About Us
Our veterinary surgeon owned and led practice is looking to welcome an experienced and friendly RVN into their team at Vets for Pets Oldham. They are an in-store practice located on an attractive local retail park with a range of big-name retailers offering plenty of places to shop and eat at lunchtimes. The local area also has a great deal to offer, close to the vibrant and cosmopolitan city of Manchester, with its legendary nightlife, and a stone’s throw from the expansive and stunningly beautiful countryside of Saddleworth Moor and the Peak District with a wealth of walks and places to explore.
The practice has excellent transport links, close to the M62 and with several of the local towns, where colleagues live, serviced by Manchester’s Metrolink, which can carry you quickly into the centre of Manchester for days out or on to Manchester Airport for trips further afield.
Our Oldham Vets for Pets practice is owned and run by Barbara, who is supported by her husband Greg and the rest of their fantastic team. Barbara has been a qualified veterinary surgeon for over 25 years and has a wealth of knowledge both surgical and medical, that she enjoys using to support and mentor her colleagues.
Barbara and Greg have been running the practice since 2019 and one of their key goals when they took over was to make Vets for Pets Oldham a great place to work. They believe strongly in creating a collaborative, supportive and welcoming work environment where colleagues enjoy working, thrive and feel empowered to give their best to their patients and clients.
With more than 440 small animal practices across the country, of all shapes and sizes, Vets for Pets is one of the largest UK veterinary groups and offers Veterinary Surgeons a range of opportunities. What really makes Vets for Pets unique however, is our partner owned practices which are all run by their local practice owners. The partner owned practices have complete clinical freedom and our practice owners decide how their practice will be run. This means you will be part of a local team that can support your individual needs and at which you can have an impact on how the practice operates, develops and grows and, if you wish, have the opportunity to own and run your own practice.
About you
You’ll be a people person who understands this job is not just about giving the best care to our patients but also about providing great service to clients and building good relationships with colleagues. You’ll be someone who enjoys working in a collaborative environment, happy to jump in and support your colleagues when they need it and enjoys getting that same support in return. You’ll enjoy taking pride in what you do and derive satisfaction from being able to help shape and mould the business and environment in which you work.
