Veterinary Surgeon – Essex
Job description
This is a standout opportunity for a Veterinary Surgeon who wants top-end pay without top-end burnout . A 4-day working week , a fair 1 in 4 weekend rota , and a salary that genuinely reflects experience — all wrapped up in a well-run, sensible practice.
Location: Essex
Salary: Up to £70,000 (DOE)
Working pattern: 4 days per week
Weekends: 1 in 4
The Role
You'll be joining a supportive first-opinion practice with a loyal client base and a manageable caseload. The focus here is on quality medicine, realistic consult times, and teamwork — not rushing from one case to the next.
This role suits a vet who wants to enjoy their clinical work and their time off.
What You'll Be Doing
•
First-opinion consultations and routine surgery
•
Managing medical cases with confidence and care
•
Working closely with experienced RVNs and support staff
•
Building strong, long-term client relationships
•
Maintaining excellent clinical and professional standards
What Were Looking For
•
RCVS-registered Veterinary Surgeon
•
Confident in first-opinion practice
•
Team-focused with a calm, professional approach
•
Someone who values balance as much as clinical quality
Why This Role Stands Out
•
Salary up to £70k — no vague up to games
•
4-day working week — more life, less burnout
•
Fair 1 in 4 weekend rota
•
Permanent, secure position
•
Supportive, well-organised practice culture
