Opening
We're looking for an experienced Veterinary Surgeon to play a key role in the continued growth and development of our practice. As a proudly independent practice, we're looking for an experienced Veterinary Surgeon who will bring clinical expertise, support the development of colleagues and help shape the future of our practice.
This is more than just another vet role. It's an opportunity to help shape our clinical services, influence the direction of the practice and work in an environment where your experience and ideas are genuinely valued.
About the Role
This is a full-time position working a 4-day week, with participation in our weekend and night rota as part of our dedicated in-house out-of-hours service. Our approach to out-of-hours care provides genuine continuity of care, allowing you to manage cases from start to finish and deliver the highest standards of patient care.
Alongside a varied first opinion caseload, you'll play a key role in the continued development of the practice. Ideally, you'll bring an interest in surgery or dentistry and enjoy sharing your knowledge by supporting and developing less experienced colleagues.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
This is an opportunity to influence the development of our clinical services while continuing to grow your own career within a supportive, experienced and collaborative team.
What You'll Do
- Deliver exceptional clinical care across a varied first opinion caseload.
- Support and mentor less experienced veterinary surgeons, helping to develop clinical confidence and capability.
- Work collaboratively with our experienced nursing and support teams to achieve the best outcomes for patients and clients.
- Contribute to clinical discussions, case management and the continued development of practice standards.
- Help shape the future direction of the practice through your experience, ideas and clinical expertise.
- If you have a particular interest in surgery or dentistry, you'll have the opportunity to help develop these areas further.
What We're Looking For
- MRCVS registered Veterinary Surgeon with significant experience in small animal practice.
- A confident clinician with excellent diagnostic, medical and surgical skills.
- A collaborative team player who enjoys sharing knowledge and supporting the development of colleagues.
- Excellent communication and relationship-building skills with clients and the wider practice team.
- An interest in surgery or dentistry would be an advantage, but is not essential.
- Someone who wants to contribute to the continued growth and success of an independent practice.
