Salary up to £80,000 DOE | Relocation allowance up to £8,000 | Welcome bonus up to £10,000
We are looking for an experienced Senior Veterinary Surgeon to join the team at Kingswood Vets. This is a predominantly clinical role, ideal for a vet who enjoys being hands on, particularly with surgery, and wants the opportunity to work within a well equipped hospital environment alongside a strong multidisciplinary team.
You will play an important role in maintaining high clinical standards, supporting less experienced colleagues when needed, and delivering excellent patient and client care. This role is well-suited to a confident clinician who enjoys complex cases and surgical variety, without the pressure of full management responsibility.
