Night Veterinary Surgeon – Embrace Flexibility and Professional Growth in County Durham

A Small Animal Practice nestled in the picturesque County Durham is on the lookout for an Out-of-Hours Veterinary Surgeon to join its committed night team.

Why This Role Stands Out:

Exceptional Work-Life Balance: Enjoy a unique schedule of 7 continuous nights followed by 21 days off in a 4-week cycle. This structure allows ample time to pursue personal interests, travel, or simply relax and recharge.

Professional Development: The practice is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities, including an in-house laboratory, Digital X-ray, Ultrasound, and various endoscopes. With certificate holders in surgery and medicine on hand, there is robust support for further training and development in Emergency and Critical Care.

Living in County Durham: Experience the charm of County Durham, known for its stunning landscapes, historic sites, and vibrant community. Whether you prefer outdoor adventures or cultural excursions, this location offers a perfect blend of work and leisure. I was born in the county so pop me your questions about the area!

Comprehensive Benefits Package:

  • Competitive Salary: Up to £43,000 per year, commensurate with experience.
  • Accommodation: Available if required, easing the transition to your new role.
  • CPD Allowance: Annual support for continuous professional development.
  • Health Shield: Contributions towards a wide range of health and wellbeing treatments, from dentistry to sports massage.
  • Memberships: RCVS Membership paid, plus two additional professional subscriptions.
  • Insurance: VDS cover included.
  • Enhanced Leave: Generous paternity, maternity, adoption, shared parental leave, and surrogacy pay.
  • Discounted Veterinary Fees: For personal pets.
  • Perks: Access to offers, discounts, and cashback on shopping, travel, entertainment, and more.
  • Cycle to Work Scheme: Promoting a healthy, eco-friendly commute.
  • Company Sick Pay: Ensuring peace of mind during unforeseen circumstances.

This role is perfect for a veterinary surgeon eager to enhance their ECC skills while enjoying a remarkable work‑life balance. Embrace the opportunity to grow professionally in a supportive and dynamic environment, all while relishing the beauty and amenities of County Durham.

Please note you must be a qualified Veterinary Surgeon and eligible to register with the RCVS to be considered for this role.
