Donview Veterinary Centre is looking for an experienced veterinary surgeon to join our friendly, social team – where we pride ourselves on our teamwork, and supportive environment.
We are a genuinely mixed practice, with a focus on work life balance, allowing you to enjoy the nearby mountains, sea and city. Normal working hours are between 0845 and 1700 over a 4 day working week, with 6.6 weeks annual leave per annum.
We are proud to offer our own out of hours service, 1:8 OOH (to increase when the role is filled). With 2 vets on call at all times – one as primary responder, the second as additional support if required. Vets are compensated with a 4 day long-weekend after every weekend on call, as well as an additional mid rota long weekend, plus additional cash benefit per out of hours call.
We have a structured rota ensuring each vet a guaranteed mix of farm, equine and small animal work, with set operating days included to allow time to work up individual cases to a high standard. 15 minute consults in bite-sized consulting blocks as standard. We hold weekly clinical meetings to allow for case discussion and collaboration, or just a catch up!

The ideal candidate would have an interest in all areas (farm, equine and small animal) but would have the freedom and support to build on any field that especially interests them, CPD is actively encouraged with a generous allowance, professional fees and subscriptions are paid for. Car available if required.
