Job Description

At Weymouth Vets for Pets, we've been busy investing in both our space and our people. Over the past couple ofyears we've extended the practice to include a dedicated dental suite, upgraded imaging room, larger waiting area, extra consult rooms, kennels, and a dedicated colleague space to take a breather.

We've also added some great kit, including a Vetus 50 ultrasound with colour Doppler and ECG, plus a K-Laser. Next on the list is laparoscopic equipment which is something we're really excited about as we continue to push for high clinical standards and minimally invasive care. As a result we're looking for an experienced vet to join us, ideally with an interest in laparoscopy. If you've already got experience, brilliant - but if it's something you'd like to grow into, we're very happy to support that with the right equipment, case load, and CPD.

As an RCVS accredited Nurse Training Practice we genuinely care about doing a great job - for our patients, our clients, and each other. We keep things open and collaborative, with regular team catch-ups (clinical and non-clinical) so everyone has a voice and we keep improving together.

Our vet team brings over 40 years of combined experience, including an Advanced Practitioner in Medicine. We're backed up by a brilliant, long-standing nursing and reception team, and a fantastic practice manager who's been with us since day one over 11 years ago. Stability and support really matter to us here.

We're proud to be a locally owned Vets for Pets practice, run by vetswho are genuinely hands-on in the clinic. That means decisions are made by people who actually work here, giving us the freedom to invest in what matters most; our team, and our patients.

Here's what some of our recent grads have said:

"Anna and Aimee are fantastic to work for. Whilst at Vets for Pets Weymouth, they guided me through finishing my VetGDP, and developing into a confident clinician. They've built a great team, and a very supportive environment to develop whatever area you may be interested in. The location is fantastic, and you're really able to develop a great work life balance while working here!" Elena, 2022 graduate

"Ever since starting as a new graduate at Weymouth Vets for Pets, I have felt completely supported both by the management and nursing teams. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time working here and have swiftly developed into a competent vet due to amazing teaching from senior colleagues. Regular vet team meetings allow lots of sharing of new ideas which are always listened to and taken on board. Whether new graduate or experienced vet, this practice is fantastic and l am truly sad to leave!" Georgina, 2022 graduate

"Weymouth Vets for Pets took me on as a new grad from abroad and provided me with an amazing framework to grow, learn and develop as a human and clinician. The strong leadership qualities and backup of the practice owners and the whole management team together with the amazing support of the nursing team really helped me develop my clinical and personal skills. No matter if you're experienced or still learning, the clinic will offer a professional and fun workplace where safe culture is lived, where every team member is valued, where your personal talents are nurtured and where support is given where it's needed." Sylvia, 2019 graduate

Life outside of work matters too. We're based just a 5-minute walk from Weymouth's sandy beach, making it easy to actually enjoy your lunch break or unwind after a shift. If you're into the outdoors, it's a pretty special place to be.

We're a team of 5 vets and would love someone who enjoys supporting and mentoring newer colleagues. In return, we offer flexibility where we can, protected lunch breaks, and a genuine focus on work-life balance.

Salary up to £80,000 FTE, 1 in 4 Saturdays, and no OOH.

If you're looking for a progressive, supportive practice where you can keep developing while enjoying where you live and work, we'd love to hear from you.

If this sounds like a team you might like to join please call Anna (07533728189) or to apply email anna.warren@vets4pets.com
