About this role

Working as an emergency Vet Surgeon will expose you to an interesting range of cases that you simply won’t see in general practice.

Enjoy a balanced and sustainable career that is designed around you

At Vets Now we champion work/life balance and understand how important this is for our people. Working a fair share of weeknights, weekend days/nights (1:2) and bank holidays, you will work an average of 3 shifts per week for a full-time average 40 hours per week contract.

As with any role within Vets Now we appreciate that one size doesn’t fit all. Finding the right work/life balance for you is our priority, so we could also possibly consider this role on a part-time basis – depending on clinic requirements.
