The Vet Office is managing the recruitment process for a mixed veterinary surgeon to join a friendly and experienced practice located in Tipperary for a temporary contract from January to June 2026.

About the Clinic

The clinic operates with a small, close-knit team composed of:

• A veterinarian with 25 years of experience

Requirements

• VCI registered and being currently living in Ireland. 

• Experience and confidence in mixed practice
