Seeking a part-time vet who values work-life balance? Join a supportive 8-vet team in beautiful North Devon with no after-hours calls and sustainable consulting blocks.
1:8 Saturday morning rota, 1:8 daytime weekend cover. No out-of-hours calls after 7pm.
This part-time opportunity offers a minimum of 2 days per week at a well-established practice in Northam, Devon, created to fill a long-term vacancy. You'll enjoy excellent work-life balance with a fair distribution of consultations and surgical procedures across the team, plus a sustainable workload that respects your time.
The role spans two locations: the main practice in Northam and a smaller consult-only branch in East-the-Water, just 10 minutes away. Located five minutes from a stunning Blue Flag beach and surrounded by Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this is an ideal setting for someone seeking both a fulfilling veterinary career and an exceptional lifestyle.
Weekend cover is shared across the team on a 1:8 rota for Saturday mornings and daytime weekend shifts. Importantly, there are no out-of-hours calls after 7pm, allowing you to genuinely switch off in the evenings.
The practice prioritises sustainable workloads with maximum 2-hour consulting blocks, dedicated daily administration time, a full 1-hour lunch break, and the last routine consultation at 5:45pm. Modern diagnostic and surgical facilities include dental radiography and laparoscopy. One RVN holds an exotics certificate, reflecting the varied caseload the team handles.
