6.6 weeks annual leave including bank holidays

CPD

You will have up to £2,000 annually available for CPD and up to five paid days leave every year for attending courses.

Certificate courses are encouraged.

For all CPD involving travel in the UK, we will reimburse reasonably priced accommodation and fares.

Private Medical Insurance

We want our vets to be able to receive eligible private medical treatment quickly and with the minimum of disruption to day-to-day routines. Our Bupa private medical health plan offers peace of mind allowing you to avoid NHS queues. The cover is for individuals but vets will be able to register their families at discounted rates.

Membership Allowance Scheme

Your RCVS membership will be paid annually and we are keen that our vets interact as much as possible with colleagues across the profession with access to online CPD and educational journals. Therefore, we offer £350 annually for subscription to membership of key organisations such as BSAVA, BVA and SPVS.

Our vets are covered by the practice’s membership of the Veterinary Defence Society (VDS) for claims involving allegations of negligence.

Medical Cash Back Plan

Our vets can be reimbursed, up to policy limits, for day-to-day health treatments. Cash sums are paid to help with the cost of personal health needs involving consultations, diagnostic tests, prescription costs, dental treatments, optical costs, physiotherapy, osteopathy, chiropractic and chiropody.
