Unlock your passions at de Montfort Veterinary Hospital
Our practice is situated on the edge of the beautiful Cotswolds offering endless opportunities to explore the great outdoors. Evesham is a really quaint, historic market town with a range of local shops and numerous events taking place throughout the year. If London is more your shopping venue of choice, there is a fast train direct to London too.
We are a friendly team of 2 FTE Vets (1 part time Vet, 3 zero hour Vets) and 12 RVNs - you will be assured of a very warm welcome here at our hospital. We have an experienced nursing team who are always on hand to assist you as you learn to deal with the broad range of cases a hospital attracts. It is also very rewarding to be involved in the care of inpatients - we are the only IVC hospital in the area!
We have all of the toys here that you would expect a hospital to have! We also have 2 certificate holders in Medicine and Radiology, so opportunity to learn so much from your colleagues.
Step into a supportive start
Your normal hours of work are 40 hours per week, 4 days a week. Due to the particular needs of the business we need to operate a rota system, therefore there are no normal times of work applicable to you and your daily hours, start and finish times will vary from time to time on a rota system. The rota operates Monday to Friday inclusive. In addition, you may also be required to participate in a weekend rota and/or an out of hour.
We have a very experienced Clinical Director who will guide you through your graduate program. We are 1st opinion, but do see a varied caseload, which you will have opportunity to be fully involved with throughout their course of treatment, whether this be surgery here onsite or a full work up for referral. We are very used to having graduates here at the hospital so know how to support you along the way!
