About Us
PDSA is a special organisation that provides expert veterinary care for people across the UK who otherwise would not be able to afford to treat their pets. What we do really matters!
Our approach is unique as we combine pragmatism with a strong client care focus to deliver good clinical outcomes – we focus on measuring our impact rather than targets.
About You
We are looking for qualified vets who are up for a challenge and can adapt to the wide variety of cases seen at PDSA. Confidence in communicating with a wide range of colleagues and clients is essential, as is a willingness to share your skills and lead by example.
Your passion will drive you to champion the charity, promote client contributions, and always keep an eye on resources, suggesting efficiencies wherever possible.
The work is fast-paced and challenging, so we want you to have the work-life balance that suits your needs as well as enabling us to deliver an outstanding service. Ask us about flexible options!
About the Hospital
Our hospital veterinary teams have varied clinical interests, which means you will have access to a wide pool of knowledge and experience with which to discuss cases and treatment plans.
Our Pet Hospitals are modern and well-equipped, including separate dog and cat kennelling facilities, in-house radiography, ultrasound, endoscopy, piped gases, and extensive orthopaedic equipment. The size of our teams allows for a flexible approach to weekend rotas and any out-of-hours required, with enhanced pay and stand-down time in the week when a weekend is worked.
