Are you a confident veterinary surgeon looking to take the next step in your career—without jumping straight into a Clinical Director role?
At Axe Valley Vets, we’re offering an exciting opportunity for a talented vet to take the lead at our newly refurbished Weston Branch (BS23 3EF). If you're ready for increased responsibility, leadership opportunities, and a chance to shape the future of a thriving branch while keeping your clinical focus - this is the role for you.
As the Weston Branch Lead, you’ll play a key role in the daily clinical operations and ongoing development of the branch while remaining hands-on with your veterinary work.
Part of a larger network
Axe Valley Vets is proud to be part of the IVC Evidensia network. While we operate with autonomy, we benefit from the support of a wider veterinary group. This gives our team access to shared clinical expertise, advanced equipment, and a collaborative network of professionals - all while maintaining the freedom to make the right decisions for our patients locally.
Supportive Team & Newly Refurbished Site
The previous owners are still very much involved, and our focus remains firmly on clinical excellence and team wellbeing. With a diverse team of 10 vets, including new graduates, certificate holders, and experienced GPs we foster a supportive, collaborative environment where learning never stops.
Our Weston branch has recently been refurbished and is fully equipped with everything you need: an operating theatre, lab (biochemistry and haematology), digital X-ray, ultrasound, and dental suite. You’ll have the autonomy to work up your cases with the backup of a brilliant and experienced wider team across our hub.
Our Rota
This is a full-time position, ideally 40 hours over four days. With three days at Weston and one at the main Blackford branch. However, we're open to flexible arrangements for the right candidate.
