1 in 5 weekend cover required; no out-of-hours or night shifts
You'll be joining Westwood Vets as a first opinion veterinary surgeon on a 12-month fixed-term contract. This is a daytime-only role with no out-of-hours requirements, working a standard 4-day week with 10.5-hour days (8:30am to 6:30pm, though flexible shift patterns can be negotiated). Weekend cover sits at 1 in 5, shared fairly across the team.
The role is based primarily at the Sleaford practice, where you'll work alongside 8 other vets in a warm, professional team environment. You'll handle all general veterinary duties, both medical and surgical, with a strong emphasis on diagnostic work-ups and preventative healthcare. Exceptional communication and customer focus are valued highly here.

Westwood maintains a warm, friendly team culture with an excellent client base and strong focus on clinical excellence.
The practice is well-equipped with digital x-ray, ultrasonography, bronchoscopy, laparoscopy, in-house laboratory, laser therapy, in-house orthopaedic capabilities (including MMP), echocardiograms, ECG, and digital dental x-ray at the Garforth branch.
