About us:
We are seeking a 5th Veterinary Surgeon to come and join our friendly and vibrant team at Warrington Riverside Vets for Pets. Warrington is based in the Northwest of England, in between the cities of Manchester and Liverpool, just a 30-minute drive from either, along the M62. This is ideal for those who love city exploring on their days off, but also the beaches of Formby, Crosby, and North Wales are all under an hour away if you prefer outdoor exploring. The practice itself is located with the Pets at Home store on Junction 9 retail park, to the North of Warrington and under 30 minutes' walk from the local train station.
Our team is currently made up of 3 full-time and 1 part-time vets, 7 RVNs, 2 SVNs, 3 VCAs, and 5 CCAs, all of whom are led by our amazing partners Alex and Sam who became JVPs over 8 years ago. As a team, we are keen on colleague development, with regular EMS placements for vet students, internal mentoring for new grads, and we are recognised as an RVN and VCA teaching practice.

Our strong nursing team also conduct appointments where they can for 2nd vaccinations, post-op checks, and schedule 3, to help our vet team.
