We are seeking an experienced ambulatory senior vet to join our team at Endell Equine Hospital, Salisbury.
The role is intended for an experienced ambulatory equine vet, who is looking for the next step in their career to take on more management responsibilities. The senior vet role is a new one within the CVS framework to support career progression of equine vets. It has typically been an internal-only promotion, but for the first time we are open to hiring directly into the role. There is potential for further progression for the right person.
The senior vet at Endell will work alongside the other managers (CD, PM and head nurse) at the hospital, with their primary role being leading and managing the ambulatory team and ambulatory services provided.
Endell Equine Hospital is a well-established tier 3 hospital providing care to the horses in the Wiltshire, Hampshire and Dorset areas. We strive to perform the best equine medicine possible and our ambulatory team have access to the exceptional hospital facilities and equipment to achieve this.
Our team consists of 7 ambulatory vets, 1 specialist surgeon, 1 internal medicine specialist, 2 hospital interns, 4 clinical nurses, 3 grooms and numerous support staff. All of our ambulatory vets have their own complementary skills and interests (e.g. surgery, sports medicine, stud work, internal medicine etc.) and where possible the caseload will be moulded around the applicant's interests. A fully stocked fleet car will be provided for all work activities.
