About Us
Come, join our 21-strong vet team, and
GROW WITH US .
Our proudly independent Veterinary Hospital team in Malmesbury, Wiltshire, seeks 3 new graduates to join our New Graduate Programme this August. We are part of the proudly independent George Veterinary Group with a set of values which is evident in everything we do: Compassion, Respect, Integrity, Sustainability, Progression and Care.
Become the high-quality vet you want to be.
As a new graduate at our independent practice, you will be working directly with the practice owners and decision makers who can respond quickly and flexibly to your individual situation. As a Vet Graduate Development accredited practice, our programme provides the resource and support to ensure you develop your clinical skills, gain the confidence and trust of your clients, and grow your area of competence for the rest of your career.
Work alongside an experienced mentor within your immediate team to develop both clinical and non-clinical skills. Support is always available from our friendly and approachable team, which has a wide depth of knowledge, with certificate holders and others working towards the qualification, as well as visiting specialists.
Being part of a Group, with other species departments, you will find there are opportunities both inside and outside of work to grow and enjoy the company and experience of a wonderful group of people. We have regular social and wellbeing events and our own Support and Development Manager within the Group. The George Forum is an opportunity for representatives from every area to meet and discuss ideas to improvement wellbeing and the working environment. Some recent initiatives have included enhanced maternity pay and top-ups on jury service commitments.
We are in a beautiful part of the country and blessed with both rural surroundings and historic towns – Malmesbury is the oldest borough in the UK, steeped in history with its Abbey and is just a few miles from Tetbury, Cirencester and within proximity of Bristol and Bath.
“As a new graduate, I was searching for the perfect first job; a job that would allow me to lay a solid foundation from which to build on as I progressed through my career as a vet.
The opportunity offered by The George has been exactly that. Within days of starting, I felt right at home, both supported and accepted by the entire team.
I have learned more than I thought possible in my first few months as a vet, as the hospital is very busy and sees an incredible variety of cases. The programme itself is challenging, forcing you to step outside your comfort zone at times, but is never overwhelming, as you always have someone to call on for support; the mentorship is unmatched. I would recommend The George to anyone looking for their first opportunity as a vet!”
Andi Naude – New Graduate Programme
\"The George has been an amazing balance of case exposure and support for me. My VetGDP advisor, and indeed all the vets, provide a wealth of support day-to-day so that I can freely work up the cases I come across with plenty of guidance, as needed. Out of hours, I always have a back-up to call if required and the variety of emergency cases has given me a really strong foundation as a new graduate vet. \"
