Vacant job

Are you ready to work in a community-supporting organization?

To ensure that all animals in Sweden have the conditions to live the best life possible, there are the District Veterinarians. With readiness around the clock, clinics across the country, and unique knowledge of animal health, we contribute to healthier animals and a safer life. As district veterinarians, we work on behalf of individuals, businesses, and authorities. We offer community-supporting services for emergency animal care, infection control, and preventive measures for good animal health. Always with our feet on the ground and our hearts in the right place. The District Veterinarians are part of the Swedish Board of Agriculture.

Do you want to work broadly in the field with a particular focus on horses, in an organization where quality, collegial support, and development are at the center? We are now looking for a veterinarian with an interest in field operations, preferably with horses as the main focus, for the District Veterinarians in Flyinge.

With us, small animals, horses, and farm animals meet in a varied and stimulating everyday life. We are part of a large organization, but with the closeness and team spirit of a small district.

JOB DESCRIPTION

As a veterinarian with us, you will primarily work in the field or at the clinic with horses, and to some extent with farm animals. Work at the clinic with small animals may also occur based on the needs of the organization and your experience.

Your tasks include, among others:

• Fieldwork primarily with horses, both planned and emergency visits
• Emergency care for all species of animals on standby.
• Infection control is also part of the work, both during standby in connection with outbreaks and in daily work.
• Official assignments for all animals.

Standby is a natural part of the job. We have standby around the clock, year-round, but actively work for good recovery and a sustainable work environment. Sometimes you work alone, but you are never alone. Support is always available from colleagues on standby, the standby manager (CiB), and our central standby phone.

We care about ensuring that you as a new employee receive a safe introduction and a smooth start in standby work, with the opportunity to accompany a colleague if needed.

QUALIFICATIONS

We are looking for someone who is passionate about emergency animal care and sees it as a privilege to work with several different species and have a varied job.

The position includes standby where you always have access to a colleague by phone. Our veterinarians have a strong focus on customer satisfaction and service, as do you.

You need to thrive in an environment where the day can quickly change, where we adapt and help each other to manage the situations that arise together.

With your calm demeanor and ability to be structured, you plan and prioritize your work effectively. As a veterinarian, you demonstrate good judgment in the decisions you make and are keen to do a good job. You need to be independent but not afraid to ask for help or guidance.

A Swedish veterinary license and a B driver's license are required. Our working language is Swedish.

Interviews may take place on an ongoing basis during the application period, so do not hesitate to submit your application!

OTHER

We care about our staff. Therefore, we provide all employees within 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 you as a parent, 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 positions require proficiency in Swedish in both speech and writing.

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 ad sellers or recruitment companies.

At the District Veterinarians, we use e-recruitment through Public Jobs to streamline and ensure the quality of the application process. Once you have filled in your details, you can easily apply for other jobs without having to fill in the details again.
