Join to apply for the Veterinary Surgeon - Mixed Animal role at IVC Evidensia.

12-month fixed term contract, covering maternity leave, offering a chance to be part of a true mixed animal practice in the heart of Highland Perthshire.

While our preference is for a Mixed Animal Veterinary Surgeon, we are also happy to consider applications from Small Animal Vets who feel they would be a great fit.

We offer a flexible approach to working hours to help you balance career and priorities outside of work.

Both our Aberfeldy and Pitlochry branches are equipped with Digital X-ray & Ultrasound, and a range of other tools and equipment. Our team includes 6 Vets, 3 registered veterinary nurses, 1 student veterinary nurse, and a Practice Manager. We are a close-knit team with social activity and a friendly client base, located in the Scottish Highlands with access to outdoor activities.

Salary: £0 - £65,000 per year (up to £65,000 DOE).
