Cardiologist Jobs in United Kingdom

Braintree Vets for Pets are looking for a Vet to join their friendly, experienced, and supportive team on a full or part time basis.

About us

Attention to detail and providing high quality care is what we’re about and one thing our current team and locums often comment on is our organisation- we work well together. We aim to provide a working environment where everyone can work to their potential and utilise all the skills they bring to the team. We’re also open to change and welcome input from our team to make sure we’re doing things in the best way possible. Close communication between our JVP and Lead Vet Samantha, Head RVN, and Practice Manager means that if you raise an idea, we’ll listen.

We are an in-store practice located on a retail park and have a separate branch in nearby Maldon run by the same JVP. Whilst the two practices operate separately day to day, we do work together to ensure consistent clinical governance and level of care.

Being based on a retail park has lots of advantages- as well as great amenities we are close to a designer outlet and plenty of eateries meaning there are lots of options for getting out of the practice at lunch. Braintree itself is based in Essex and is a market town that offers a great balance between beautiful rolling countryside and city life. Food markets, vineyards, breweries, cafés, and a castle complete with jousting nights are just some of what our area has to offer. Our location also makes us well connected transport wise being just 1 hour from London by train and having 2 airports within a 40-minute drive and a ferry port on our coast.

About you

This position would suit a Vet confident with routine consults and presentations looking to take on a new challenge. We will support CPD in any clinical area you are interested in and, anyone with aspirations to take on a more leadership focused role or looking to mentor others. Our caseload presents the great variety you would expect from general practice and our new Vet would get good exposure to surgeries. We also welcome peri-paretic orthopaedic and soft tissue surgeons for our more complex cases as well as a cardiologist who are happy to support our team should they have an interest in their area of specialism.

Our standard consults are 15 minutes, and these are extended for emergencies and certain presentations as we like to give our Vets the time to work up cases as they require. Attention to detail and excellent levels of client care are important to us. We also book administration time in and have additional ‘on the day’ appointments factored into our diary every day. This allows enough flexibility in our diary to allow us to accommodate for the ‘unknowns’ of practice.

This is a full-time role but we are also happy to speak to anyone looking for part-time hours or a job-share type arrangement. Our weekend rota is 1 in 4 and this is the only sole charge you would be required to work. Full time includes working 4 days / week and while we would prefer someone who can work full days are happy to discuss any other working patterns at interview. Our Vet who is sadly leaving to return to Italy has been working 2 weeks on, then 2 weeks off to allow them to return home and we are open to discussion around working patterns if this is what you are looking for if you can cover 1 in 4 weekends for us.
