Compass Associates area proud to be working alongside a first opinion, veterinary practice near Nottingham to help them in their search for a new Clinical Lead Surgeon.
The Clinic:
Our two practice owners are both still part of the clinical team; they are 'boots on the ground' managers who are always there for their team. Currently, we have 5 Surgeons, 3 RVNs and a wealth of support staff so that we create an efficient, clinically excellent experience for both staff, clients and (most importantly), patients! We are a very close-knit team with staff retention being very successful. A no-nonsense approach to conflict means we have an excellent culture of support.
As well as all the usual bells and whistles you'd want in a modern, small animal practice like large theatres, consult rooms and staff space, we have all sorts of additional bits for you to use. Our diagnostic equipment is extraordinary with echocardiography capabilities; we perform a variety of orthopaedic and soft tissue surgeries and have large, spacious ward space.

You will also need to have a strong, business orientated mindset as part of your role will be to drive the practices growth. Knowledge of P&L, staff management and growth planning are a big plus.
