Our client is looking for a passionate, forward thinking equine vet to join their friendly team in Aberdeen.

The clinic is based on the picturesque north east coast of Scotland and has been serving the local community for a number of years and has built long standing relationships with clients across the area.  There are purpose-built premises including 7 stables, trot ups, a sand school, a treatment room, stocks, a knockdown box and a theatre.  They have an excellent range of modern equipment, including portable DR radiography, ultrasound, shockwave, lasers, and video endoscope/gastroscope.  Collaboration is key and the friendly team of 7 equine vets, 3 equine nursing assistants and 4 office staff offers the support needed to grow and learn.  They like to try new things and have regular team meetings where they encourage you to share your ideas.  There are a diverse team including certificate holders who can support you with your cases.

Nature enthusiasts will delight in Aberdeenshire’s stunning surroundings, with rugged coastline, pristine beaches, and rolling hills just waiting to be explored. Take a leisurely stroll along the golden sands of Balmedie Beach, or venture into the hills for a peaceful retreat. Aberdeen City is a hub of cultural diversity boasting many galleries, theatres, and museums to immerse yourself in. There is also a wealth of lovely restaurants, shopping centres and an active nightlife.

The role covers a wide range of duties including, but not limited to, thorough physical examinations and diagnostic evaluations, developing and implementing comprehensive treatment plans for horses with a variety of conditions, routine procedures such as vaccinations, dental care, and ambulatory calls, and emergency and after-hours care as needed.
