Starling Equine Vets are looking for an equine vet to join our new, growing independent ambulatory equine practice based just outside of Ipswich in Suffolk. We focus on providing the best “Team centric” care for both the client & patient, and achieve that by providing a happy, close-knit team. We have a wonderful group of trusted partners; osteopaths, physiotherapists, farriers and trainers, who we love to work closely with, to offer a truly bespoke, caring service and improving patient outcomes. As a practice we will always be kind, approachable, and listen to the client and horse and we will always try our hardest for both throughout our journey together. Our successful candidate will share these values.
We are open to nurturing any particular interests, although as it stands the practice has a bias towards lameness, poor performance and rehabilitation. You can lean into this, or we can help you to forge your own path. For the right candidate there are lots of opportunities for career progression in whatever direction you’d like. You will have great new kit, a nice vehicle (with fully fitted out drawers) and be in a pretty area of the country, with lots of lovely clients.
We invite both full and part time applicants and are supportive of working parents (we love small people!). We offer enhanced holiday (28 days plus bank holidays pro rata) and can help you find accommodation and livery. Full time role is 40 hours over 4 days a week plus equal share of the out of hours rota (we use equicomms so no extra phone/pager to carry around and lone working support), with time off in leu offered for weekends worked. Salary is commensurate to experience (£32-£56,000 per annum) with RCVS and BEVA memberships paid, 5 days paid sick leave, and generous CPD budget. If you would like to hear more, please contact us on 07502338144 or 01473 970393 or email office@starlingequinevets.co.uk all enquires will be treated as confidential.
