J482176 Shoreham-by-Sea South Coast £50K - £65K / Year

Experience Vet Surgeon Required In Shoreham

An established, RCVS-accredited small animal practice on the South Coast is looking for an enthusiastic Vet Surgeon to join their experienced team. The role will be split across two modern branch practices, with the support of a large, purpose-built hospital nearby for more complex cases and emergencies.

This independent-minded group has been serving pets in the region for over 40 years, with a strong reputation for clinical excellence and a friendly, collaborative working culture. Their team includes multiple certificate holders and colleagues with a wide range of clinical interests, making it an ideal environment for professional development. CPD is strongly encouraged and well-funded, with opportunities to pursue certificates and develop areas of special interest.

You'll be working 4 days per week (8am6pm) across both branches, with 1 in 4 Saturdays on rota (consults only, with support from the central hospital). Sole charge will be required at times, so confidence and experience in managing your own caseload is important. You'll have the autonomy to work up cases, with the reassurance of being able to transfer emergencies or complex patients to the hospital team.
