Role
Veterinary Surgeon

Here at Fivelands Veterinary Centre, we're excited to be recruiting for a new vet to join our friendly and experienced team based in the vibrant village of Moseley, Birmingham. You'll primarily be based at our main surgery in Moseley, with some consulting at one of our branch practices. The role will offer a well balanced caseload between medicine & surgery, and we can tailor the caseload to your own clinical interests as best we can.

There are no out-of-hours requirements, and Saturdays are shared on a 1 in 4 basis with time off in lieu.
