Due to an upcoming new arrival and to provide the best support for the team, Dyfed Farm Vets are looking for maternity leave cover from Summer onwards. Our priority is finding a vet with the right attitude, aptitude and enthusiasm to complement our team as opposed to a specific skill set or experience level. The position could be made permanent for the right candidate.
Dyfed Farm Vets is a friendly, progressive farm only practice based in Carmarthenshire, South West Wales. We have 13 vets, 4 ATTs/vet techs and an experienced team of reception and admin staff spread across our 2 branches in Carmarthen and St Clears (8 minutes apart).
Our working area covers Carmarthenshire, with some clients in Pembrokeshire, Ceredigion and Swansea and includes some of the country's best coastline and beaches.
Our team consists of a mixture of experienced vets and newer colleagues, certificate/DBR holders and full and part time staff. We provide a broad range of clinical services with plenty of dairy fertility work, health planning and obstetrics to go around. We also have dedicated on site examination facilities and kit to work up cases in more depth if that is more your cup of tea. With Flock Health and Smallholder Clubs, bull and ram fertility testing as well as burgeoning Advanced Breeding Services for sheep and cattle we can cover most areas of interest!
Out of hours cover is shared equally amongst the team on a 1/6 rota. We have 2 vets on call at a time and FT vets work a half day following a night duty. A day off in lieu is given during the following week after a weekend on call.
Other benefits for the position include:
2. Professional memberships funded (RCVS & VDS)
3. 5 weeks annual leave plus Bank Holidays (or equivalent) pro rata
4. CVS Refresh – one of our health and wellbeing rewards. Our teams receive a weekly allowance to spend on tasty treats or fitness classes!
5. Mental Health first aiders and Employee Assistance Programme - our people are at the heart of what we do, and your health & wellbeing matters!
6. Colleague discount on pet treatments and products
7. A range of other flexible benefits such as Cycle to Work Scheme, Gymflex and more
