Part-Time Veterinary Surgeon – Brand New Practice – Glossop
Up to £60,000 Pro Rata DOE | No OOH | True Flexibility
Looking for a role that genuinely fits around your life? We’ve opened a brand-new, purpose-built Vets for Pets practice in Glossop (March 2026), and we’re now looking for an experienced Veterinary Surgeon to join us on a part-time, flexible basis.
This is more than just a part-time role — it’s a chance to be involved from the very beginning, while maintaining the work–life balance that matters to you.
Why This Role Stands Out
We know flexibility isn’t just about fewer hours — it’s about having control. That’s why we’re open to shaping this role around you:
1. Part-time hours tailored to your lifestyle
2. Flexible working patterns where possible
3. No out-of-hours
4. A supportive environment that respects your time outside of work
Whether you’re balancing family life, other commitments, or simply want more time for yourself, this role is designed to work with you, not against you.
The Opportunity
As part of a brand-new practice, you’ll have a real voice from day one:
5. Help shape how the practice operates
6. Contribute to clinical standards and ways of working
7. Build relationships within the local community
8. Be part of creating a positive, collaborative culture
You’ll have autonomy in your role, while still being fully supported by an experienced team.
The Practice
Located within a modern Pets at Home store on Wren Nest Retail Park, our newly built practice offers:
9. Bright, spacious, air-conditioned environment
10. Modern, purpose-built clinical areas
11. State-of-the-art equipment
12. A layout designed with both efficiency and wellbeing in mind
Supportive Leadership
You’ll be working alongside two highly experienced Practice Owners:
13. Ibrahim – Veterinary Surgeon (qualified 2001)
14. Leanne – Over 25 years’ nursing experience
Their focus is simple: create a workplace where people feel supported, valued, and excited to come to work.
The Role
15. Part-time hours (flexible options available)
16. Some Saturday day working
17. No out-of-hours
18. Strong focus on work–life balance
You’ll have the time and freedom to work cases up properly, with encouragement to develop any clinical interests.
Why Glossop?
Nestled on the edge of the Peak District, Glossop offers the perfect balance between nature and community. From post-work walks to weekend adventures, it’s ideal if you enjoy the outdoors — all while staying connected to Manchester and Sheffield.
About You
We’re looking for someone who enjoys being part of a team and values flexibility. Ideally, you’ll be:
19. RCVS-registered
20. Experienced in small animal practice
21. Confident with routine medical and surgical cases
22. Comfortable with occasional sole charge
23. A strong communicator and team player
What You’ll Get
24. Salary up to £60,000 (pro rata, DOE)
25. Generous CPD allowance + certificate support
26. 5.6 weeks’ holiday (increasing with service)
27. Paid RCVS, BVA & VDS memberships
28. Pension scheme
29. Wellbeing support programmes
30. Cycle to Work scheme
31. 20% colleague discount across Pets at Home Group
