Are you a small animal vet who's ready for a role that values you as much as your patients?
This independently owned Hampshire practice offers a refreshing alternative to the corporate model where your voice matters, your wellbeing is protected, and your career is truly supported. This modern and welcoming practice combines a relaxed, community feel with the clinical standards of a progressive, multi-site group.
You'll enjoy a beautifully equipped space featuring digital radiography, ultrasonography, and an in-house Idexx lab, plus access to visiting soft tissue, orthopaedic, and ophthalmology surgeons for those trickier cases.
You'll be joining a genuinely supportive team including an experienced owner-vet, a friendly part-time colleague, and a group network of 20 surgeons and 70 staff across 13 practices, so there's always someone to collaborate or share ideas with.  
 
The Offer:
  • Salary: £50,000 - £80,000 (commensurate with experience and hours)
  • 4-day week with 1 in 3 Saturday mornings
  • No on-call, no Sundays, no bank holidays
  • Up to 6 weeks' annual leave
  • Generous CPD allowance - certificate support actively encouraged
  • Loyalty bonus and staff referral schemes
  • Staff pets treated at cost + 25-35% Pets Corner discount
  • RCVS and VDS fees fully covered
 
This is a role where flexibility is genuinely offered — whether you're looking for part-time hours, clinical variety, or the chance to grow with a thriving, well-established group that still feels family-run.  
 
About you:
  • A confident vet with around 2+ years' experience
  • Someone who enjoys autonomy but also values teamwork and shared learning.
  • You'll have solid GP skills, good communication, and a caring approach that fits a team built on mutual respect and collaboration.
Whether you're ready to take the next step in your career or simply looking for a better balance, this is a role where you'll be listened to, supported, and genuinely appreciated.
