager, Head Receptionist and 5 Client Care Advisors. We offer an appointment only service for both vets and nurses, with 15–30-minute appointments, allowing plenty of time for the more complicated cases. We also try to fit in regular tea breaks together whenever possible, such that cake and biscuits are never too far away! 

The practice turns 15 this year and we’re marking the occasion with an exciting rebrand in May/June to celebrate this milestone. 

Our bright, spacious surgery is purpose built to industry leading standards and has state of the art equipment including a dedicated operating theatre, separate cat and dog wards, new Idexx in-house laboratory kit including Sedivue urine analyser, Doppler ultrasound, digital x-ray, dentistry facilities and new ultrasound machine.

We offer a supportive working environment together with career development opportunities and an excellent package that includes a competitive salary of £40,000 - £50,000 (dependent on experience & FTE), contributory pension, paid professional subscriptions (VDS / RCVS / BVA) and exclusive company discounts and rewards - including 20% off at Pets at Home. We have a generous CPD allowance, and we actively encourage the opportunity to fund and support anyone who's keen to pursue a certificate.
 
What we can offer you

For full-time hours, you will work a 4-day week with the same full weekday off each week, plus a 1 in 4 Saturday only rota (8:30am – 4:30pm), and no OOH or in-patient responsibilities at all. We would however also happily welcome part-time applicants wanting less hours per week, as many of our staff already work very happily in this way. We even make sure no-one works on their birthday, in addition to your normal holiday allowance! 

So, if you are looking for a great work-life balance, and to work in a fun and supportive atmosphere, please do not hesitate to get in touch. We can let you know more about the position we can offer as well as work out how we can help make your next forward career move together. 

If you'd like any further information about this vacancy, the practice or our company please contact Lizzie via email; Northvet@vets4pets.com for an informal and confidential conversation. 

Alternatively, you can submit your application directly to us now and somebody will be in touch with you to discuss this further. We look forward to hearing from you!
