Experienced Stud Vet

Bell Equine is seeking an experienced stud vet for the 2026 season, initially on a 1 year fixed term contract, with the potential for this to become a permanent role.

The caseload would consist of the management of chilled and frozen inseminations at our clinic, alongside routine ambulatory stud work at our yards.  

Bell Equine has developed a strong and varied reproductive caseload with a significant majority being managed at our clinic supported by our stud team.

Salary will be commensurate with experience with BEVA/RCVS subscriptions paid. We are situated in the heart of Kent with great transport links especially to London or further afield to Europe by Eurostar.

As part of CVS, we are able to offer:

• 5 weeks annual leave a year plus bank holidays, rising to 6 weeks leave a year after first 5 years of service (1 extra day per annum based on service), options to buy/sell holiday to a maximum of 7 weeks
