Job Description
The Opportunity
Are you looking to join a vibrant, supportive team just a short walk from the sea? Our client in Eastbourne is offering an exciting opportunity for an experienced Veterinary Surgeon to become part of a welcoming, forward-thinking practice. This is a fantastic role for a vet who’s confident in consulting and routine surgeries, and who’s looking to further their skills in a collaborative and modern environment.
The Practice
Purpose-built to industry-leading standards, the practice is bright, spacious, air-conditioned and thoughtfully designed with separate dog and cat areas — including dedicated waiting rooms, prep areas, theatres and kennels — to help reduce patient stress. The team prides itself on providing exceptional care and enjoys a varied caseload, allowing for real clinical development.
The practice is equipped with advanced tools and technology including ultrasound, digital radiography (including dental), an endoscope, laparoscope, in-house laboratory, laser therapy and acupuncture facilities. This enables the team to offer advanced services in areas such as keyhole surgery, cardiology, dentistry, and behaviour.
The Team
You’ll be joining a highly experienced team made up of 5.5 vets, 12 nurses, and 7 client care advisors. The culture here is friendly, open, and supportive, with a shared passion for delivering high-quality veterinary care. Clinical interests are actively encouraged, and the team enjoys access to strong internal and external CPD opportunities. If you’re looking to work alongside dedicated professionals who take pride in their work — while still having fun — this is the place for you.
The Role
This is a full-time position, though our client is open to discussing part-time arrangements for the right candidate. The standard rota includes a 1 in 4 weekend commitment and no out-of-hours work, ensuring you maintain a healthy work-life balance. Whether you’re keen to develop a specialist interest or simply want to progress within a supportive team, you’ll find room to grow here.
Ideal Candidate
The role would suit a Veterinary Surgeon with at least 2 years’ experience in small animal practice. You’ll be confident in routine consultations and surgery, enjoy working as part of a team, and have a proactive, caring approach to patient care. If you’re looking for a new challenge in a practice where your ideas are valued and your development is supported, this could be the ideal next step in your career
