Are you an experienced GP vet looking for clinical variety, professional development and the opportunity to shape a growing practice?
Clacton Vets for Pets is seeking an ambitious veterinary surgeon to join us as our third vet. Since opening in March 2025, we have rapidly grown our client base across Clacton and the wider Tendring area, with an increasingly varied and complex first-opinion caseload.
We're looking for a vet with a clinical interest they'd love to develop into a recognised area of expertise, whether that's medicine, imaging, surgery, dentistry, endoscopy or another complementary discipline.
With certificate funding available for the right candidate, you'll have the support, equipment and caseload to develop your skills and build a clinical service of your own.
You'll work alongside our practice owner and Clinical Director, whose interests include advanced soft-tissue surgery, orthopaedics and emergency procedures.
We're an independently led Vets for Pets joint venture combining friendly, accessible local care with strong clinical ambition.
Our capabilities include advanced soft-tissue and BOAS surgery, orthopaedics, emergency abdominal surgery, diagnostic ultrasound, surgical dentistry, endoscopy development and in-house diagnostics.
As a young practice, we offer genuine opportunities to influence our culture, clinical services and future direction.
You'll ideally be an experienced small-animal GP vet with sound clinical foundations, confident decision-making and a genuine interest in developing your skills.
We're looking for someone who enjoys working collaboratively, managing a varied caseload and contributing to a growing team. You don't need to be a specialist; just motivated to learn, take ownership and make a meaningful contribution.
Enjoy coastal living, comparatively accessible housing and convenient access to Colchester and the wider Tendring area. Relocation support may be available for the right candidate.
If you're looking for autonomy, clinical development and the chance to help build an ambitious practice, we'd love to hear from you.
