Are you ready for your next challenge in one of the most exciting,
diverse and fun loving cities in the World?
If you’re looking for a rewarding job with a great work-life balance,
awesome team spirit and fantastic learning environment…
then the SPCA (Hong Kong) might just be the place for you!
The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (HK) is one of Asia’s leading animal welfare organisations with seven income generating private clinics, a welfare spay-neuter clinic and two mobile vehicles.
SPCA veterinary surgeons enjoy an excellent work-life balance; generous annual leave, a 5-day week, a 6pm finish, and very limited work on Sundays and Public Holidays (emergency cover and welfare only). Allowing for plenty of time off to relax and recharge, and to enjoy and pursue the finer things in life!
Due to future expansion plans we are seeking a highly motivated, team orientated, fun-loving individual to join our large, enthusiastic and diverse team in a busy multi-centre practice, where professional development and specialisation is encouraged and supported through mentorship, CPD leave, and both internal and external training. Facilities include a brand new 24-hour hospital, in-house diagnostic laboratory, digital and dental radiography, ultrasonography, ECG, endoscopy and modern surgical suites. In late 2022 a new state of the art hospital is due to open in the New Territories which will include in-house CT and MRI facilities alongside all our current capacities.
In addition to a busy and diverse case load, veterinary surgeons provide expertise and support for SPCA welfare initiatives – including animal adoption, spay/neuter programmers and an assisted veterinary care programmer for those in need. Giving our veterinary surgeons chance to not only help owned pets but also to improve the quality of life for those less fortunate animals.
The successful candidate would be based at our Hong Kong hospital overseeing the running of our surgery floor. Surgical caseloads are extremely high with a large variety of interesting procedures and injuries. The job is perfect for a confident and skilled surgeon wishing to further hone their skills.

- Strong surgical skills in both soft tissue and orthopedic surgery, preferably to Certificate level.
- Strong interpersonal and communication skills and ability to work within a team.
- A keen interest in the development and mentorship of colleagues in all aspects of surgery.
- Responsible, systematic and able to work under pressure.
- Drive and enthusiasm.
- Genuine interest in the welfare of animals.
General information:
This vacancy has an attractive remuneration package including: salary to scale, CPD leave, low taxation rates (max. 17%), accommodation, health insurance, professional indemnity insurance, provident fund contributions, assistance with practicing certificates and a generous leave allowance to relax and recharge!
