New Street Vets - Honiton, Devon
Up To £70,000 DOE

At inspiring vet care, our people are at the heart of everything we do. As the UK’s number one vet care provider, we're trusted with the care of over 2 million animals, delivering our purpose of healthier animals and happier owners.

New Street Vets, part of IVC Evidensia, is looking for a Veterinary Surgeon to join our friendly and experienced team as we begin an exciting new chapter alongside our sister practice, Otter Vets. This is a fantastic opportunity to become part of a supportive, forward-thinking team where collaboration, clinical excellence and exceptional patient care are at the heart of everything we do.

A Varied Caseload with Plenty of Opportunity

No two days are the same at New Street Vets. As a busy first-opinion small animal practice, you'll enjoy a diverse caseload including cats, dogs, rabbits, small furries, the occasional chicken and even local wildlife. You'll benefit from an excellent balance of consultations and surgery, with the flexibility to focus more heavily on surgery if that's where your interests lie. Working closely with colleagues across both practices, you'll have the opportunity to share knowledge, broaden your experience and enjoy exposure to emergency and critical care cases, ensuring plenty of clinical variety.

Modern Facilities, Community Feel

Housed in a charming converted property close to Honiton's high street, our practice combines a welcoming community atmosphere with modern facilities. You'll have access to dedicated consulting rooms, a dental radiography suite, a recently installed ultrasound machine and a comprehensive in-house laboratory, all designed to help you deliver outstanding patient care. With an exciting refurbishment also underway, there's never been a better time to join us.

A Team That Helps You Thrive

You'll become part of a collaborative team of experienced Veterinary Surgeons, RVNs and a supportive Practice Manager who genuinely enjoy working together. We encourage open communication, shared learning and professional development, creating an environment where everyone is empowered to grow, pursue their interests and deliver the highest standards of care.

Flexibility That Fits Around You

Full-time hours are 40 per week, worked across four or five days, with part-time applications from 30 hours per week also welcomed. The rota includes just 1:4 Saturday mornings (9:00am–1:00pm), with no out-of-hours or on-call commitments.

Discover Life in Honiton

Nestled in East Devon, Honiton offers the perfect blend of market town charm and countryside living. Surrounded by rolling hills and just a short drive from the Jurassic Coast, you'll have easy access to beautiful beaches, scenic walks and endless outdoor adventures.
