Equine Veterinary Surgeon 

£38,000 - £55,000 dependant on experience

Are you looking for a genuinely sustainable ambulatory role with a varied caseload, modern kit, and a realistic rota? Join our established 5-vet equine team in South Yorkshire, where clinical standards and work-life balance are both taken seriously.

Our approach is practical, collaborative, and focused on delivering high-quality, sensible care that works in real-world ambulatory settings. Our caseload is genuinely varied, spanning routine work, dentistry, lameness investigations and reproductive services. Many of our clients are pleasure horse owners, alongside a selection of competition and professional yards.

We also run a busy and rewarding stud service, including chilled and frozen AI and neonatal care, working with a wide range of studs from Thoroughbreds to Miniature Shetlands.

We are well equipped for ambulatory practice, with:

•  Digital radiography (2 portable systems)  
•  Multiple ultrasound machines  
•  Video endoscopy & gastroscopy  
• Oroscope  
• Shockwave therapy  
• Motorised Deason dental kits

This role would suit a veterinary surgeon with some ambulatory experience or a recent intern looking to develop further. However, we are a new graduate-friendly practice with a strong track record of mentoring, and welcome applications from new graduates who are keen to learn.

The Role

• 4-day working week with fixed day off (Wednesday)   
• 1:8 weekend and 1 weeknight in every other week on-call rota  
• Varied ambulatory caseload with strong client continuity  
• Working alongside 5 vets, RVN and support staff  

Days are well structured, with a good balance of routine and more involved cases. Time is allocated for in-person clinical discussions, emergency slots, follow-ups and admin.

Both full-time and part-time applicants will be considered, and we are happy to discuss flexible working arrangements. 

What We're Looking For 

We're looking for a motivated vet who enjoys ambulatory work, communicates well with clients, and is confident working both independently and as part of a team.

Essential requirements: 

• Qualified MRCVS Veterinary Surgeon eligible to work in the UK 
• Full UK driving licence 

What We Offer 

• Collaborative and experienced team environment 
• Good work-life balance with a balanced on-call rota 
• Opportunity to develop clinical skills within a varied caseload 
• Flexible working options (full or part-time) 
• Competitive salary based on experience 
• Annual leave allowance of 6.6 weeks including bank holidays, with opportunity to buy or sell
• Paid professional fees (RCVS, VDS)
• Company pension and share save scheme
• CPD encouraged and supported. Funding opportunities for further education e.g. CertAVP
• Grants available to fund research
• Support from our larger network of clinical experts at CVS Vets, with opportunities to be involved in research projects, quality improvement initiatives and discussion groups
