Veterinary Surgeon – West Yorkshire

Location: Across multiple practices in West Yorkshire
Hours: Four days per week, Monday to Friday only – no weekends, no OOH
Salary: Up to £70,000 per annum (depending on experience)

The Opportunity
GVC are proud to be assisting a well-established veterinary group in West Yorkshire in their search for an experienced Roving Veterinary Surgeon.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a vet who thrives on variety and flexibility, and who enjoys the challenge of working across different practice settings. Whether consulting, carrying out surgery, or supporting a busy hospital team, every day will bring something new.

Why this role?

Enjoy the diversity of working across multiple primary care practices, with time spent at a large, well-equipped hospital to develop clinical interests.
A rota provided at least six weeks in advance ensures excellent work-life balance.
Experience the flexibility of locum-style work with the security and benefits of being a permanent employee.
All practices are located within a short, manageable drive of each other.
Access to modern diagnostic tools and facilities, working alongside a skilled veterinary and nursing team.
A varied caseload, from routine consultations to complex cases, offering ongoing professional development.
Supportive, collaborative culture with a strong emphasis on teamwork and open communication.

The Team & Facilities
The group is known for its clinical standards and commitment to patient and client care. Many of the practices are Cat-Friendly accredited and run 15-minute consults as standard.

The main hospital is purpose-built and offers:

Spacious waiting areas with separate dog/cat zones
Air-conditioned consult rooms
Fully equipped theatres
Advanced imaging including X-ray, ultrasound, CT, with visiting MRI
Dedicated dental suite with X-ray facilities
Referral-level services such as dermatology, ophthalmology, and surgery

There’s also access to advanced procedures including laparoscopy, orthopaedics, cardiology, ophthalmology, endoscopy, and rehabilitation services (physiotherapy, hydrotherapy, laser therapy).

The team across sites is large, friendly, and highly supportive, with many vets pursuing certificates in fields such as surgery, imaging, dermatology, and cardiology. There’s also a strong social side, with organised events, wellbeing initiatives, and mental health first aiders available.

What’s Needed

Confidence to work sole charge when required, as well as within a hospital team.
Comfortable handling a mix of consulting, routine surgeries, and emergency cases.
Ability to perform routine and non-routine surgeries with care and precision.
Strong decision-making skills, from interpreting diagnostics to managing complex treatment plans.
Adaptability, resilience, and confidence in a roving role.
