The role
We’re looking for an Experienced Small Animal Vet to join our independent practice in Dunfermline. Due to our ever expanding client base we are looking for a new member of the team. You’ll see a genuinely varied caseload, with time to work cases up properly. We’re well-equipped and purpose built 4 years ago:
Ultrasound
Digital X-ray
In-house lab
Endoscopy
And you’ll have:
Proper consult time – 20 minutes as standard
Dedicated surgery time – set op days
A strong, supportive nursing team
There is a contribution to OOH — but it’s structured, fair, and you get proper time off afterwards. Who you’ll be working with A team where:
No one pulls rank
Nurses, vets, and reception genuinely work together
People help each other without being asked
You can ask questions (or offer ideas) without hesitation
No egos. No politics. Just a good team. Who this would suit You might be:
A vet with a few years’ experience who wants to feel settled and supported
Someone who enjoys both medicine and surgery
A vet who wants to keep improving (we’ll support certificates)
This role isn’t suitable for new graduates — not because we don’t value them (we do), but because we want to make sure everyone gets the right level of support. What you’ll get (beyond the obvious) Yes, there’s:
£60,000+ salary (FTE)
CPD + certificate support
Paid RCVS & VDS
Private health insurance
Pension, holidays, all the usual
But more importantly:
You’ll be listened to
You’ll be supported
You’ll feel part of something
And that makes a bigger difference than most job specs admit. Why we’re different We’re independent — which means:
We can actually change things when they need changing
Your ideas don’t disappear into a system
People come before processes
You’re not just filling a gap on a rota here. If this sounds like your kind of place… Send your CV to:
hannah@3bridgesvets.co.uk Or just get in touch for a chat — no pressure, no formalities. One last thing Most practices will tell you they’re “supportive” and have a “great team.” We’d rather you come and see it for yourself.
