AMBULATORY EQUINE VET

Are you an equine vet with a passion for horses and people and a minimum of 4 years equine experience? If the answer is yes then please read on! Our practice is growing and we have an opportunity for someone to come and join our fabulous team in beautiful Scotland. Whilst we may be biased, there really is no better place to live and work! We have an amazing team, wonderful clients and patients, and a purpose built clinic with full surgical facilities.

About You

Our Practice
Loch Leven Equine Practice was established 19 years ago with the aim of providing a dedicated service to horse owners in Fife, Kinross-shire, Perth and the central belt. Preventative healthcare and education delivered in a caring and compassionate way is at the heart of what we do because healthy patients mean happy clients.

We enjoy working up our cases to get to the bottom of the problem so we can give our clients the options to make informed decisions about how we go forwards. Then we support them with whatever decision is best for them and their horse.

Case continuity is really important to us. It benefits the care our patients get, the relationships our vets build with their clients and our team’s professional development. And our team’s development and learning is a priority. A CPD budget is agreed as a starting point but we are yet to say no to a request for training that is going to benefit our team and therefore the practice and our patients. In the past we’ve funded multiple certificates, CPD courses abroad and personal coaches for our team.

Salary
£42,000 - £58,000 This is dependent on experience, qualifications, and the skillset that you can bring to the role. A bonus is paid for every visit out of hours.
