Veterinary Surgeon - genuinely flexible hours, fixed term contract. Salary up to £60,000 FTE
The Role
Locally owned since 2010, Swindon Vets for Pets are looking for a proactive vet to join their friendly, welcoming team on a fixed term basis. So, if you’re looking for the continuity of working with the same team and clients but with a fully flexible rota to fit around your personal commitments, then this could be the role for you!
In joining our team and supporting a great community and client base, we are looking for an experienced vet with a broad range of GP skills. We are lucky to have a varied caseload, so you’ll be confident in all aspects of everyday small animal medicine and surgery.
We’re open to discussing working patterns and want to be accommodating as we know what it takes for the team to provide the first class care they do, so whether you’re looking for hours to work with the school run, caring responsibilities or a new hobby you’ve taken up, we’d like to consider the hours that suit you too.
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.
The position does include 1 in 3 Saturday mornings, 8.30am -1pm which will be sole charge but emergencies only.
