Review:

The self-proclaimed biggest veterinary jobs website in the U.K., Vet Times Jobs aims to help employers recruit the best talent for a range of veterinary positions. The platform is a division of Vet Times, a daily print and online publication that features the latest veterinary news, resources, career events, and recruitment listings in the U.K.

Compared to other top veterinary job boards, Vet Times Jobs is more expensive but does offer a comprehensive range of recruitment services, such as social media promotion, targeted emails, a skills-matching database, and job-writing support.

  • The site features several print and online job posting packages.
  • Employers can advertise locum jobs for free.
  • The Silver and Gold package jobs are live for 90 days.
  • Jobs are sent to candidates via email alerts.
  • All packages include job-writing support.
  • The Bronze package allows company branding such as adding the employer's logo and other images to job posts.
  • The Silver and Gold packages offer social media promotion services.
  • The Gold package gives employers access to a skill-matching database and a campaign manager.
  • The platform features hiring resources, such as articles on furloughing workers and reviewing CVs.

Vet Times Jobs vs. Vet Record Careers:

Like Vet Times Jobs, Vet Record Careers advertises local veterinary roles and offers featured listings for increased visibility. At £595.00 +VAT per post, Vet Times Jobs is slightly costlier than Vet Record Careers, which charges £550.00 +VAT per post. Of the two, only Vet Times Jobs features social media promotion,

Vet Times Jobs vs. Veterinary Jobs Marketplace:

While Vet Times Jobs and Veterinary Jobs Marketplace both specialize in veterinary jobs, the latter is a global job site that also caters to North America, Asia, and Australia. Both sites offer social media promotion and targeted emails, but Vet Times Jobs outweighs Veterinary Jobs Marketplace with more comprehensive services.

Vet Times Jobs vs. Reed.co.uk:

Reed.co.uk is a well-known general job board in the U.K. In comparison, Vet Times Jobs is more niche and advertises veterinary vacancies. Although Reed.co.uk is the more affordable option, charging £89.00 +VAT for a new customer post, Vet Times Jobs may be the better choice for finding more suitable candidates faster.
