About this role

Lead Veterinary Surgeon | Branch Partnership Opportunity – Kent

Practice Ownership with the Support to Succeed

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Lead Veterinary Surgeon to take the next step into practice ownership through a fully supported Branch Partnership model. Based within a well-established, RCVS-accredited small animal practice in Kent, this role offers the independence of owning a practice without the challenges of doing it alone.

Ideal for an ambitious Veterinary Surgeon with leadership experience, the successful candidate will lead a thriving practice equipped with digital X-ray, ultrasound, an in-house laboratory and modern diagnostic facilities. Comprehensive operational, financial and clinical support allows partners to focus on delivering outstanding patient care and growing the practice.

The Role

The Branch Partner will lead and mentor the veterinary team, maintain exceptional clinical standards and play a key role in the continued success of the practice. Previous leadership experience is essential.

Partnership Benefits

  • Monthly profit share plus a guaranteed exit payment.
  • Structured exit strategy with increasing practice valuations.
  • Potential drawings rising from approximately £110,000 by Year 2 to £178,000 by Year 10.
  • Opportunity to build equity, with projected values exceeding £1.2 million over time*.
  • Flexible finance options, including deferred payment schemes.

Comprehensive Support

Partners receive dedicated support from finance, HR, marketing, procurement, facilities and Regional Operations teams, alongside business coaching and access to an experienced veterinary network. Guaranteed minimum drawings of £75,000 are available during the early stages if practice profits are below expectations.

Candidate Requirements

The ideal candidate will be an RCVS Registered Veterinary Surgeon with previous leadership or mentoring experience, excellent clinical and communication skills, and a passion for delivering exceptional patient and client care while developing a successful team.

This is a fantastic opportunity to combine clinical leadership, practice ownership and long-term financial reward, all with the reassurance of an experienced support network behind every step.
