Job description
Interim Managing Director – Veterinary Sector
(Part-Time, Remote, 6-Month Contract)

  • Location: Home-based with regular travel across the North of England (West Yorkshire, Lancashire, Greater Manchester, North Yorkshire, County Durham)
  • Employment Type: Interim (6 months) | Approx. 14 hours per week | Employed or Consultancy Basis
We are recruiting on behalf of a well-established business operating within the veterinary sector for an experienced Interim Managing Director to join on a 6-month part-time contract. The role involves providing day-to-day leadership and strategic direction to a small, dedicated team delivering specialist services to veterinary practices.

About the Business:
This is a clinician-led business with a strong reputation for providing high-quality, responsive, and pragmatic support to veterinary professionals. With no physical premises, the team works remotely and travels to client sites across the region. The company places high value on team wellbeing, quality of service, and long-term sustainability.

The Role:
Reporting to the Board of Directors (via the Chair), the Interim Managing Director will oversee the effective running of the business, support the team, and ensure alignment with the company’s goals and values. This flexible, part-time role (approx. 14 hours per week) suits someone with strong leadership and operational management experience, particularly within veterinary, healthcare, or service-based sectors.

You’ll be primarily home-based, with regular travel for team meetings and on-site engagement across the North of England.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Provide day-to-day leadership and line management for all team members
  • Oversee staffing matters including recruitment, retention, and performance (with support from an external HR provider)
  • Support the team to stay aligned with strategic objectives and company values
  • Monitor financial performance and liaise with the finance manager and accountants
  • Prepare and present regular updates and reports to the Board
  • Oversee core operational functions, including health & safety and IT support (external providers in place)
  • Support logistics and ensure effective coordination of services
  • Work closely with the Chair and Board to implement business plans, budgets, and reporting frameworks
  • Maintain organisational structure and support clear communication across the team
Some aspects of the role may be delegated to the wider team, depending on your background and availability:
  • Marketing, brand awareness, and client engagement
  • Oversight of equipment sourcing and servicing

ABOUT YOU
  • Previous experience in a senior leadership or operational role
  • Strong people management and team-building skills
  • Financial awareness and the ability to work within budgets and strategic plans
  • A practical, hands-on approach combined with clear, values-led decision making
  • Familiarity with remote team management and flexible working environments
You may be a seasoned MD, COO, or Senior Practice Manager looking for an interim opportunity.

Terms & Flexibility
  • Duration: 6-month interim contract
  • Working hours: Flexible – approx. 14 hours per week
  • Location: Remote/home-based, with regular travel across the North of England
  • Engagement: Employed, freelance, or consultancy – open to discussion
How to Apply
If you’re interested in supporting a values-led veterinary business through a period of transition, we’d love to hear from you. Please apply with your CV and a short covering message where possible outlining your availability and relevant experience.
