Role overview
Shipley and Idle Vets are looking for a Veterinary Surgeon to join them on a permanent basis. We’re keen to support different rotas, shifts and hours to offer you the work life balance that you need. We run 15-minute consultations with protected admin time and breaks. We can offer a caseload tailored to your own clinical interest. If you’re looking for a consult-only role, we can consider this as well. Ideally, we’re looking for a candidate who is keen to continue to develop our already excellent clinical services.
Rota patterns and hours
We’re offering true flexibility with this role; we can support consults only, part-time hours, whatever you’re looking for. A typical full-time role would involve covering 40 hours per week over 4 weekdays (08:30 – 19:00), along with 1 in 3 Saturday mornings (09:00 – 13:00).
Professional development and team
We have a dedicated team environment where we fully support each other. Our team includes Vet Surgeons, RVNs, SVNs, VCAs and Receptionists. We have strong nurse and reception support, a dedicated mental health first aider on shift, and we offer full certificate support and development opportunities.
About the practice
We see a mix of routine and preventative work, as well as interesting medical and surgical cases. We provide first opinion care to small animals and work up cases to a high standard. We also partner with a local hedgehog charity. The practice is well-equipped, with access to a state-of-the-art ultrasound machine (abdominal/cardiac), Digital X-ray, Endoscopy (flexible and rigid), Laparoscopy and more. The practice location is in a market town near Saltaire, with good travel links to Leeds city centre.
As part of the team, you will enjoy a friendly, supportive environment and opportunities to work across a range of clinical interests.
