1 in 4 weekend rota, 9am to 1pm only, no on-call duties.
You'll deliver clinical nursing care in a full-time permanent position with a refreshingly balanced 1:4 weekend rota (9am to 1pm only, no on-call). Set in a beautiful rural location with genuine community spirit, the practice sits within easy reach of the coast and excellent train links, with onsite parking and neighbouring tea shop, boutique stores, and a pub.
This is a rare opportunity to work within a multi-disciplinary team that truly values exotic veterinary medicine.

The Lead Exotics Vet holds a CertZooMedicine Advanced Practitioner qualification and is passionate about teaching and developing the exotics knowledge of the nursing team.
The practice prides itself on its warm, family-like atmosphere and genuinely supportive team culture. Staff are recognised as the heart of the business, with clear investment in wellbeing, professional development, and work-life balance.
