Veterinary Surgeon - Small Animal

Find your Future at Fenwold!

Looking for a role where you can enjoy a varied clinical caseload, work alongside an experienced and supportive team, and still have plenty of time to enjoy life outside of work? Fenwold Vets could be just what you're looking for! We're looking for a passionate Small Animal Veterinary Surgeon to join our friendly, well-established three-site practice. You'll be confident in your clinical abilities, enjoy working as part of a team and be comfortable taking on occasional sole charge responsibilities.

This is a full-time position working 40 hours over 4.5 days, Monday to Friday, with working hours of 8:30am–5:00pm. Part-time applications are also very welcome, so we're happy to discuss what might work best for you. You'll enjoy a varied and rewarding caseload, with a good balance of consultations and surgery throughout the week. There's just a 1 in 5 standby period until 6:30pm for emergency cases, with no on-call duties and, importantly, no weekend work! Out-of-hours care is provided by a dedicated OOH provider from 6:30pm onwards and throughout weekends, giving you the opportunity to maintain a great work-life balance.

The Team & Facilities

Fenwold Vets operates across three sites in Skegness, Mablethorpe and Spilsby, supported by three highly experienced Clinical Directors and a welcoming team of Veterinary Surgeons, Registered Veterinary Nurses and dedicated support staff. We're well equipped to provide excellent patient care, with modern diagnostic facilities across all three practices, including in-house blood analysers, ultrasound and digital radiography. You'll have access to the equipment and clinical support you need to work cases up properly and continue developing your clinical interests.

We're proud of our supportive team environment and want someone to join us who enjoys sharing knowledge, working collaboratively and delivering high standards of care.

Location & Lifestyle

With the beautiful Lincolnshire countryside on one side and the stunning sandy beaches of the East Coast on the other, Fenwold offers a fantastic setting for both work and life outside of it. The historic city of Lincoln is also just around an hour away. The area offers plenty of opportunities for outdoor activities, affordable housing and well-regarded local schools, making it a great place to settle whether you're relocating on your own or with family. For anyone considering a move, spacious on-site accommodation above our Skegness practice may also be available to help you get settled.

If you're looking for a friendly, supportive practice where you can enjoy a varied clinical role without compromising on your work-life balance, we'd love to hear from you!
