Junior Clinician in Small Animal Medicine/Critical Care

The University of Glasgow Small Animal Hospital is seeking to recruit a Junior Clinician to join our internal medicine team. This position might suit someone who has recently completed a rotating internship and who is looking for the next step towards specialization, and who has an interest in both medicine and critical care.

You will support the delivery of an efficient and effective small animal internal medicine/critical care referral service by providing clinical activity under supervision of our medicine and critical care specialists and by contributing to out-of-hours service provision. You’ll be joining a vibrant and supportive team, who thrive on achieving the best possible outcome for all patients under our care.

Applications are invited from candidates with a veterinary degree registerable with RCVS who have completed a rotating internship or equivalent and have post-graduate clinical experience in small animal internal medicine and/or critical care. Previous applicants need not apply.

This post is offered on a 1 year fixed-term basis and offers the early-stage clinical experience required as vets prepare for further specialist training, for example through European Board of Veterinary Specialisation (EBVS®) approved residencies and/or masters formal training programmes. While appointments may be extended for a short fixed-term period where this would be in the mutual interest, in the interests of ensuring that veterinary career development is supported, and to assist with recruitment to the University’s EBVS® approved Residency and our own Masters Programmes, the one-year duration will remain the normal duration.

The School of Veterinary Medicine has an excellent international reputation in teaching, clinical services and research and is accredited by the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS), the European Association of Establishments of Veterinary Education (EAEVE) and the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA). Our purpose-built hospital is one of the most sophisticated in Europe allowing companion animals from across the United Kingdom to benefit for the most advanced care available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week throughout the year from some of the best specialist vets in the world.
