At Cedar Grove, we are more than a small animal hospital; we are a centre for excellence, combining high-quality first-opinion care with an expanding referral caseload. This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced Veterinary Surgeon ready to take the next step in their career, shaping the future of our hospital with the support of a skilled and passionate team.

Purpose-built RCVS-accredited hospital with five consultation rooms, two theatres, and a state-of-the-art diagnostic suite featuring CT, MRI, ultrasound, and X-ray. The caseload covers advanced soft tissue and orthopaedic surgery, neurology, oncology, and emergency care. An interest in referrals, particularly orthopaedics or neurosurgery, would be an advantage as we continue to grow this side of the practice.

You’ll join a dynamic team of nine Veterinary Surgeons, supported by 14 RVNs and 12 dedicated support staff. With certificate holders on the team, others pursuing advanced qualifications, and a visiting cardiology specialist, we pride ourselves on collaboration and shared learning. As a senior vet, your input will be highly valued, and you’ll play a key role in case discussions, mentoring colleagues, and shaping clinical standards.

We support every clinician’s individual aspirations. Whether you’re looking to advance your skills in surgery, grow a referral interest, or complete a certificate, you’ll find the backing you need. Your professional journey is as important as the care you deliver.

We offer genuine flexibility around rotas and working hours. Standard full-time pattern is four days per week, with variable hours and 1:6 weekends; out-of-hours are covered by Vets Now. We’ll work with you to make the arrangement fit either full- or part-time.

South Belfast is a diverse area with cultural and social amenities, easy access to Belfast International Airport, and strong road links.
