Unlock Your Passions at Abbeymoor Vets
We are a friendly practice located in Sheffield, a brilliant city with 2 theatres, good shopping and cinemas. It is also next door to the glorious peak district which is amazing for hiking, biking and climbing. It is close to M1 so easy to get around the country too! This graduate role will initially be based at our Halifax Road site, but eventually may need to work occasional sessions at Abbey Lane.
We are committed to staff wellbeing and patient care. We hold regular whole practice meetings and regular clinical Vet meetings. The practice is like a big happy family. We like to get involved in the local community and support local charities such as Cat Ching and Yorkshire Poundies. Regular social nights out are enjoyed by all!
We have excellent practice facilities including digital x‑ray, digital dental x‑ray, ultrasound (micro convex, cardiac and linear probes) laparoscopic surgery, lab machines, 2 operating theatres and a dedicated dental area. We support personal development across the whole practice and have three certificate holders, 1 vet with GP cert medicine, 1 vet with GP cert surgery and 1 vet with GP cert behaviour. Case discussions are actively encouraged.
Enjoy a welcoming environment with structured support and flexibility to suit your lifestyle.
Your normal hours of work are 40 hours per week. This will be split over 3 full days (10 hours), 2 half days (5 hours) and 1 Saturday in 4 with a day off in lieu when a Saturday is worked. There is no on call.
We want to help you become the Vet you want to be! We will support you to develop all the competencies you need to be a good GP vet and beyond!
