Overview
Join to apply for the Veterinary Surgeon - Small Animal role at IVC Evidensia UK.
This permanent role offers a well-balanced caseload between surgery and medicine. The position may appeal to a candidate with a surgical bias, as we can offer caseload and support for a certificate in this area. The role would be split between our practices in Worcestershire, with potential for career development and progression into a more senior clinical role in the future.
Salary and relocation information: relocation allowance up to £5,000 and a welcome bonus for new hires of £5,000 (pro rata).
Work pattern
Work life balance is supported with a flexible approach to rota patterns. A typical full-time role involves working 4 days per week, over 40 hours, plus a shared 1:3 Saturday morning rota (08:30 – 12:30). Vets Now covers out-of-hours emergencies, while inpatient care remains light and on a shared rota basis.
