Job Description - Lead veterinary surgeon

Medivet Dartford 24hr is looking for a Lead Vet to join the team!

This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced vet ready to take the next step and bring their ideas, leadership and vision to a busy 24-hour hospital. If you’re a confident all-round clinician looking to progress your career, this could be the perfect role. A medical bias would be an advantage, but it isn’t essential.

You’ll be joining a highly experienced team with strong support from the Practice Manager.

The role is full-time, working 4 days per week (40 hours) with a weekend rotation. If this working pattern doesn’t quite suit, we’d still love to hear from you.

Your career means more than a rota and a job title, that’s why we offer:

Health and wellbeing

  • Private Medical Insurance and Health Cash Plan from day one
  • 24/7 counselling and wellbeing support
  • Life Assurance 3 x salary

Annual leave

  • 5 weeks’ annual leave plus Bank Holidays, rising with length of service
  • Extra ‘Day for You’, a paid day off just for you

Learning and development

  • £1,500 CPD allowance plus 3 days’ paid leave per year
  • Access to Clinical Communities, internal CPD and our 24-hour hospitals
  • Funded certificates and internal career pathways

Additional support

  • Lead Vet Contribution Scheme
  • RCVS, VDS and BVA fees paid.
  • Relocation support and Visa sponsorship available
  • Sabbatical options based on length of service

Lifestyle

  • Cycle to Work
  • Season Ticket loans
  • Discounts on Medivet products and services

About you

You’re a qualified MRCVS with a passion for clinical excellence and client care. You want to make a real difference in a practice that values and supports you.

We welcome applications from experienced Vets ready to lead, develop and inspire.

What you’ll be doing

Typically, in this role, you’ll:

  • Deliver exceptional clinical care to patients in consults and surgery to the highest standards of regulatory, practice and operational compliance
  • Develop tailored treatment plans with clients
  • Work collaboratively within a supportive team
  • Share your skills, inspiring others and supporting our Medivet communities’ development

About Medivet

Medivet is a leading Veterinary care provider, with over 400 practices, including 24-hour centres and referral hospitals, across the UK and Europe. We’re more than a network – we’re a community.

We believe in providing the right treatment for our pets and our people. That means giving you the tools, time and support to build the career you want.
