Department of Clinical Sciences
Do you have clinical experience as a small animal veterinarian, enjoy working with clients, and take pride in providing first-class veterinary care? Would you like to contribute to ensuring that tomorrow's veterinary nurses and veterinarians feel included and motivated during their clinical training? Perhaps you are also interested in taking part in a clinical research project? All of this is possible when you join us at the Small Animal Department at the University Animal Hospital (UDS)! We look forward to receive your application!
About the position
As a licensed veterinarian at UDS, you will work in a varied clinical environment within a 24-hour operation at Sweden's only university animal hospital.
As SLU is the only higher education institution in Sweden providing education for veterinary and veterinary nursing professionals, you will have an active role in educating future veterinarians and veterinary nurses in the clinical setting.
The position includes evening, night and weekend shifts, as our operations run around the clock.
You will be supported by our specialists and experienced colleagues within the team, enabling you to thrive in the clinical environment and develop in your professional role.
Your profile
You are a licensed veterinarian with the right to practise veterinary medicine in Sweden. You have several years of clinical experience and are a confident emergency veterinarian, accustomed to making medical assessments and performing emergency surgery. A Step 1 qualification in diseases of dogs and cats, or equivalent, is an advantage.
As the position involves extensive contact with animal owners and students, you need to have good command of Swedish, both spoken and written. Alternatively, you should have a good command of English and be motivated to learn Swedish.
At the University Animal Hospital, we are client-focused and committed to maintaining a professional approach characterised by respect and goodwill in our relationships with clients and colleagues. You are a good communicator with the ability to establish and maintain positive relationships with both clients and colleagues.
You are interested in teaching and contributing to creating good conditions for research. As a veterinarian at the University Animal Hospital, you have a scientific approach and an interest in evidence-based veterinary care. You understand that an event-driven emergency service with irregular working hours is something you are able to manage.
As a person, you are organised, have good self-awareness, understand what causes you stress, and are motivated to contribute to the organisation. In this recruitment process, considerable importance will be placed on your personal qualities.
About us
The Department of Clinical Sciences is responsible for undergraduate education, research and postgraduate education in anaesthesiology, diagnostic imaging, veterinary nursing, epidemiology, laboratory animal science, surgery, clinical chemistry, medicine and reproduction. Our activities within all these fields encompass all animal species.
At the SLU University Animal Hospital (UDS), education, research and advanced veterinary care go hand in hand. We educate tomorrow's veterinarians and veterinary nurses and provide first-class care for companion animals, competition animals and production animals. We also share knowledge with the general public. By combining established knowledge with the latest research findings, we are developing the veterinary care of the future.
Under one roof, we provide veterinary care for horses, dogs, cats and other small animals. In addition to modern, purpose-built facilities, we have access to advanced diagnostic imaging and a specialist veterinary laboratory.
