This modern, well-equipped small animal practice in Manchester is looking for a Veterinary Surgeon who enjoys variety, values teamwork, and wants to work somewhere that genuinely cares about both pets and people.
You will be joining a genuinely supportive team with high clinical standards and a working environment where vets are trusted, listened to, and given the time to do the job properly.
This is a busy but well-run clinic within a growing, independent, family-owned group, where growth is thoughtful rather than corporate. The focus here is on doing things properly — clinically, culturally, and personally.
You'll be given time with your patients, protected admin time, and the freedom to practise in a way that aligns with your values.
 
The Role:
  • Salary £40,000 - £65,000 (DOE)
  • 4-day working week (08:30am - 7:00pm)
  • 1:2 Saturday mornings (08:30-13:00)
  • No out-of-hours
  • £1,000 CPD allowance, with support toward certificates
  • Fear Free training and accreditation provided as standard
  • 5 weeks holiday + bank holidays (with time in lieu where applicable)
  • RCVS & VDS fees paid
  • Private medical insurance including EAP access
  • Workplace pension
  • Three paid days per year to work with a charity of your choice
  • Occasional CPD trips abroad, with opportunities to attend international congresses
  • Free wellness plans
  • 25% discount on additional plans and treatments
  • A healthy mix of consults and theatre
  • 15-minute consultations as standard and daily admin time built into the rota
Whether you're looking for stability, progression, or simply a nicer place to practise, this is a genuinely rewarding option.
