Belmont Farm and Equine Vets is an independently owned, large animal practice covering beautiful Herefordshire and the surrounding counties. We are a collaborative, but species specific, team of farm and equine vets, operating from 3 clinics in a beautiful part of the world. Our clients range from pleasure riders and donkey cuddlers, to professional competition horses with everything in-between.
We pride ourselves on providing our loyal clients with an exemplary first opinion ambulatory service, offering a proactive attitude to working up cases in the field where possible whilst maintaining excellent relationships with local referral services to facilitate hospital work ups when needed.
We empower all of our team to embrace a learning culture, facilitated by running top spec diagnostic equipment including mobile digital radiography, ultrasonography, endoscopy and gastroscopy. We are kept on the road by a team of dedicated support staff who work tirelessly to prioritise case continuity and foster trusted, sustainable relationships between vets, clients and colleagues.
What we need
We are seeking an experienced equine-focused veterinary surgeon to join our team of 6 equine vets to provide maternity cover on a fixed-term contract, starting in January 2026. This is a great opportunity to work in a beautiful part of the world in a supportive, professional environment with great values and an emphasis on facilitating a healthy and sustainable work-life balance.
The post is flexible and whilst a full-time position is preferable, a part time role would be considered, taking an equal share in our 1:5 OOH rota.
What we offer
Pro rata salary commensurate with experience, with a generous holiday allowance. RCVS membership and CPD allowance included. Other benefits include private medical insurance, 6 monthly wellbeing bonus and monthly ‘Treat Fridays’.
