Veterinary Surgeon

Taunton Vets for Pets are looking for a veterinary surgeon to join their established and welcoming team for Saturdays and holiday cover only. With strong links to the local community, a close-knit team who look out for each other's well-being and the facilities and support to provide the best veterinary care, this is an opportunity not to be missed. Based on the busy Priory Field Retail Park in the heart of Taunton, our practice is thriving so this is a new role to help us keep up with our growing client base! You'll be joining an existing team of 5 vets, led by our experienced practice owner Jonathan who qualified from Bristol University in 2006 before joining the practice in 2014. Due to the nature of this role, we would be happy to consider a consults' only vet, or someone who would be happy to do some routine ops and deal with emergency cases.

Pets just see people. They aren't biased and they don't discriminate. We take our inspiration from pets, and we value and respect difference in all its forms. Our aim is to reflect the diversity of the communities we operate in, and every colleague can help us achieve this. We encourage our people to be themselves so even if your skills and experience don't perfectly align, if you think you can make a unique contribution through your values and behaviours, we want to hear from you!
