Miramar Vets in Sheringham offers a strong focus on clinical leadership and development for the confident and capable vet looking to progress their career.
Modern Facilities Designed for Excellence
Miramar Vets is a bright, spacious and welcoming practice designed to make every day enjoyable and well supported. With four consulting rooms including a dedicated RVN consulting space and a peaceful rainbow room, our environment is built around comfort and care. You’ll find separate reception areas for cats and dogs, species‑specific kennels, an isolation ward, and a fully equipped in‑house lab with external support from IDEXX. Our clinical facilities include a generous prep room, a well‑organised theatre, a dedicated X‑ray room, and ultrasound. Behind the scenes, our two shared offices and staff room (well‑stocked with tea, coffee and snacks) give the team space to unwind and stay connected.
Caseload and Clinical Work
As a Senior Veterinary Surgeon you will work closely with the Director of Practice and Clinical Services to support clinical excellence, contribute to team development and help shape the future of the practice.
This role combines hands‑on clinical work with leadership responsibilities, including mentoring colleagues, supporting clinical standards and managing more complex cases. Patients are predominantly cats and dogs, with rabbits, small furries, occasionally chickens and wildlife. During peak seasons we see a higher volume of tourists, providing a varied workload. Each vet enjoys a guaranteed ops day, typically involving routine but rewarding surgeries such as spays, castrates, lumpectomies, dentals, splenectomies and more. We aim for continuity wherever possible and keep most cases in‑house.
Equipment
We offer a full IDEXX suite, ultrasound, dedicated X‑ray facilities, endoscope, bronchoscope and a wide range of supportive equipment. Dental X‑ray is already on the way. As an ISFM Silver practice and a Dog Friendly accredited practice we are committed to high standards for pets and owners.
Work‑Life Balance
The role can be structured over four or five days, totalling 40 hours per week, with a 1‑in‑3 Saturday morning (8:15‑12:30, time given back in lieu). There are no OOH requirements thanks to a partnership with a neighbouring practice. Sole‑charge shifts occasionally form part of the week; confidence and capability in all areas are essential.
Team and Development
You will join a friendly and highly skilled team of four vets, one of whom holds a dental certificate, alongside five RVNs, one SVN, one VCA, four receptionists and a Practice Manager. We support certificate study for those wishing to further their clinical interests.
Community Roots
Miramar Vets has proudly served the Sheringham community for over 50 years. We support charities such as Cats Protection and Guide Dogs for the Blind, and we are involved locally from school visits to dog shows at the community carnival.
