4. Be part of the provision of an out-of-hour veterinarian service.
Essential for the Role:
1. Doctor in Veterinary Medicine (DVM) degree or equivalent, allowing professional registration as a clinical veterinarian in Sweden, or the possibility to successfully attain the veterinary license in a short period of time, from an accredited veterinary college or university.
2. Experience in laboratory animal surgery and post-operative care.
3. Knowledge of laboratory animal welfare regulations and guidelines.
4. Strong leadership and team-building skills with excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
5. Ability to work well with researchers, animal care staff, and other collaborators to gain and share knowledge, learn and instruct new techniques, and drive innovation.

Desirable for the Role:
1. Previous experience in a laboratory animal science setting in a veterinary role.
2. Experience of working in AAALAC-accredited animal facilities.
3. Hands-on experience with surgery and post-operative care on laboratory pigs.
