Oxford University is seeking veterinary surgeons/NVS’s to join our team of vets at the Department of Biomedical Services. We have several vacancies and will consider candidates who wish to work part-time as well as full-time. There is also potential for some flexible working. These positions are permanent contracts.
The core purpose of the University of Oxford’s Biomedical Services (BMS) is to provide for the care and welfare of animals in experimental research, supporting the scientific community across the University. We operate a hybrid veterinary/Named Veterinary Surgeon service with a mix of in-house and outsourced staff, moving towards a full in-house service over the next 18 months.
We are looking for individuals who appreciate the need to provide animal services for the advancement of medicine and medical breakthroughs. Our vets play a core role in providing expert support and clinical procedural expertise to the University’s Principal Investigators and their research groups, as well as to our animal technicians at BMS.
As part of our commitment to your development, we offer an excellent remuneration and benefits package, including training for new vets to achieve Named Veterinary Surgeon (NVS) status, enhancing both expertise and career opportunities. Once a NVS, the salary band will increase to grade 9. We are also interested in existing Named Veterinary Surgeons who would join us at grade 9.
