Veterinary Surgeon - Part Time| Modern Practice | Supportive Team

About us

Practice Owner Sylvia Annies, qualified in Hannover and has a wealth of experience spanning over 31 years, 15 years running Barry Vets for Pets.
Sylvia’s supportive team consists of another 4 Vets, 3 RVNS, 1 SVN, 1 PCA and a strong team of 5 Receptionists, all supported by an experienced and supportive Practice Manager.

Our wellbeing is as important to us as our patients care, and we therefore also have two colleagues who are trained Mental Health First Aiders

The practice

The practice itself has recently undergone a refit and now boasts 5 new consult rooms, a brand new, dedicated colleague room and all the usual equipment you’d expect from a first class GP practice including digital X-rays, doppler blood pressure monitor, full in-house lab and ultrasound scanner.

Our great location also means we benefit from an interesting variety of cases caring for dogs, cats, rabbits and all sorts of small furries, and a superb loyal client base.

The role

This rewarding role is part time, working 3 days a week with a day off when working the weekend rota which consists of just 1 in 4-5 Saturdays, 9am to 6pm. There are no OOH.

This is a mixed role of surgery and consults, with consults given 15 to 30 minutes depending on the type of consult.

Our diaries are organized well and include a 45 minute - 1 hour lunch break, as well as catch up time through out the day.

What’s on offer

• Salary between £45,000 to £65,000 commensurate with experience
• Saturdays are 1 in 4-5 with no OOH
• A very supportive and friendly working environment with mental first aiders on site
• 5 weeks annual leave inc bank holidays (pro rata)
• Day off for your birthday
• Funded CPD and time off, including funding towards certificates
• Contributory pension scheme
• Paid memberships (RCVS, VDS, BVA)
• Exclusive company discounts and rewards – including 20% off at Pets at Home and the Vet Group

And there’s more!

We are situated in Barry, South Wales, close to the vibrant capital of Wales, Cardiff, and with the amazing beaches of Barry Island nearby. The Brecon Beacon National Park with its beautiful mountains, valleys and waterfalls are also in easy reach. The surgery is positioned within a Retail Park at the waterfront in Barry overlooking Barry Island, with excellent parking, good connections for bus and train travel and a variety of shops.

If you would like to join our winning team and you share our passion for delivering outstanding pet healthcare and great customer service, then we would love to hear from you.
