Job Description
Introduction
Our Client’s practice in Drumahoe, County Londonderry, offers a genuinely mixed opportunity, catering to vets looking for a 50:50 split or those with a stronger interest in small animal work. With an emphasis on support, CPD, and clear progression paths, this is an ideal role for someone ready to build a meaningful and dynamic veterinary career.
Working Hours / Rota
This is a full-time position based in Drumahoe, County Londonderry. The role includes OOH duties as part of the rota. Flexibility is available depending on individual interests across small animal and large animal caseloads.
Role Description
This is a flexible mixed position tailored to your interests—either an even 50:50 split or predominantly small animal. You will work with both first and second opinion cases, handling a varied caseload that includes high-level medicine, orthopaedics, and farm consultancy services. With excellent mentorship, the practice actively supports early involvement in advanced procedures such as cruciate surgery or herd health planning. There are clear career progression pathways available, including the opportunity to take on leadership roles, which come with enhanced remuneration.
Team Size
You will join a structured and supportive team working across multiple sites. The team includes experienced clinicians in both small and farm animal disciplines, fostering a collaborative and development-focused environment.
Practice Details
The practice spans five small animal sites and offers a strong caseload in medicine, soft tissue, and orthopaedics. The farm team focuses on consultancy, herd health, and fertility management. The practice is well-equipped with facilities including an ultrasound scanner, endoscopy, digital x-ray, and in-house laboratory. A strong CPD culture and family-feel team structure underpin the supportive working environment.
Ideal Candidate
The ideal candidate is a vet seeking a dynamic role in a supportive and structured team. They will be passionate about progressing clinically, with ambitions to develop skills such as cruciate surgery or herd health leadership. Strong communication skills and a desire to work collaboratively are essential. Whether newly qualified or experienced, the role can be shaped to your career goals.
