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 private individuals, companies, and authorities. We offer community-supporting services for emergency veterinary care, disease 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.
With the customer at the center, it is important for us that our employees are competent and engaged. Our broad operations give you access to knowledgeable colleagues, a varied and interesting job, modern equipment, and continuous professional development.
JOB RESPONSIBILITIES
Jämtland is the natural choice for those who want to combine a rich and active outdoor life with a developing career. Here you will find the education, jobs, and quality of life!
The practice is mixed with small animals, horses, and farm animals. The clinic is located in Brunflo, about 20 km south of Östersund. We are a well-equipped clinic with X-ray, ultrasound, and an operating department (dental and soft tissue surgery). At the horse clinic at Östersundstravet, we work three days a week, where we have X-ray, ultrasound, endoscopy, and dental equipment. During the summer months, we are responsible for a larger stud farm. Currently, ten to twelve veterinarians and six licensed veterinary nurses/animal caregivers work at the District Veterinarians in Jämtland. During on-call hours, we are two veterinarians sharing the work.
QUALIFICATIONS
We are now looking for someone who wants to work in a mixed practice with all species of animals.
You who apply should have a veterinary degree and Swedish veterinary license or special permission. A B driver's license is a requirement for the position. Longer experience in horse practice is an advantage. In beautiful Jämtland, the farms are far apart, so enjoying driving is a prerequisite. We believe in the future and know that it is our own work that shapes the clinic. We place great importance on personal abilities. You who apply should have good collaboration skills and loyalty to colleagues and employers. We see that you are meticulous and structured. Furthermore, you are service-oriented, have good judgment, and can work independently. You should not be afraid to ask for help or to help others.
Welcome to apply for the position today! Recruitment is ongoing.
OTHER
We care about our staff. Therefore, we offer all employees within the District Veterinarians the opportunity to take advantage of various benefits. Some examples are 28-35 days of vacation depending on your age, salary exchange, wellness grants, and occupational health care. For you as a parent, we have good conditions to find a good balance between work and family life, including parental leave supplements and the possibility 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 that you master Swedish in both speech and writing.
We normally apply a 6-month probationary period.
In preparation for the recruitment process, the District Veterinarians have taken a position on 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 information again.
