Your Next Veterinary Role in the Heart of Cardiff
Quality Care • Supportive Team • Real Work–Life Balance
We are an RCVS accredited, small animal veterinary practice with 3 branches based in and around Cardiff. We believe that to give our patients and clients the best possible care, this starts with looking after one another!
We are looking for a vet to join our friendly team. Our vets work across our main hospital and branches on a shared rota, with a mix of consulting, surgical and inpatient work.
We have a local out of hours provider for our calls overnight, however we keep patients overnight Monday to Thursday, with an RVN on site to care for them. We use this hybrid approach to strike the right balance between optimal patient care and work-life balance for our team.
Modern Kit? Of Course.
We won’t bore you with a list of all the things we have, but as a modern, first opinion small animal practice we have all the equipment you would expect! For more information just ask.
The Role:
- Full time, permanent position, part time position considered for the right candidate
- Four-day week with a 1 in 5 shared Saturday rota (40hours/week)
- No out of hours work or Bank Holidays
- Our vets work a mix of consulting, operating and inpatient shifts over the week
- 20-minute consultations as standard
- Dedicated admin time built into your working day, and we believe lunch breaks are essential not optional!
** Salary –up to £60k dependent on experience**
As a long standing, established practice we have a culture based on Quality Improvement and evidence-based medicine. We pride ourselves on a structured approach to the working day, with a clinical management team present in the practice at all times.
Who are we looking for?
You’ll be an approachable team player who demonstrates excellent communication skills with both clients and colleagues. We are looking for someone with the experience and confidence to deliver outstanding client service, a good all-rounder skilled in both medical and surgical cases. You’ll thrive on working as part of a collaborative team and enjoy supporting colleagues.
The Team:
Our large team of 20 vets and nurses has a range of experience, including several certificate holders (both vets and RVNs). Your career satisfaction and progression are important to us, with further qualifications encouraged and supported.
As part of the VetPartners family, we benefit from a large network of experienced clinicians, with support through many channels including the Clinical Board.
"Park Vets has been an incredibly supportive environment, the perfect place for me to learn and grow as a vet. The team is wonderful with a great breadth of skills and experience, and I've always felt the facilities are excellent compared to other practices I've seen. I first came here for work experience, returned as a new grad, and don't plan on going anywhere anytime soon."
