To coin the British phrase "hodgepodge" meaning a jumble of things, we have a hodgepodge of a role that would suit a confident GP vet who likes to work between different environments, while still having a level of consistency in their rota. About your new role Working between 2 very different practices (not on the same day) you will be providing consistency to our clients and teams week in week out. There can be flexibility to how your weekly rota can look, involving 3 or 4 days between New Addington, and Croydon. Both sites have their own nuance's, and you will be fully supported in both with experienced support colleagues who have worked in their respective branches for years. The rota includes a branch Saturday rotation and 1:10 Sunday rotation in the Stone Lion Hospital plus 1 bank holiday per year. There are NO on-call requirements. As a sole charge branch vet some of your duties will include:

- Carry out consultations, thoroughly examining all pets presented and making management and treatment recommendations which are based on best practice and are evidence-based and in accordance with GVG protocols. - Perform surgery on cases as appropriate and within boundaries of personal competence and limitation of overnight care. - Maintain, prescribe and dispense all medications in accordance with appropriate current medicines legislation and RCVS guidance. - Record accurate and thorough clinical notes and ensure that pets' histories are accurate comprehensive and useful to colleagues. - Be prepared to refer cases in a timely manner, in the first instance to a GVG Hospital, when there is an inability to undertake a case for whatever reason. - Help to maintain a respectful and collaborative team environment - Work alongside your RVN to ensure branch meetings are scheduled and the clinics SOP's are being actioned - Oversee the consulting and surgical/diagnostic diary in compliance with company policies. You will have full clinical support from Stone Lion Hospital in Wimbledon, for any complex referrals you may need to make, and OOH care for your patients. You also have the support from a dedicated regional manager, and regional head vet who has a wealth of knowledge to pass on and can support you in your clinical management needs. This is a sole charge position, and you will be comfortable with routine GP consultations and surgery, but ample support is provided by management in the region. Being south of the river, you are ideally located near idyllic Kingston Upon Thames. New Addington is a stone's throw 2-minute walk from the tram link, and Croydon an 8-minute walk from the tram, where you can pick up other lines to get across the city. Now let's get to the nitty gritty: Our sole charge salary band is £60,000 to £75,000 (FTE) depending on experience and allowing room for growth within the role, as we would welcome the opportunity to provide CPD for further clinical or management development. A little snippet of the benefits you will receive as a Goddard vet:

- 6.6 weeks annual leave including bank holidays - Generous relocation assistance (where applicable) - Up to £2,000 CPD budget every year plus up to 5 days' paid CPD leave - Private Medical Healthcare Insurance with Bupa
