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

To ensure that all animals in Sweden have the conditions to live as good a life as possible, there are the District Veterinarians. With around-the-clock readiness, 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 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.

Vännäs is one of the largest clinics of the District Veterinarians. Our broad operations give you access to knowledgeable colleagues, a varied and interesting job, modern equipment, and continuous professional development. The District Veterinarians in Vännäs, located about 30 kilometers outside Umeå, have a spacious facility adapted for the reception of both small and large animals, where we operate around the clock.

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 work. Readiness for acute illness cases and accidents is a natural part of the job, as it is part of our mission and something we are proud to offer. 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 surgeries and dental treatments almost daily and have 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. Good development opportunities exist, and requests for specialization in certain areas are often possible to accommodate. Experience from work with 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 person we are looking for should be quality-conscious and have a desire to work for the best interests of the animals and for good and personal service to the pet owners. We place great importance on good collaboration skills, computer proficiency, and personal suitability. On-call duty is included in the position, which is why we value that you are both self-sufficient and have good judgment.

Welcome with your application. Recruitment is ongoing.

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 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; we offer, among other things, parental benefit 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 that you master Swedish in both spoken and written form.

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 work with application documents. Once you have filled in your details, you can easily apply for other jobs without having to fill in the information again.
