Veterinary Surgeon - Surgical Interest | Norfolk/Suffolk Coast | Up to £70,000
£45k - £70k per annumFull-time
RCVS hospital, 4 theatres, full ortho kit, radioactive iodine referral service & certificate support — surgical-focused role on the Norfolk coast.
Who They Are
This is an RCVS-accredited veterinary hospital operating across two sites on the Norfolk/Suffolk coast, set within the stunning surroundings of the Norfolk Broads — with a reasonable commute to London for those who want the best of both worlds. With a wide and varied caseload, exceptional facilities, and a 24-hour on-site out-of-hours service provided by an established overnight care provider, this is a practice built for serious clinical work.
The practice runs a radioactive iodine referral service, accepting referrals from across the wider region — a genuinely rare offering that speaks to the clinical ambition and scope of what is available here. A visiting cardiologist provides additional specialist support, and the breadth of equipment on-site is exceptional for a practice of this type.
This is a stable, well-resourced practice with the infrastructure, caseload, and clinical culture to support a vet with a genuine passion for surgery to thrive and grow.
What You'll Do
- Manage a wide and varied surgical and consulting caseload across two sites, with two dedicated full operating days per week
- Perform a broad range of surgical procedures utilising four fully equipped theatres, full orthopaedic kit including TPLO and TTA plates, and lap spay kit
- Conduct diagnostics using DR X-ray, ultrasound, echocardiography, video-assisted bronchoscopy and endoscopy, and a fully equipped on-site laboratory including endocrine testing
- Deliver advanced patient care using on-site EPOC, lactate monitoring, blood and plasma storage facilities, and an Elixir kit for toxicology emergencies
- Support and contribute to the radioactive iodine referral service, working alongside regional referral cases
- Collaborate with a visiting cardiologist and wider clinical team to deliver high standards of patient care
- Deliver care aligned with RCVS best practice guidelines, with a focus on patient safety, pain management, and evidence-based medicine
- Communicate treatment plans clearly with clients and referring practices, ensuring continuity and quality of care
What You'll Gain
- Salary up to £70,000 per annum, depending on experience
- Two full dedicated operating days per week alongside consulting days — structured to build surgical confidence and capability
- Full support to study towards a certificate, with external and internal CPD tailored to individual needs
- Clinical support from experienced colleagues across both sites
- Exposure to a genuinely diverse and complex caseload including orthopaedics, soft tissue surgery, cardiology, endoscopy, toxicology, and radioactive iodine referral work
- Flexible working opportunities with a genuine commitment to finding the right fit
- Optional out-of-hours ECC shifts available for those with an interest in emergency and critical care
- Structured rota: 1 in 4 Saturday mornings, with weekends, bank holidays, and nights fully covered by the on-site overnight care service
What's Needed
- RCVS registration (essential)
- A demonstrable interest in surgery and a desire to develop surgical skills within a well-equipped, supportive environment
- Competency across first-opinion consulting and surgical procedures
- Ability to work collaboratively within a multi-site clinical team
- Commitment to high clinical standards, patient safety, and evidence-based practice
- Interest in emergency and critical care is advantageous but not essential
