Join a supportive, collaborative small animal team in the heart of the Forest of Dean. No out-of-hours responsibilities, genuine mentoring, and a practice that genuinely values work-life balance.
This is a fantastic opportunity to build confidence and depth in general practice with a strong emphasis on consultations, continuity of care and medical case development. You'll work 32 hours per week split between two locations: Cinderford (70%) and Lydney (30%), with no out-of-hours or on-call responsibilities. The role suits a vet with some post-graduate experience in first-opinion practice.
Cinderford sits in the heart of the Forest of Dean, offering an excellent quality of life with beautiful natural surroundings, strong community feel and affordable housing. You'll benefit from easy access to scenic woodland walks and good transport links to Gloucester and Cheltenham.
