Ready to launch your farm animal career with proper mentorship and zero isolation? Capontree Vets is a 3-branch Cumbrian practice seeking a confident new graduate to join a supportive team with 24/7 backup and a structured development programme.
Shared large-animal only on-call rota with dedicated back-up support
You'll join Capontree Vets as a newly qualified veterinary surgeon in a modern, RCVS Tier 2 practice spanning three branches across Cumbria, Northumberland and the Scottish Borders. This farm animal role puts you at the heart of a thriving agricultural community, working with dairy, beef and sheep clients on a large-animal-only on-call rota shared with colleagues. TB testing forms a small part of your workload.
The practice prioritises your development, assigning you a dedicated mentor to ensure you never feel isolated. You'll have 24/7 backup support as you settle in, with the freedom to develop interests in areas that excite you. This is structured graduate training, not a steep learning curve alone.
