Offer description

Salary up to £75,000 DOE, up to £8,000 Relocation Allowance plus up to £10,000 Welcome Bonus

Here at Straid Vets, we are looking for a Veterinary Surgeon to join our established and supportive team. There will be a mix of consulting and operating, and we try to make sure all vets have equal time in theatre. We encourage innovation and initiative, so if you have a keen interest, we are keen to try and make it happen! We are a small practice and would like to offer more services.


Let us support the next step in your career

If you are looking to pursue a certificate, we can support you in achieving that. Are you unhappy with the amount of surgery you are getting in your current role? We can help and discuss a workload that works for you. Are your current rota patterns not working for you? We can discuss hours that suit you and your life and see if we can make it work.

We will endeavour to support your interests and even join you on your journey, whatever your career goal may be. We are a welcoming team that has our people at the heart of what we do, maintaining important, long-term friendships.


Rota patterns that work for you

Our people are at the heart of everything that we do, that’s why we know that work-life balance is vital in supporting our people to be their best selves. Our flexible approach to rota patterns and working hours offers a balance that truly flexes with you and your lifestyle, no matter what stage you are in your career.

We are open to flexible working across 4 or 5 days. The weekend rota is usually 1 in 4 working Saturday 8am - 12:30pm, and weekends can be swapped if needed. There are no out-of-hours.


Want to know more about us?

We currently have 4 Vets, 4 Nurses/Animal Care Assistants, and 4 receptionists.

We are a small practice in the heart of Beaconsfield that prides ourselves on our community feel and ethos. We have been open for 100 years and have many loyal clients, as well as staff members. We have a family-like approach to our team and like to build strong working relationships and friendships.

Beaconsfield is a buzzing town with many shops, cafes, and bars/restaurants. We have the advantage of being close to London and other nearby towns, but also the countryside is on our doorstep! The train station has direct, fast links to London.

The practice has 3 consultation rooms, 1 prep/dental area with dental X-ray, 1 theatre, 1 x-ray room, ultrasound, in-house laboratory, and separate dog and cat wards.

As well as routine surgery, we perform orthopaedic and some more advanced soft tissue surgery.

We promote clinical freedom as well as innovation and are keen for more services to be offered in-house - we are happy to discuss any interest in a certificate, etc.
