The Role
Here at Kernow Vet Group we are looking for an Equine Veterinary Surgeon to join our team. You will be carrying out first opinion equine work and developing the practice.
The rota will include working full time from 8:30am-6:30pm over 4 days per week but we are flexible. There will be 1 in 6 nights and weekends involved and part time applications will be considered. Lunch is diarized and admin time scheduled as needed.
The salary will be up to £60,000 depending on experience.
About Us
We are well equipped with all battery-operated digital DR X-ray, ultrasound, gastroscope and battery dental machines, an in-house lab, knock down box, and the ability to use our neighboring IVC practice's facilities including operating and hospitalization facilities.
The practice is based in the enviable position of Mid-Cornwall giving great access to North and South coasts, moors, and woods.
We have a team of 5 FTE Equine Vets supported by our Animal Care Assistants and Admin Team. Our team has described our practice as follows:
"Warm, welcoming, within days of starting you feel part of the team."
"Supportive and encouraging."
"It's about the team we have - friendly, supportive and a social team which is an added bonus."
"Amazing colleagues. Cakes and pasties. Stunning countryside and coast. A diverse workload. Room for you to develop your own areas on interest."
"Opportunities. Variety. Sociable."
Applicant Requirements
We are looking for a Veterinary Surgeon with some experience and a positive attitude who is willing to work under their own initiative as well as part of a friendly, supportive and sociable team. As you are aware no two days will be the same and despite the best-planned diary sometimes things don't run to plan. We expect a little understanding, flexibility, and to give and take in these scenarios. Any extra time at work is given as TOIL.
