Charity practice seeks Permanent Vet

The 52 acre site is set in beautiful countryside and is one of the largest multispecies Shelters in Europe. You will be required to work Monday - Friday 8:30-4:30 5 days per week. There is a weekend rota working Saturday and Sunday 9:30-12:30 on a 1:3 basis with TOIL for the weekend worked.

There is a self-contained veterinary suite which was purpose built in 2012, with three operating theatres, and radiography/ultrasound facilities - including dental radiography, to facilitate provision of excellent first opinion veterinary care to the animals that Wood Green helps daily from cats and dogs to chickens, guinea pigs and rabbits.

The post holder will oversee final year RVC veterinary students spending time at the shelter learning first day skills and how to deliver high quality shelter medicine care. The role will be to ensure delivery of the RVC’s clinical and teaching goals in an efficient and caring way, including teaching of neuter and dental surgeries. Confidence in own skills as well as experience in clinical teaching, is beneficial.

As a role model for RVC students, excellent communication skills and the ability to provide and receive feedback are essential. We require a strong focus on the importance of preventative health care - including confidence and experience in providing a high quality high volume neuter service.

A certificate or strong experience in basic orthopaedic surgery and/or dentistry would be an advantage.
