Do you want to work in a world class business? Alfold Veterinary Surgery is looking for a Practice Vet Leader to join our friendly team. This is a rare and exciting opportunity for someone to take ownership of a practice, lead and direct a fantastic team and have influence over future progression with the amazing background support of Vet Partners.
About us
We are a well-established local practice with an extremely loyal client base and a very experienced, long-standing team. Our team have just voted us as a 'world class' place of work in our recent employee engagement survey. One of our vets says: "Alfold is the best team (family) to work for. A village practice under a fantastic VetPartners umbrella. Amazing team, brilliant clients, and a gorgeous location. I've not experienced such a balanced work-life post at any of my previous practices. A real unicorn practice!"
We are located in a beautiful converted barn in the picturesque Surrey countryside, just next to the West Sussex border and only half an hour from Horsham and Guildford. With some wonderful natural attractions and good food and drink (even a delicious cafe directly opposite with home-made pizzas!), there is plenty to enjoy in your downtime.
About you
- We are looking for someone who is inspiring, enthused by progress, keen to continue to promote a culture of support and collaboration and who likes to develop their own loyal client base.
- Previous leadership experience would be ideal, but Vet Partners has excellent leadership training support in place (and practice has very experienced practice manager to support) so someone driven and motivated with a leadership career pathway in mind should also consider this role.
- Ideally, we are looking for someone with a surgical bias as plentiful surgical case load and superb nursing team to support.
The role
You would be joining our caring, experienced team of 1.5 vets, 6 RVNs, 1 student VN and 3 receptionists. Our highly supportive nursing team also run their own clinics and we have support from a local hospital allowing for excellent internal referrals.
Ideally you will work full-time 40 hours but we will consider part time and we are very open to discussing other hours to suit your needs. You will contribute to the development of a Saturday rota but a work/life balance can definitely be achieved - the latest finish will be 6:30!
