I'm also IT literate, good with customers have a sense of humour and a car with a full clean driving licence. I''m also used to handling large sums of money and using a till for both cash and card transactions as well as taking phone calls and dealing with enquiries. I can provide numerous professional animal related references if required. I would be interested in working in either large, small or exotic animal practice, as I have experience in the care and husbandry of all three. Please get in touch if you're interested.

Experienced vet required to consult at our very friendly and busiest branch and to operate at our hospital in North Somerset.

An interest in surgery, especially laparoscopy, would be an advantage but enthusiasm and willingness to develop surgical skills would be a good substitute. This position is not suitable for a new graduate however - at least 3 years experience in small animal practice would be needed to handle the caseload we see. We need someone interested in a permanent post where they can develop good long term client relationships and really move their career on in what we believe to be a unique working environment. We do our own out of hours (1 in 5) but as the nurses answer the phones this is rarely onerous. If you think you can rise to this challenge please ring or email for details

I am now looking urgently for a short term position in a Vets near to Fakenham up 30 minutes drive to cover the gap I will have until the baby is ready to be born. I don''t expect any benefits from the employer I just need a job to continue to pay my bills, rent and save for my pregnancy. I have worked in my current role for 4 years.

Trainee Veterinary Nurse Position Co.Durham/Newcastle
Category: Job Wanted
Submitted: 12 September 2011
I am a 25 year old Law graduate who has overcome allergies and hopes to let my heart rule my career. As an only child I grew up surrounded by pets but I would often suffer for lavishing them with attention by sneezing and wheezing. My persistence paid off as now I can freely handle all animals with no problems. Every Thursday I attend a local veterinary practice where I observe consultations, theatre preparations and the operations themselves, and my main responsibility is to clean the surgical instruments and prepare the kits as well as helping with the general cleaning of the theatres and individual wards. I did doubt my ability to cope with the euthanasia of animals but whilst it is a sad time, I do not feel it holds me back from being able to assist the practice to the best of my ability and I am often praised by the nurses for my hard work. Recently I was heavily relied on due to staff shortages and it was said the day would have been chaotic if not for me ploughing through the tasks and freeing up the few nurses to provide the medical assistance. I am also a volunteer home visitor for the RSPCA in addition to spending a great deal of time caring for my own 10 pets. I have also acquired a selection of veterinary nursing textbooks in order to give myself a head start and an understanding of what is expected of me. My intention it to start my studies next November and in the meantime I aim to accumulate as much experience as possible and complete any available courses. Of particular interest to me at present a Pet Bereavement Support course and an Animal First Aid course. While I have lost many pets over the years, they were natural deaths, and having to have my cat euthanised last July raised many questions and feelings of guilt which I feel many owners must struggle with. I have a flexible attitude to working hours and have no issue working weekends, evenings or being on call. I am a hard worker who loves animals and I appreciate any opportunity offered.

Have You Dreamed Of Running Your Own Practice?
Category: Job Vacancy
Submitted: 29 August 2011
"I can't open my own practice, I just don't have the funds" Have you ever said this to yourself? Do you dream of running your own practice? If you have answered yes, there is still a way to own you own business. How? We are working with a major player in the Veterinary Profession who are the leaders in the field and have the best reputation for their Joint Venture Partnerships. How does Joint Venture Work? Joint Venture is a very simple principle which gives Veterinary Surgeons or Veterinary Nurses who may not have the capital to start up on their own a step onto the ownership ladder. Initially this will require some investment, but nowhere near the amount if you went it alone. You would not have to be responsible for negotiating or paying business loans as this will be done for you. You would only be responsible for the management fees which are a percentage of your turnover. All profit generated by the business is yours to keep and there are some extremely large profits to be made. Surely the business won't turnover any profit for a few years? That is correct. You may not see a profit for perhaps 5 years. This is why you will be guaranteed a salary as well of between £35k - £38k What experience do I need? All we ask is that you have at least 3 years UK experience and are able to satisfy the level of aptitude that we are looking for. Where will the practice be? Some sites have already been purchased and we can let you know if any of those will be suitable for you. Alternatively, you could propose a location which will be researched and if suitable, a site may be purchased. This is all paid for you with the business loan which has been arranged. How long does it take? If there is a site or practice available, it may only take a few months. However, for brand new sites, the process can take up to 18 months. I'm interested, what shall I do? In the first instance, you can call Stuart on 0845 4751187 or 07789 770822 and have an informal chat, or you could email at stuart.posner@vetrecruiters.co.uk

Volunteer in Nepal with a Street Dog Welfare Organisation!
Category: Job Vacancy
Submitted: 18 July 2011
The Kathmandu Animal Treatment Centre (KAT Centre, www.katcentre.org.np) in Kathmandu, Nepal is seeking volunteer veterinarians, vet nurses, and vet students to work with our two vets and six animal care staff to provide treatment for street dogs and cats. ABOUT THE KAT CENTRE More than 20,000 dogs live on the streets of the city of Kathmandu, Nepal. Many suffer from starvation, infected open sores, mange, and rabies. The KAT Centre's goals are to humanely create a healthy, stable dog population in Kathmandu and to eliminate rabies, which kills hundreds of people in Nepal every year. We are accomplishing this through a widespread street dog sterilisation programme, medical treatment for sick and injured dogs, vaccinations, and humane education. In the seven years since the KAT Centre was founded, we have sterilised over 40% of the female street dogs in Kathmandu, the canine population has decreased from approximately 31,000 to 22,500, and surveys show that people are more compassionate towards street dogs. The organisation's impact goes far beyond the animals it treats. VOLUNTEERING AT THE KAT CENTRE As a volunteer at KAT, you will have opportunities to learn different approaches to veterinary medicine and help treat illnesses and injuries that are uncommon in developed countries. You will also be able to ride on KAT's animal ambulances with staff who catch and release street dogs and respond to emergency rescue calls. Additionally, we hope you will share your knowledge and experience with our vets and other staff to help make sustained improvements to our procedures. We welcome volunteers for any amount of time, and no particular experience is necessary. Please come to the KAT Centre willing to adapt to the unpredictability of life in Nepal and the limited resources available. Since we don't have a structured volunteer program, we encourage volunteers to take initiative to ask the staff how they can get involved. Learn more about volunteering at the Kathmandu Animal Treatment Centre at http://katcentre.org.np/volunteer/index.html. KATinfo@KATCentre.org.np +977 1 4373169 www.KATCentre.org.np

Submitted: 06 July 2011
Our client, a well established small animal practice with an excellent reputation is looking for an experienced vet to join their team on a permanent full time basis. If you are a GP vet who likes to consult and would be capable of performing routine, small animal surgery if required with experience in working OOH, we would love to hear from you. Ideally you will be a vet who has worked the majority of your time in SA, however, if you are a mixed practitioner with a bit of SA experience, this too is acceptable. The role has a general medicine bias as opposed to surgically oriented and so a keen interest and proficiency in this area would be preferred. The successful candidate will be working at two to three branches daily (all within a reasonable commuting distance from each other, but you will need a vehicle). You will be working 8am - 8pm with a weekday off in lieu. Night and weekend duties are shared between 10 vets but the rota invariably means you will have a weeknight 1 in 3 and part of a weekend 1 in 5. Weekends are split into Friday night through to Sunday morning and Sunday morning through to Monday morning with each part having a day off either before or after as compensation. The branch surgeries are supported by a hospital which is a resource of the practice providing outstanding expert veterinary and nursing care and featuring some of the most advanced equipment available that caters for various specialist disciplines including orthopaedics, internal medicine and ophthalmology to name a few and there may be scope for exposure to this area of the practice if so desired. CPD will be fully encouraged and a very competitive salary package (an attractive basic salary plus accommodation & vehicle allowance) is available for the right candidate.

Veterinary Volunteer Work, UK
Category: Job Wanted
Submitted: 23 January 2011
Hello, My name is George and I'm from a small town from Romania. I'm 33 years old, married and I am the father of a 4 years old son. I've graduated the veterinary school of medicine in 2008 in Bucharest, and because in my little town there are no Veterinary clinics, I can't practice in here. For this reason I decided to come to the UK and practice this beautiful job there. From 10 December 2010 I'm a new member of RCVS (number 6608885). My second passion after the love for animals is the computers. I consider this as a plus for me because I have very good knowledge of Windows, Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook), graphic design applications, and acquaintance with Internet, networking, web design, and lots of other software. My native language is Romanian, but I am also fluent in Hungarian (writing, reading, speaking and understanding) and I have a very good level in English (very good understanding, good reading, medium speaking and medium writing). I am aware that I don't have the usually required employment experience as a veterinarian and this is why I would like to be accepted into a Veterinary Clinic or in a Vet hospital as a assistant or volunteer, without any financial obligation, maybe with the possibility of accommodation only. I am sure that it is really important for me to gain some minimal experience in UK and I hope that, by volunteering would give me a good start for a successful activity afterward. I am available for you in any moment for any specific details.
