Head of Equine Veterinary Clinical Services
Abu Dhabi, UAE | Full time | €100,000–€180,000 per year, tax free
The Vet Office is recruiting an experienced equine veterinarian to lead a brand-new veterinary clinic and rehabilitation centre in Abu Dhabi.
This is an opportunity to build a clinical service from the ground up while caring for approximately 150 resident horses, from riding school ponies to international performance horses. You'll shape the clinic's protocols, lead its veterinary team and develop its lameness, sports medicine and rehabilitation services.
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.
You'll have access to digital radiography, ultrasonography, an aqua treadmill, cold-water spa, shockwave, Class 4 laser, cryotherapy and more. As the service grows, you'll help establish a referral caseload across the UAE.
We'd love to hear from you if you have:
- At least five years of equine veterinary experience.
- Strong skills in lameness investigation, sports medicine and rehabilitation.
- Experience managing the everyday health and welfare of horses.
- The confidence to lead a team and develop a new clinical service.
- A veterinary degree and eligibility for registration in the UAE.
