JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

We work in teams, and we are now looking for staff for the small animal team. We have several experienced veterinarians who together have a very broad competence. Emergency care and investigations are part of the job. On-call duty for acute illnesses and accidents is a natural part of the work, as it is part of our mission, and we are proud to be able to offer this. We also have animal caregivers scheduled during evenings and weekends to facilitate the work. Emergency care is the most important thing we do, and there are good opportunities for both interesting and developing work. We perform surgery and dental treatments almost daily and have a high demand for our services. Welcome to work with us!

QUALIFICATIONS

We are now looking for a veterinarian with either extensive or limited experience in small animal care. There are good development opportunities, and requests for specialization in certain areas are often possible to accommodate. Experience in imaging diagnostics, medical investigations, and emergency care is an asset but not a requirement. If you are a surgeon or have dental training, there are also good opportunities for development.

The ideal candidate should be quality-conscious and have a desire to work for the welfare of animals and provide good and personal service to pet owners. We place great importance on good collaboration skills, computer proficiency, and personal suitability. On-call duty is included in the position, so we value that you are both self-sufficient and have good judgment.

We welcome your application. Recruitment is ongoing.

OTHER

We care about our staff. Therefore, we provide all employees at the District Veterinarians the opportunity to take advantage of various benefits. Some examples include 28-35 days of vacation depending on your age, salary exchange, wellness grants, and occupational health services. For parents, we have good conditions to find a balance between work and family life, including parental leave supplements and the opportunity to reduce your working hours until the child is twelve years old.

We strive for diversity among our employees.

Our working language is Swedish, and our services require proficiency in Swedish both spoken and written.

We normally apply a 6-month probationary period.

In preparation for the recruitment process, the District Veterinarians have made decisions regarding recruitment channels and marketing. Therefore, we do not wish to be contacted by advertisement sellers or recruitment companies.
