A well-established first opinion practice in the heart of Newcastle-under-Lyme is looking to welcome a small animal vet to their friendly and supportive team.

Located just off the M6, Newcastle-under-Lyme offers the charm of a market town with plenty of local amenities, food spots, and green space — plus a sociable team who enjoy getting together outside of work.

  • £1,750 CPD allowance (more for cert holders)
  • Funded certificates encouraged and supported
