Are you ready for a role that gives you back control, flexibility, and genuine clinical satisfaction? Whether you're local to West London or considering a change of scenery, this is an exciting opportunity to join a team where veterinary care still feels personal, thoughtful, and progressive.
We're supporting a proudly independent, vet-led practice in West London known for its outstanding reputation and values-led culture. This role offers the rare blend of variety, autonomy, and development—rooted in a team that puts quality care above corporate KPIs. You'll be based across two sites: a beautifully equipped main practice and a calm, cat-only clinic nearby, where you can immerse yourself in feline medicine if that's your passion.
You'll be joining a highly skilled, collaborative team that includes certificate holders across surgery, neurology, ophthalmology, and internal medicine. It's the kind of environment where knowledge is shared, discussion is encouraged, and excellence is a shared goal—not a pressure point.
This position offers a true work-life balance with a four-day working week, no Sunday commitments unless you prefer them, and a relaxed Saturday rota. Leadership genuinely supports wellbeing and career development, making this a great option for vets looking to invest in themselves as much as their patients.
The right candidate will be a confident vet with several years' experience in small animal practice, comfortable with all routine surgery and medicine. You'll be someone who values clinical integrity and wants to be part of a team where your voice matters. An interest in pursuing further CPD or a certificate is warmly welcomed—and actively supported.
This West London location is well-connected, vibrant, and close to green spaces and amenities. Whether you're commuting or relocating, it offers a wonderful balance between city life and peaceful living.
Benefits include:

  • Salary up to £75,000 DOE

  • Four-day week with a flexible day off

  • No Sundays required (unless preferred)

  • Cat-only clinic exposure for feline-focused vets

  • Unlimited CPD allowance with certificate funding

  • Visa sponsorship available

  • Generous holiday entitlement

  • Advanced equipment and clinical autonomy

  • Access to a network of exceptional clinicians across London and the Southeast

If you're looking for a supportive, forward-thinking environment where you can truly thrive, we'd love to connect. At Vetmatch, we only partner with practices where we'd be happy to place our own colleagues and friends. Let's see if this could be the right match for you.
