About this role
Salary up to £70,000 DOE | £5,000 Welcome Bonus | £3,000 Relocation Allowance
Are you an experienced Veterinary Surgeon looking for a role where you can broaden your clinical experience and explore different areas of medicine? At Holly House, you'll have the opportunity to work across general practice, referral services, emergency care and exotics, all within one supportive and knowledgeable team. We're looking for an enthusiastic vet who enjoys a challenge, is keen to develop their interests and isn't afraid to get stuck in.
Make job search work for you
Turn a broad, stressful search into a focused weekly routine.
Based primarily at our Moor Allerton hospital, you'll be exposed to everything from routine GP consultations to complex medical and surgical cases, with the chance to work alongside colleagues across a range of clinical disciplines.
Discover a diversity of caseload and experience
You'll enjoy a working week that combines consulting days, operating and dedicated inpatient time. There's also the opportunity to get involved with different departments, including shadowing our exotics and dentistry teams. We have a particularly strong medical caseload, alongside orthopaedics and more complex surgical cases, so there's plenty to keep you clinically engaged.
We're looking for someone with previous clinical experience who is eager to learn and enjoys being challenged. An existing certificate or an ambition to pursue further qualifications would be a real advantage, particularly in ECC or another area of interest. Experience or an interest in diagnostic imaging and scanning would also be welcome.
Fix or flex – find your perfect balance
Our standard full-time pattern is 40 hours across four days per week, with a share of 1 in 6 weekends. Weekend shifts are 12.5 hours on Saturdays and Sundays, with TOIL provided. You'll also share the bank holiday rota, which is planned well in advance. There are no routine night shifts or out-of-hours commitments, as we have a dedicated team looking after our night service.
We're genuinely flexible and happy to consider part-time hours and alternative working patterns. Whether you're looking for full-time hours across four days or something a little different, we're keen to find an arrangement that works for you.
Discover a place to grow
Holly House has around 11 vets across the wider practice, including dedicated exotics vets, surgeons, emergency clinicians and first opinion vets. The team includes two exotics certificate holders, a dentistry referral clinician, a surgery certificate holder and a medical certificate holder, with several colleagues also working towards ECC qualifications. You'll have plenty of experienced people around you to share knowledge and support your development.
Our Moor Allerton hospital is well equipped, with CT, digital X-ray, ultrasound, laparoscopy and endoscopy. We also have multiple consulting rooms and theatres, a large prep area, isolation facilities, TPLO orthopaedic equipment and excellent anaesthetic monitoring. Although your main base will be Moor Allerton, there may also be opportunities to gain experience across our other three branches if this interests you.
With good road links towards Harrogate, York and the wider Yorkshire region, it's a convenient location whether you're commuting or considering relocating. You'll also benefit from on-site parking, making the journey to work that little bit easier. At Holly House, you'll be joining a friendly, progressive practice that values collaboration, clinical development and delivering excellent patient care.
