We are looking for an additional 100% farm-animal vet to join our clinical vet team working in the beautiful Herefordshire countryside. We are dedicated large animal practice with an even mix of dairy, beef, sheep and goat clients. Herefordshire and the surrounding counties have a wide range of livestock farm types. We have a thriving Beef and Sheep sector with upland herds and flocks in the Black Mountains to some of the most prestigious lowland pedigree flocks of Texels, Limousins and Herefords in the UK. We are lucky to work with some large commercial suckler herds and a broad spectrum of beef systems. We are particularly lucky with our calf rearing farms and we have many proactive units. Our area also has many dairy goat herds and we are very active on these farms in routine and preventative roles. There are also our core dairy herds from block calving, extensive herds to 45 litre/day robot systems. Herefordshire really has it all!
The role would be for an enthusiastic mixed ruminant livestock practitioner with an interest in herd and flock health to help us maintain a high level of service in a growing caseload. We employ TB testing vets so your workload will be almost entirely clinical. New graduates and experienced clinicians are all welcome to apply.
We work a 1:4 rota with days off in lieu with a very competitive package and the chance to work and develop within a well supported, progressive and proactive team in a mixed livestock area. We have people working towards certificates in the team, a DBR holder and we actively encourage further qualifications and personal development.
