We have a full time position available for a qualified veterinary surgeon who has experience in production animals to join our School as a Lecturer in Veterinary Clinical Practice (LVCP), delivering innovative veterinary education. This is a great opportunity to train and influence the vets of the future and comes with a great benefits package including a generous salary with an additional 10% uplift for MRCVS/FRCVS, 37 days holiday PLUS bank holidays, and an industry leading pension. This is a full time role, working 5 days per week. The successful candidate will be enrolled in a post graduate certificate in education.

About the role

LVCPs act as clinical and personal tutors to our final year students, supporting their learning and facilitating their transition to new graduates, whilst also supporting practice-based trained preceptors in the delivery of our distributed model of clinical education. 

The distributed model means that you will work to support our students on their rotations at practices across the UK. While students are on placement you will spend a significant amount of time travelling to partner practices to deliver in person support to our students along with time in Guildford to teach students and support examinations. 

About you

This position would suit someone with experience in production animal practice but additional experience working with other species would be advantageous. We are looking for someone with an intuitive passion for teaching, but prior academic experience is not a prerequisite. We are happy to consider candidates considering a career change into academia. You will have a solid grounding in essential veterinary skills and a pragmatic attitude, able to think on your feet and adapt to the requirements of the role.

Due to the nature of the role and the distribution of our partner network, this post will require a significant amount of travel and as such we will consider applicants based in all locations throughout the country.

To apply please submit a CV. You will also be asked to complete an application form to help us assess your suitability for the position.

Informal enquiries are invited and should be directed to Matt Sanford (m.sanford@surrey.ac.uk)

- Understand the importance of welfare and safeguarding 

- Work well as part of a team
