Are you a compassionate Vet seeking a truly different kind of practice?
Our client, an exceptional independent group in rural Norfolk, is recruiting Vets (18+ months qualified) who want to put team welfare and exceptional client support first, resulting in remarkable patient care.
We are looking for Medics or Surgeons ready to embrace an environment where time, resources, and mental health support are prioritized above all else.
Salary & Financial Incentives
- Competitive Salary: Up to £57,000 DOE (depending on experience).
- Night Allowance: Vets also receive an annual £5,000 night allowance in the month they start working nights on the rota.
The Philosophy: You Come First
Unlike traditional models, this practice is built on the philosophy that the team comes first. Your well-being, future, and career growth are the focus, ensuring you are supported to deliver your best work.
Unbeatable Work Structure & Support:
- Time: Live a life of 20-minute consults for routine appointments, and 40 minutes for almost everything else.
- Focus: Theatre days are pure theatre days with no split duties.
- Breaks: The practice shuts for one hour daily so you can eat lunch and recharge.
- Protected Time: Dedicated study time is truly protected.
- Equipment: The practice consistently invests in the best supporting equipment available.
Investment in You (Beyond Salary):
- CPD & Certificates: Uncapped CPD. If you can justify it, it will be supported. Certificate study is fully encouraged and funded.
- Health: Private Healthcare from day one of employment, including a robust mental health support package.
- Mental Health: Your welfare is taken seriously:
- Access to a Mental Health Advisor who visits the site monthly.
- Remote Employee Assistance Program.
- Daily, private check-ins to ensure you feel supported by your colleagues.
- Family Benefit: If you have children, they receive a £100 book voucher each birthday from birth until age 16.
- Individuality: Embrace who you are. Join us and be you—your individuality is valued.
Practice Locations & Shifts:
The practice has two locations: The Hospital and The General Practice. Shifts will be rotated across both locations (approximately 25 minutes apart) and provided in advance. Short notice alterations will be kept to a minimum wherever possible, but flexibility is required as the nature of this role requires the Veterinary Surgeon to be active for long periods of time.
General working shift allocations are:
- Early: 7:00 AM – 4:00 PM
- Daytime: 8:30 AM – 5:30 PM
- Late: 10:00 AM – 7:00 PM
OOH Rota:
- Weekends: Rotated on a 1:5 ratio. Saturday consults (8:30 AM – 12:30 PM) followed by emergency hours through until 8:30 AM Monday morning.
- Nights: A 7-day, 12-hour (7:00 PM – 7:00 AM) waking night shift is used for emergencies and inpatient management. This is undertaken on a rotating basis on a 1:9 ratio with all associates participating. A night shift block is followed by a 7-day recovery period prior to returning to work.
Requirements:
- Experience: 18+ months post-qualification experience and completion of Vet GDP.
- Travel: Ability to travel independently between the two modern practices (approx. 25 minutes apart) in this rural area.
