Small Animal Veterinary Surgeon

Live the Island Life at All Pets Veterinary Centre, Jersey

Are you looking for a veterinary role where you can genuinely enjoy your work, feel valued by your team, and still have time to enjoy life outside the practice?

Welcome to All Pets Veterinary Centre, an independently owned small animal practice in the heart of Jersey, where personalised patient care, team wellbeing, and a genuine love for the profession are at the centre of everything we do.

The Role

We’re looking for a confident GP vet who is comfortable with routine surgery and consultations and enjoys building strong, lasting relationships with clients and their pets. As an island practice, continuity and community are hugely important to us, and our vets genuinely get to know their clients and patients over time.

More than anything, we’re looking for someone who fits our team and shares our values — someone who enjoys being part of a collaborative, supportive environment and is happy to get stuck into all aspects of first opinion practice alongside the rest of the team.

If surgery is your passion, even better. You’ll have the opportunity to take the lead on more complex surgical cases, with excellent facilities including brand-new surgical equipment and a TPLO kit. We’d also love someone who enjoys sharing knowledge, supporting colleagues, and mentoring others. That said, this is very much a hands‑on GP role, and everyone is fully involved in the day‑to‑day caseload.

Wherever your clinical interests lie, we’ll fully support your development. Certificates are encouraged and funded, and we’re always happy to invest in equipment and services that help you grow in the areas you’re most interested in.

The Rota

Our full‑time rota is a 4‑day week (8.30 am to 6 pm) with a set day off, with flexibility where needed. We provide our own out‑of‑hours service on a 1:4 rota. Each surcharge fee goes directly to the vet on duty, and although the OOHs are notoriously quiet (averaging just 4.8 calls per week, including weekends, over the last six months), this still resulted in each vet earning a minimum £5k extra last year!

Why Jersey?

Jersey offers an incredible quality of life — stunning beaches, coastal walks, outdoor sports, vibrant food and arts scenes, and a genuine sense of community. Island life also comes with lower tax rates than the UK mainland, helping your salary go further.

• Salary of £70,000–£100,000 depending on experience
• Five weeks' holiday plus bank holidays (1 extra compared to the UK)
• Your birthday off
• CPD actively encouraged, with certificates supported and funded
