Grow, Lead, and Make a Difference with Watell Vet Group

(Variety in cases whilst working across both clinics)

Why settle for just another vet job when you could build a career that truly excites you?

At Watell Vet Group, you’ll be primarily based at Paddington Vet while working across both of our clinics. We’re not just looking for another veterinarian—we’re looking for someone who wants to be part of something bigger. We believe great veterinary care isn’t just about treating animals; it’s about empowering vets to grow, lead, and find deep fulfilment in their work.

Most clinics offer competitive salaries and great facilities—we do too. But what truly sets us apart is our commitment to creating a workplace where you feel valued, challenged, and supported in becoming the best version of yourself.

We don’t just throw you into the deep end and expect you to swim. We invest in you.

If you’re a new grad wanting structure and support or a vet with a couple of years of experience, looking for a practice that values your skills, encourages leadership, and challenges you to be your best—without burning you out—this is the opportunity you’ve been looking for.

Within Watell Vet Group, Paddington Vet is a structured, growth-focused practice where every vet is empowered to take ownership of their role. Our approach isn’t about simply ticking boxes—it’s about delivering real patient outcomes while supporting our team to thrive.

This is more than just a job. This is your chance to shape your future.

What You’ll Get Working With Us

Ongoing CPD & Career Development:

  • Generous CPD allowance & study leave to pursue your interests.
  • Access to one-on-one consultation coaching.
  • One-on-one mentorship with our Clinical Director, tailored to your goals.
  • Support to develop your skills in surgery, medicine, or an area of special interest.

Diverse & Interesting Caseload:

  • A mix of medical and surgical cases—you won’t just be doing routine procedures.
  • Opportunities to scrub into orthopaedic surgeries and expand your skills.
  • A proactive, client-focused approach that leads to more diagnostics, treatments, and higher case complexity.

Clear Targets & Structured Support:

  • We provide financial and medical targets tailored to your role, giving you clear expectations and pathways for success.
  • No more guessing what’s expected—we’ll help you set and achieve your career goals.

Work-Life Balance That Works:

  • The role can be either a Part-time or Full-time position. Part-time 4-day work week (34 hours) or Full-time 4.5-day work week (38 hours) with a structured schedule.
  • 20-minute paid rest breaks and 30-minute lunch breaks daily, so you don’t have to choose between eating and catching up on notes.
  • We’re serious about avoiding burnout—no endless overtime or unrealistic caseloads.

The Power to Influence Client Outcomes:

  • We believe great vets don’t just diagnose and treat—they educate, guide, and influence clients to move forward with the best care.
  • If you’re passionate about helping clients truly understand their pet’s needs, you’ll love working here.

A Strong, Proactive Team:

  • Be part of a larger team with multiple vets and support team members across two locations.
  • Our nurses and receptionists are trained to be problem-solvers, not just order-takers.
  • You’ll work in an engaged, capable team where everyone supports each other.

What We Expect From You

We’re looking for a vet who is ready to step up, take ownership, and bring real value to the team. That means:

  • You have a minimum of 2 years of clinical experience and feel confident managing your own cases. New Graduates are also encouraged to apply.
  • You’re eager to develop your surgical or medical skills and take advantage of learning opportunities.
  • You can clearly communicate with clients and guide them toward the best treatment decisions.
  • You see yourself as part of a bigger picture—you care about patient outcomes, client relationships, and team dynamics.

Why Work With Us Instead of Another Clinic?

At Watell Vet Group, you’ll get more than just a job—you’ll get a career path, mentorship, and a team that has your back. We believe that when you succeed, the business succeeds, and we’re committed to making that happen.

If you’re ready to stop feeling like just another vet and start working somewhere that truly values your growth, we’d love to hear from you.
