Do you love the idea of being the trusted, "go-to" vet in your community - where clients know you by name and pets are treated like family? This established practice in North West London could be your perfect match.
This is a sole-charge position, but with a manageable caseload that allows you to balance your day - morning consults, routine surgeries, time for admin, and rounding off with evening consultations. It's a role that suits a confident GP vet who enjoys variety and values strong client relationships.
You'll be supported by an exceptional, long-standing team who are incredibly proud of the reputation they've helped build. Alongside them, you'll also have the guidance of a dedicated regional manager and a regional head vet whenever you need clinical backup.
For more complex cases or overnight care, the nearby 24-hour hospital is just 10 minutes away, with full diagnostic support including CT, advanced imaging, and a team of surgeons performing orthopaedics, soft tissue, and minimally invasive procedures.
 
The Role:
  • 40-hour working week
  • 1:3 Saturday rotation
  • 1:8 Sunday hospital rota
  • Up to 2 bank holidays per year (with time off in lieu)
  • No on-call requirements
The Package:
  • Salary: £60,000 - £65,000 DOE
  • 6.6 weeks' annual leave including bank holidays
  • £2,000 CPD budget + 5 days' CPD leave annually
  • Relocation assistance (where applicable)
  • Private medical insurance (BUPA)
  • Strong wellbeing and support programmes
If you're looking for a role where you can really settle in, become part of the local community, and enjoy the balance of sole-charge autonomy with the reassurance of hospital support nearby, this clinic offers the best of both worlds. It's also perfectly placed for vets who want a village feel with city access.
