Shape the Future of Veterinary Dentistry at MyVets Lancashire

Are you a Veterinary Surgeon with a passion for dentistry-or looking to develop one?

MyVets Lancashire, part of IVC Evidensia, is offering an exciting opportunity to join our team as part of a developing dentistry-focused service, where you can play a key role in shaping and delivering high-quality dental care.

This is more than a standard GP role – it’s a chance to build your clinical interest in dentistry within a supportive, forward-thinking environment.

Why This Role Stands Out

We are actively developing our dental offering, giving you the opportunity to:

  • Be part of a dedicated and growing dentistry service
  • Work with modern dental equipment, including dental radiography
  • Develop your skills in dental procedures, imaging, and treatment planning
  • Play a key role in promoting proactive dental care and best practice
  • Contribute to a more structured and efficient dental workflow
  • Additional qualifications in Veterinary Dentistry and Oral Surgery are not required, but this role would particularly suit a vet working towards-or holding-a dental certificate.

Your Role

You will enjoy a varied caseload with a balance of:

  • Consultations – including identifying and advising on dental cases
  • Surgery – with opportunities to increase your dental caseload
  • Dentistry – from routine procedures through to more advanced cases as you develop

You’ll be supported by an experienced team who are committed to clinical collaboration, mentorship, and knowledge sharing.

The Hours

  • 40 hours per week over 4 days (8am-7pm)
  • 1 in 5 Saturdays (8am-2pm)
  • No OOH or bank holidays
  • Open to part-time and flexible working patterns

IVC Evidensia is the UK and Europe’s leading veterinary care group, made up of over 900 practices and referral hospitals, united by a shared purpose of happier animals, happier owners.

At IVC Evidensia, we believe careers should be built without limits. Our people are supported to make more clinical impact, access more career opportunities, and play an active role in their local and professional communities. Through investment in learning, innovation, and wellbeing, we create environments where our teams can grow in confidence, capability, and fulfilment – at every stage of their career.

You Might Be a Great Fit If…

  • You are a confident and motivated veterinary surgeon who enjoys working as part of a team and is committed to delivering high-quality patient and client care.
  • A Veterinary degree and registration (or eligibility to register) with the RCVS.
  • Experience working in clinical practice with growing confidence in routine medical and surgical cases.
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to build effective relationships with clients and colleagues.
  • A proactive approach to learning, with openness to feedback and development.
  • Professionalism, reliability, and the ability to work both independently and collaboratively.

How We’ll Support You

  • Clear career pathways with progression opportunities across primary care, referral, leadership, and specialist roles.
  • Funded learning and development including CPD allowance and access to IVC academy training centres & role-relevant courses.
  • £1,250 annual Care Fund for every vet.
  • Access to mentors, regional clinical coaches, and peer networks.
  • Support to develop clinical interests and expand your capabilities.
  • A collaborative, values-led culture focused on care, community, and continuous improvement.

What We Offer Our Team

  • 6.6 weeks’ holiday including bank holidays.
  • Private medical insurance.
  • Enhanced family leave and pay across maternity, paternity, adoption and surrogacy.
  • BVA membership, VDS cover & RCVS fees.
  • Cycle to Work and Green Car schemes (eligibility applies).
  • Retail discounts and cashback offers.
  • Reduced-cost veterinary care for your own pets.
