Wigan Vets for Pets – Veterinary Surgeon – up to £70,000 (FTE, DOE)
Do you love animals and care deeply about keeping them happy and healthy? Are you looking to join a supportive, skilled & knowledgeable team who prioritise patient care? If so, we have the perfect opportunity for you at our Wigan Vets for Pets practice!
We are looking for that special someone to join our team. We are looking for a veterinary surgeon to complement our fantastic team of 5 vets, 8 RVNs, 5 receptionists, and 3 VCAs. There is no fixed rota or set hours that we are looking to cover, we are flexible and open to discussion on what you would like your working week to look like but we would love someone to join in our Saturday rota which is 1 in 5 Saturdays from 9am until 3pm alongside the weekly hours.
We are a busy practice with an interesting caseload and we are looking for a real team player who prioritises patient care and who aims to provide gold standard for their patients and clients. We run 20-30 minutes consults in practice alongside nurse-led consults and have admin time for our colleagues built into our diary each day, to ensure that everyone leaves on time for a great work/life balance.
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.

We are looking for a Veterinary Surgeon who has experience in practice, can communicate well, excels within the consulting room, and also enjoys working with the team to create new ideas. In practice, we have the caseload to support personal and clinical development and we are open to you exploring your own caseloads in practice, assisted by the generous CPD allowance we provide.
