Location: Barnet

Salary: up to £95,000 DOE

Contract Type: Full-time, Permanent


Position Overview

At Vets Now, we believe that when your purpose is to make a difference, you deserve a team that shares your passion. In our Barnet clinic, we’re looking for a Head/Lead Veterinary Surgeon to lead from the front – inspiring clinical excellence and guiding a high‑performing, collaborative team that supports pets and people when they need it most.


Responsibilities

* Driving and upholding clinical standards across the clinic
* Supporting the growth, training and wellbeing of your veterinary team
* Identifying clinical development opportunities and shaping team progression

This is more than a job. This is a vital leadership role with real impact that helps shape the future of Emergency and Critical Care (ECC), while making a difference to patients, clients and colleagues every day.

This full‑time role averages 40 hours per week, including:

* Weekday nights and 1:2 weekends (mix of nights and days)
* Nightshifts 1900‑0900, Saturday day 1200‑1930 and Sunday day 0830‑1930
* Shared bank holidays
* No more than three consecutive nights
* Protected time for leadership duties and meetings

We understand that life outside of work matters too. That’s why we offer flexibility and can explore part‑time arrangements, depending on clinic requirements, because your balance is our priority.


Benefits

* Salary up to £95,000 DOE
* Seven weeks pro rata annual leave
* £1,875 CPD allowance + 35 paid CPD hours (pro rata)
* RCVS fees, VECCS membership, and VDS cover
* Private medical insurance
* Family‑friendly policies – enhanced maternity, paternity & adoption pay
* Leadership Development Programme
* Access to our AdvantEdge clinical training platform
* Standard pension contributions (5% employee / 3% employer)
* Up to 50% discounted pet care


Support

At Vets Now, you’re never alone. On‑shift you’ll work alongside a registered vet nurse, an animal care assistant and a receptionist, and you can contact any of our clinics or referral centres across the UK at any time, day or night, if you need to discuss a particular case or share ideas.

You’ll also be supported by our Support Office in Dunfermline, where our teams work behind the scenes to help you thrive. Our Call Handlers and Customer Care Advisors ensure you can focus on what matters most to your patients.


Inclusion and Accessibility

We welcome applications from all backgrounds and are proud to be a Disability Confident Employer. If you have a disability or health condition, we’re committed to making reasonable adjustments throughout the recruitment process.
