Description

Posted on 01/08/2023


Help shape the future of Emergency and Critical Care:

Blaise Veterinary Referral Centre will be a large-scale, multi-disciplinary, specialist-led referral hospital which encompasses the culture and values we pride ourselves on at IVC Evidensia.

Blaise will add to our extensive referral network, which now consists of over 100 referral sites across the UK & Ireland.

In addition to our referral teams on site, the 24-hour hospital will be home to our Vets Now at Blaise emergency service.

In partnership with Vets Now, the UK's leading provider of emergency pet care, our out-of-hours team will be here to provide an emergency service to local first opinion practices at nights, weekends and bank holidays, and to also ensure continuity of care for inpatients that have been seen by our referral team.

Be Part of an Exceptional Team:

You will be working alongside an experienced team of Vets, Nurses and Animal Care Assistants in our new state of the art hospital.

As well as being responsible for new emergencies coming in to the hospital, you will work closely with our specialist ECC team on stabilising and monitoring complex cases in the ICU.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who thrives on the variation and pace of an emergency caseload.


Start the rewarding career you deserve:
We bring people together to make animal care better. We are building the world's best veterinary group with a single purpose; healthy animals and happy owners.

We are committed to investing in the career progression of our people and we expect our Senior Vets to take control of their own career through challenging themselves.

We will support all employees in pursuing a particular interest and offer exceptional mentoring programmes.

We make a real impact on the wider profession by driving clinical research and, by joining the Vets Now & IVC family, you will be at the forefront of clinical excellence.

A Progressive Workplace is a Happy Workplace:

At IVC Evidensia we invest heavily in the continuous professional development of all our people across the business, whether that's in professional qualifications progression opportunities or coaching and mentoring.

A full-time role with us will comprise 40 hours per week and will include weeknights, weekends and bank holidays, following an on-off shift pattern.
