Position Overview & Specifications
How would you like to work for an independent, ‘small animal' practice in the beautiful county of Norfolk?
Rowan House Vets is a brand new, independent practice looking to recruit an Experienced Veterinary Surgeon. Salary starts from £50,000 DOE, based on working a four-day week.
Our team is made up of four vets, eight RVNs, 2 kennel assistants, three receptionists and back-office staff. We support our team working towards certificates in their own special interest – therefore we do not have a limit on a CPD allowance.
We are equipped to offer our patients orthopaedic and dental surgery as well as physio facilities. We have separate cat and dog wards, full Idexx in-house laboratory, IM3 dental x-ray machine, two theatres, an ICU and isolation facilities. A brand-new clinic with its own café!
We understand a work/life balance is important and to demonstrate this we provide overtime for additional hours, time in lieu for Saturdays worked, and NO OOH - our OOH is outsourced. There is also the possibility of partnership. Please read our Google reviews to see what our patient owners think of us and our practice.
If you’re a veterinary surgeon looking to work in a friendly, independent practice in the heart of South Norfolk, just 10 minutes from the city of Norwich – and would like more information, please contact our practice manager on admin@rowanhousevets.co.uk. We’re also very happy to arrange for you to speak with one of the vets currently working with us.
