RESPONSIBILITIES
As a veterinarian with us, you have the opportunity to work broadly and variedly with all types of animals, while also having room to develop within a specific animal group or area. We constantly strive for high quality in what we do; we are happy to learn from each other and share our knowledge and experience. Everyone is equally important, and everyone contributes to making our workplace pleasant and forward-looking. We have 24/7 readiness year-round, which means night and weekend work is part of the position.
Sometimes you work alone, but you are never isolated. We are a large organization, and support and advice from experienced colleagues is just a phone call away. During evenings and nights, there is always a manager on call (CiB) and our emergency phone line 9900, where employees receive calls from pet owners and coordinate contact with the relevant veterinarian. There is always a colleague to ask for advice, whether a colleague on call (KiB), at your own clinic, or at a nearby clinic.
We continuously work on competence development, and we see your professional growth as our best investment.
The District Veterinarians have clear treatment guidelines that serve as a good support in our clinical work. We also have a thoroughly developed hygiene policy for care hygiene that is important for us to follow.
QUALIFICATIONS
We are looking for you who have a Swedish veterinary license.
A B-class driver's license is required.
To succeed in the role, you need to be structured, have good collaboration skills, and be solution-focused. It is important that you can work independently and be self-sufficient while also appreciating collaboration with colleagues.
Furthermore, you need to have good computer skills and strong administrative abilities, as booking and medical record keeping are important parts of the job.
Selection and interviews take place on an ongoing basis.
