About us:
Bolton vets for pets is a well organised, popular first opinion practice with a large following and a varied and interesting caseload. Jen, one of the practice owners, is ideally looking for an experienced Veterinary Surgeon to join her well established team to provide the best standards of care for the local community and their pets
Bolton is a family friendly city and has ranked as one of the happiest places to live in the Northwest. The town is in close proximity to both Manchester and Liverpool, under an hour from the Peak District, one hour from Leeds, under 2 hours from the Lake District and Snowdonia National Park in Wales. The cost of living is very attractive, especially for those keen to step on the property ladder, as residents enjoy a higher standard of living that would ordinarily cost much more in other parts of the UK. Those with school aged children can enjoy a good standard of education and access to some great Colleges and Universities in nearby cities.
The Role:
At Bolton Vets for Pets we are looking for an experienced Veterinary Surgeon to come and join our caring, supportive team to cover MAT leave for 12 months, however this has the potential to become a permanent position in the practice.

Jen offers a competitive salary of up to £70,000 dependant on your experience (FTE) and a generous benefits package that you would expect from a major veterinary employer.
Jen is also very passionate about supporting all her colleagues to achieve their veterinary career goals which includes supporting you if you are looking to undertake any certificates and CPD. With a surgical Certificate Holder and Exotics vet in practice, you can be supported in this and many other specialisms in their wonderful standalone practice.
