Join to apply for the Veterinary Surgeon - Small Animal role at Vet Record Careers
Salary: Up to €60,000 DOE + €5,000 Relocation Support
Why Join Us?
Tullamore Pet Hospital is right in the heart of the Midlands - easy to reach from much of the country and less than 1 hour from Dublin city centre, with the bonus of a great quality of life and a lower cost of living than the cities.
Location: Tullamore Pet Hospital
Contract: Full-time, Permanent
We're a well-equipped hospital with everything you'd expect to work to a high surgical and medical standard - full diagnostics, in-house lab, theatre suites, imaging and more. What makes us different though, is the team: we're supportive, collaborative, and genuinely down to earth. You'll be working alongside colleagues who really enjoy what they do and who've got each other's backs.
Currently, three of our vets hold certificates in Internal Medicine, so there's plenty of expertise to lean on for complex medical cases. That means if surgery is where your strengths or interests lie, you'll have the freedom to focus there, while working with colleagues who can confidently handle advanced diagnostics and referrals.
We also believe in clinical freedom and professional development - if you've got ideas, we want to hear them. You'll have the chance shape the way we work, and grow into a role with genuine influence.
Who We're Looking For
This role would suit a junior to mid-level vet who's confident with the basics and keen to keep growing. Whether you want to strengthen your surgical skills, develop a special interest, or simply gain experience in a busy, supportive hospital, we'll make sure you've got the training, mentorship, and encouragement you need.
You'll also be part of a fair rota: 1 in 4 Saturdays and one night on-call per week, with protected time off - so you'll still have plenty of time to enjoy life outside of work.
