The Department seeks to recruit a Junior Clinical Training Scholar (JCTS) in Small Animal Neurology from January 2027, or as soon as possible after that date, in order to enhance provision of the Small Animal Neurology service and undergraduate teaching.
You will help to facilitate the smooth running of the Small Animal Neurology service by supporting the team with all aspects of the work-up, diagnosis and management of small animal surgical patients, helping with scheduling of appointments, preparation for and assisting with surgeries, and the post-surgical aftercare and discharge of the patients. You will contribute to the ongoing clinical research conducted within the Neurology department. You will support final-year veterinary students during their small animal neurology rotation.
The successful candidate will be involved in all aspects of the Small Animal Neurology Service and will be required to participate in the practical instruction of veterinary students and a weekend / weeknight on call rota within the Hospital. This is an opportunity to develop your clinical and organisational skills, knowledge of small animal neurology, and to gain experience as a clinical teacher of final year veterinary students in a well-equipped and encouraging academic environment. The Internship will offer an excellent opportunity to prepare for Specialist training, such as a Senior Clinical Training Scholarship (Residency) in Small Animal Neurology.
Candidates must be members of the RCVS and have at least 12 months’ experience in companion animal practice. Candidates with some pre-existing experience in small animal neurology or who have completed a rotating Small Animal Internship will be preferred.
