Location: Glasgow
Salary: £33,482 to £37,174 per annum (Grade 6)

The University of Glasgow’s Equine Hospital & Practice is seeking to recruit several Junior Assistant Clinicians in Equine to deliver and have responsibility for equine clinical patient care under the supervision of experienced and fully qualified staff. You will participate, and assist, in the Hospital’s activities which include medicine and surgery (including lameness casework) services, undergraduate student teaching and 24/7 operation. These positions provide a graduate with the chance to develop a broad range of skills in a supportive environment, in preparation for the transition to practice or as a springboard to an equine residency.

You will contribute to the 24/7 operation of the hospital by working a pattern which includes night shifts (shared with colleagues, aiming for a minimum 1:3 rota). In all these activities you will support student training by providing instruction, supervision and feedback, and receive appropriate training themselves as required. Onsite accommodation is provided as part of the employment package.

These posts are offered on a 1 year fixed-term basis, such that they offer the early-stage clinical experience required in preparation 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 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 Glasgow Equine Hospital works closely with veterinary surgeons throughout Scotland and northern England to provide support and referral services for horses in need of specific procedures or further diagnostics, treatment, and hospitalisation. The hospital team works with our Glasgow Equine Practice, that provides ambulatory services to the local area. These posts offer an opportunity to work within a close-knit clinical team with the additional benefit of living within a thriving city, with the Highlands on the doorstep.
