Veterinary Surgeon

Due to the phenomenal response from pet owners in Merseyside to the opening of our Liverpool clinic, we are already looking to grow our team!

We're on the lookout for a Veterinary Surgeon to join our friendly team at our Liverpool site. Be part of delivering affordable veterinary care to the pet owners of Liverpool.

Our affordable service provides the pets and pet owners of Liverpool with high-quality care, without the hefty price tag. With a diverse caseload, primarily consisting of sick and injured pets, you'll not only make a difference every day but also have the opportunity to apply your skills and continue learning. The clinic is supported by our 24/7 site in Ellesmere Port, ensuring ongoing care for the pets we treat.

Liverpool Clinic features six spacious consulting rooms. Our three fully equipped theatres support a wide range of surgical procedures for the diverse caseload we see. As standard for Animal Trust, we will have a dental suite with dental X-Ray, Ultrasound diagnostic room and an X-Ray suite complete with digital X-Ray.

At Animal Trust, you'll find a supportive and inclusive culture that values each individual's contribution. We operate without hierarchy, fostering an environment where every team member contributes to our shared commitment to clinical excellence.

About Animal Trust

Animal Trust stands out from other veterinary services. Firstly, we are a unique Community Interest Company, being the only veterinary CIC in the UK to date. Our primary focus isn't solely on maximising profits; instead, we are dedicated to delivering on our mission and ensuring enough profit to sustain our business in the long term.

Our vision is clear: No pet should go untreated or face euthanasia when there is a viable treatment option. We firmly believe that pet ownership should be accessible to all, acknowledging that individuals earning the Real Living Wage may encounter challenges in affording veterinary care when their pet falls ill. In response, we aim to assist. Our free consultations and transparent pricing enable our vets and nurses to break down the barriers that stand in the way of pets receiving the treatment they need.

Hours: 38 hour week, worked over 4 days with 2:9 Saturday days. We are open to discussing part-time rota options.
