Imagine being part of an extraordinary team within a premier, Tier 3 RCVS accredited hospital located in the heart of West Yorkshire. Here, clinical excellence seamlessly blends with compassionate care in a bustling 24/7 veterinary hospital, supported by four branch clinics. This is not just a workplace; it's a beacon of quality and dedication in the veterinary field.

In taking on this role you join a large, welcoming team that values your professional growth while ensuring that fun is part of your daily routine.
 Collaboration and knowledge sharing are at the heart of the practice, so you will be invited to regular vet meetings and M&M rounds, fostering open discussions on clinical cases to enhance the quality of care provided. The hospital's dedication to sustainability has also been recognised with the Investors in the Environment Bronze award, reflecting their forward-thinking approach to veterinary practice.

Our clients are offering you an incredible opportunity to tailor this role around your clinical interests allowing you to develop your skills and seek support and mentoring in your areas of interest.

The practice itself boasts state-of-the-art facilities, including a full imaging suite with X-ray, multiple ultrasound scanners, onsite CT, and visiting MRI all at your fingertips. Four theatres, a dedicated surgical nursing team, and a certificate holder-led service to ensure the highest standards of patient care. If that weren’t enough, the hospital also boasts a dental suite with X-ray, endoscopy capabilities, and exceptional inpatient facilities, including separate wards for different species and an onsite lab with a dedicated technician.
