Overview Veterinary Surgeon - Greater Manchester Join a long-established, family-owned small animal practice with nearly 50 years of trusted service across two locations. Work in a truly independent, animal-first environment - no upselling, no targets, and no corporate influence. Enjoy a stable and friendly team made up of permanent staff - many of whom have been with the practice for decades and long standing locums. Work a genuine 9am-5pm schedule, Monday to Friday only, with no weekends, no evenings, and no out-of-hours. Earn up to £70,000 per annum DOE, with a package that includes pension, CPD allowance, and subsidised treatment for staff pets. This is a unique opportunity to join a proudly traditional, community-focused veterinary practice where animal welfare comes first - and always has. Founded by the current owner nearly five decades ago, this practice remains rooted in its original mission: to provide accessible, compassionate care without pressure to generate profit. With two modest but well-equipped branches, the practice is perfect for a vet who wants to get stuck into meaningful first-opinion work, supported by a tight-knit and loyal team. The facilities include ultrasound, digital X-ray, Idexx machines, two consulting rooms at each site, a reception area, and an ops theatre. You'll be working alongside a team of 4 vets (a mix of locum and permanent), as well as experienced nursing staff - many of whom have been with the practice since its earliest days. The rota includes a mix of consulting and surgery, with vets swapping between the two throughout the day. This role would suit an experienced vet (ideally 3+ years) who is confident with routine procedures and enjoys being part of a relaxed, informal, but busy environment. If you're looking for somewhere with genuine values, stability, and strong community ties - this could be the ideal fit.
