• Collaborate with two experienced Vets who have special interests in orthopaedics and soft tissue surgery, an excellent opportunity to enhance your skills and grow clinically.
• Work with outstanding on-site facilities, including a fully equipped in-house laboratory, ultrasound, digital radiography, and endoscopy.
• Enjoy a flexible rota tailored to your lifestyle—choose between a 4 or 5-day working week, with only 1 in 3 Saturday mornings. Part-time applications are warmly welcomed.

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a dedicated Veterinary Surgeon to join a well-established, RCVS-accredited practice set in the picturesque Essex/Suffolk border region. Surrounded by the stunning Suffolk countryside and with excellent transport links to both London and Cambridge, this is an ideal location for work-life balance.

You'll become a valued member of a warm, supportive team, working full-time in a role that offers a rewarding mix of surgical and medical cases. With a well-balanced rota of consultations and procedures, you’ll enjoy a varied caseload that keeps each day engaging.

The practice is also actively involved in the local community, sponsoring school events and fetes to promote animal welfare and team engagement.

The clinic is equipped with excellent modern facilities, including an in-house laboratory, ultrasound, radiography, endoscopy, and orthopaedic surgical capabilities, ensuring you have the tools you need to deliver top-tier care.
