Clinician in Soft Tissue Surgery

The School of Biodiversity, One Health and Veterinary Medicine invites applications for the post of a Clinician in Soft Tissue Surgery. We encourage candidates who have an interest in General Surgery, with a strong soft tissue bias. You will be based in our award-winning Small Animal Hospital on the beautiful Garscube Campus. This busy multidisciplinary hospital is staffed by a team of specialists in surgery, internal medicine, neurology, anaesthesia, cardiology, oncology and diagnostic imaging.

State of the art facilities available on-site include 1.5T MRI, CT, linear accelerator, digital radiography, and four fully equipped surgical theatres. Our ‘One Hospital’ team ethos ensures exceptional clinical care can be delivered to our patients, and supports the continual professional development of our vets, nurses and support staff.

The ideal candidate will hold a Diploma or equivalent qualification but a residency-trained colleague due to sit exams will also be considered. The role will also involve the delivery of clinical teaching to undergraduates, interns and residents. The post offers a significant element of ‘off clinics’ time for research and scholarship.

You should have an RCVS registrable degree in veterinary medicine and hold or be eligible to sit the examination for a postgraduate Diploma in Veterinary Surgery (ECVS, ACVS or RCVS).  Experienced candidates holding Advanced Practitioner status will also be considered.  A background in research and a PhD, although desirable, is not essential.

Package & Benefits include:

• 35-hour working week
• 41 days leave (including public holidays)
• Competitive pension scheme
• 20% discount on Veterinary products and services
• CPD allowance/subsidised further education

Informal enquiries should be made to Mr Richard Coe, Richard.Coe@glasgow.ac.uk

This post is open-ended and full-time, however applicants wishing to work part-time will also be considered.
