Taking your first steps as a veterinary surgeon is an exciting milestone — and this role offers the perfect environment to grow your confidence and skills within a supportive, independent practice group in South West London.
Why this is a great first role:
  • Join a caring, independent practice group with three well-equipped branches close together in the Battersea area.
  • Work alongside an experienced senior vet who will mentor and guide you, ensuring you feel supported in consultations, case work-ups, and surgery.
  • Start by working across all three branches, then settle into a main site as you gain confidence — while still enjoying occasional variety across the group.
  • Be part of a friendly, approachable team who understand the challenges of being newly qualified and are committed to helping you succeed.
What you can expect:
  • A balanced mix of consults, routine surgery, and preventative care, with plenty of opportunities to learn by doing.
  • Time and encouragement to develop your own style as a clinician, while knowing you've got support when you need it.
  • Regular catch-ups and feedback with your mentor to guide your professional growth.
Package & Benefits:
  • Salary: £35,000
  • Supportive rota designed with your wellbeing in mind
  • Generous CPD allowance, with encouragement to explore areas of interest
  • 5.6 weeks holiday plus bank holidays, increasing with service
  • Employee wellbeing initiatives and perks
  • A chance to build a fulfilling career in London, without the corporate feel
This is a fantastic opportunity for a new graduate vet looking for a gentle, supportive introduction to practice life, with the security of mentorship and the excitement of working in one of London's most vibrant neighbourhoods.
