Veterinary Surgeon – Small Animal
Location: South West London
Full-time, Permanent

We’re seeking an experienced, compassionate Veterinary Surgeon to join a forward-thinking independent small animal practice in London (SW18). This role is ideal for a vet who values high-quality medicine, meaningful client relationships, and a calm, supportive working environment.

The practice is redefining what veterinary care can look and feel like: kind, considered, and sustainable, with pets and their people always at the centre. With a strong ethical foundation and a genuinely collaborative culture, the clinic provides a beautifully designed, well-organised space where both clients and team members can thrive.

In this role, you’ll deliver consultations, diagnostics, and preventative care while building long-term relationships with clients.

The practice embraces modern, paperless systems and smart digital tools to streamline workflows and support a positive day-to-day experience.

To succeed in this position, you’ll be MRCVS registered with at least three years’ experience in small animal practice. You’ll bring a confident, compassionate approach to your work, be comfortable using modern veterinary technology, and share values rooted in care, integrity, and sustainability.

You’ll be supported by a well-balanced team including vets, nurses, and support staff, allowing you to focus on delivering excellent medicine with the right level of clinical support around you.
