Looking for a role where you’ll feel supported, valued, and encouraged to grow?

We’re excited to offer an opportunity for a Veterinary Surgeon to join our team at our brand-new practice at Cardiff Ty Glas, a practice where clinical standards, team culture, and personal development truly matter.

Why Join Us?

You’ll work alongside two highly experienced and committed Practice Owners—one with a strong nursing background, and the other bringing over 15 years of experience, including positions as a Lead Vet and Clinical Director. Their combined experience across both independent and corporate settings means you’ll benefit from expert guidance, hands-on support, and a genuine commitment to helping you progress.

This is a practice where:

• Support and mentoring are part of everyday life
• You’ll be encouraged to develop your clinical interests
• Patient care is always thoughtful, personalised, and high quality
• Your ideas and input are genuinely valued

About the Role:

• Full-time, based on 40 hours per week
• One weekday off
• 1 in 2 Saturdays
• Flexible working requests are welcomed and accommodated where possible

We’re looking for a Veterinary Surgeon who is confident in general practice and enjoys working collaboratively in a supportive environment.

Facilities:

The practice is being developed with a strong clinical focus and will include:

• Dedicated dental suite with dental radiography
• Clean operating theatre
• Digital X-ray and ultrasound
• In-house laboratory
• Multi-parameter monitoring (ECG, pulse oximeter, capnography)
• ISFM-approved cat kennels

Location & Lifestyle:

Located in Llanishen, Cardiff, the practice benefits from excellent accessibility:

• Just 10–15 minutes into Cardiff city centre
• Around 13 minutes by train
• Easy access to the M4 and local transport links
• Free on-site parking

You’ll also be surrounded by great amenities, including cafés, gyms, and shops such as Marks & Spencer, Boots, and Homesense, all right on your doorstep.

Why Cardiff?

Cardiff offers the perfect mix of city life and outdoor living:

• Explore landmarks like Cardiff Castle, Cardiff Bay, and world-class sporting venues
• Enjoy nearby coastal spots in Penarth and the Vale of Glamorgan
• Venture further to the Gower Peninsula or Brecon Beacons for hiking, cycling, and adventure
• Bristol is just 40 minutes away

Whether you enjoy city culture, beaches, or the outdoors, Cardiff has something for everyone.

What We Offer

• Salary up to £65,000 DOE
• Contributory pension scheme
• CPD allowance with support for development
• Career progression opportunities
• A supportive, collaborative working environment

Outside of practice life, there’s a real appreciation for work–life balance and wellbeing, whether that’s hiking, wild swimming, running, or even yoga!

If you’re looking for a role where you can grow, feel supported, and enjoy both your career and lifestyle, we’d love to hear from you.
