Whether you’re seeking a first-opinion GP role, a surgery-heavy caseload, or a clinically progressive setting with strong team support, we regularly recruit for permanent positions that suit different experience levels and career goals.

Many roles in and around Pontypridd offer flexible rota patterns, including part-time options, four-day weeks, and reduced weekend commitments. A number of practices operate with no OOH, or shared and well-supported OOH rotas.

Typical responsibilities include consultations, diagnostics, routine soft-tissue surgery, dentistry, imaging interpretation, case management, clinical record-keeping, and client communication. Some opportunities also offer structured mentorship, certificate support, and progression into Senior Vet or Clinical Lead roles.

We focus on accurate job matching, transparent information, and a straightforward recruitment process. You’ll only be introduced to roles that genuinely match your salary expectations, rota preferences, and clinical interests.

Our support includes:

  • Full role details before interview

  • Honest salary and benefits information

  • Interview preparation and offer negotiation

  • Long-term career and progression guidance
