This friendly, ambitious small animal practice in Cardiff is looking to welcome a Veterinary Surgeon into their established and genuinely supportive team.
This is a brilliant opportunity for a vet who enjoys a balanced mix of medicine and surgery, thrives in a collaborative environment, and wants to continue developing clinically without feeling rushed or overstretched.
You'd be joining a busy but well-run GP practice with a strong sense of teamwork and stability. The clinical team is made up of multiple experienced vets, RVNs, and student nurses, supported by a highly capable non-clinical team and an engaged, hands-on Practice Manager.
There's a real emphasis here on communication, reflection, and support with regular clinical meetings, practice catch-ups, and 1:1s are part of everyday life, ensuring everyone feels listened to and backed in their role.
The practice has benefited from recent expansion, offering a spacious, well-equipped working environment including multiple consult rooms, dedicated operating theatres (including dental), separate dog and cat wards and colleague rest space and office areas
Clinically, you'll have access to excellent kit, including advanced imaging, dental equipment, and orthopaedic facilities and the team manages a wide range of cases, from routine consults through to more complex soft tissue and orthopaedic procedures, most of which are done in-house.
There's also a clear appetite to continue evolving clinically, with plans to introduce laparoscopic procedures in the near future.
Vets at different stages of their career are welcome — the practice is used to supporting growth.
