Farm Veterinary Surgeon - a job with a difference

Are you an experienced Farm Vet looking for more autonomy, more impact, and more satisfaction in your career? Tired of the same routine and ready to shape your future in a supportive, forward-thinking team? This is your chance to join a thriving practice in the heart of dairy country — Somerset and East Devon.

Join a modern, farm-animal-only practice where collaboration, quality care, and continuous development are at the heart of everything. You’ll work alongside a highly experienced team of vets, vet techs, and ATT support staff, meaning more time doing what you love — delivering top-tier clinical care.

Here’s what makes this role stand out:

Clinical Autonomy: Lead the way in delivering best practice — your input and leadership matter.

Career Progression: Get support for post-grad qualifications and CPD that fuels your passion.

Diverse Caseload: From 30+ routine dairy visits to beef, sheep, and youngstock — variety is guaranteed.

Team Ethos: Work in a genuinely happy, tight-knit team that values collaboration and communication.

Community Engagement: Contribute to farmer training and discussion groups — make a real difference.


This isn’t just another job — it’s a career-defining opportunity. You'll be based near Taunton, nestled between the stunning Quantock and Blackdown Hills with easy access to the Jurassic Coast. The out-of-hours rota is sensible (1 in 6), the working culture is flexible, and the team has even earned a 3-star B-Heard rating for employee happiness.

What’s in it for you?

A generous salary package aligned with your experience and leadership potential

Flexible working options — let’s build a role that works for you

Clear CPD support and encouragement of post-grad study

A positive, respected, and genuinely happy workplace
