Are you looking for a better work life balance?
Our flexible approach to rota patterns can truly enrich your work life balance. We know that everyone has demands and priorities outside of their career and we want to make it easy for you to strike the right balance. Whether you need to do the school pick up, need reduced hours during school holidays or would simply like a more flexible rota pattern we can fix or flex our patterns to suit your needs
We're looking for a vet to join us on Fridays (9:30am-6:30pm) and 1 in 3 Saturdays (8:30am-12:30pm). Alternatively, if you're only looking for weekend work, we'd be happy to consider a vet for 2 in 3 Saturdays. There are no out-of-hours responsibilities, as all emergency care is covered by Vets Now Glasgow.
About Us
At Shore Veterinary Centre, you'll find a warm, welcoming, and supportive team made up of 5 Veterinary Surgeons, 4 Registered Veterinary Nurses, 2 Veterinary Care Assistants, and 2 dedicated Receptionists. We pride ourselves on a collaborative working environment, encouraging case discussions, regular team meetings, and a focus on quality improvement. Our experienced and proactive nursing team includes a certificate holder in nutrition, with another currently working toward a certificate in anaesthesia. We actively support further development and welcome individual clinical interests.
The practice was recently renovated and is well-equipped for day-to-day general practice, with modern facilities including multi-parameter monitors, Bair Hugger warming systems, ultrasound, digital X-ray, and dental X-ray. We have a lovely, loyal client base, offering scope for further work-ups and continuity of care.
We're based in Gourock, a beautiful coastal town on the west coast of Scotland, with stunning views across the Clyde and excellent rail links to Glasgow. The area offers fantastic walks, beaches, and outdoor activities-and we might be the only practice in the UK with an outdoor swimming pool just across the road!
