Are you passionate about caring for both people and their pets? We’re looking for an enthusiastic, positive, and proactive individual to join our fantastic team!

We are a family-owned, independent group of practices who believe that providing an exceptional client experience is just as important as providing outstanding pet healthcare.

We are looking for someone who wants to join our modern, state-of-the-art clinic (separate dog and cat wards, and our innovative pod design in the waiting area – designed to make visits less stressful for pets and their owners).

37.5 hours per week Monday – Friday including a share of the Saturday morning rota.

Experience is preferred.

• You will be part of a team of like-minded colleagues.
• We are people focused, ask any of our team. The deal is that you work hard and in return we will look after you to the best of our ability.
