Veterinary Surgeon

As a Vet you will be accountable for patient care within the clinic, whilst ensuring we deliver exceptional care, always there for our clients, patients and colleagues whilst maintaining the highest levels of regulatory and operational standards and compliance.

Your career means more than a rota and a job title, that’s why we offer: We are creating an exciting opportunity for a new vet to join our growing team, working across our two clinics in Minster and Birchington, alongside Branch Partner co-owner Dan Shaw and a team of experienced colleagues.

Dan is an Advanced Practitioner in Diagnostic Imaging and brings an enthusiastic and supportive approach to clinical work. As a co-owner of both practices, Dan is genuinely invested in the team, the clinics and their future. This creates a positive environment where your ideas, development and wellbeing matter, and where you can be part of a team that is committed to continually improving both practices and providing excellent patient and client care.

You’ll be joining a well-supported team of 2 HRVN and 3 RVNs, with access to progressive facilities including advanced ultrasound and laparoscopy. There is plenty of opportunity to develop your clinical skills and interests while working alongside experienced colleagues in a supportive and forward-thinking environment.

The Minster and Birchington practices are located in neighbouring villages, close to the beautiful Kent coast, popular Margate and historic Canterbury, with excellent rail links to London and the Continent.
