Investing in a sport horse is a significant decision. A thorough pre-purchase examination is an essential part of that process ✨

For high-performance horses, a comprehensive veterinary assessment goes beyond establishing whether a horse is currently sound. It provides an objective evaluation of musculoskeletal health, cardiovascular and respiratory function, conformation and overall suitability for the horse’s intended discipline and level of competition 🤩

A detailed PPE can help identify existing concerns, establish appropriate baseline findings and ensure that your investment is supported by sound veterinary evidence.

The right horse is an investment in performance, longevity and partnership. Make that investment with confidence 🙌🏼

At ROS Equine, we’re fortunate to have worked closely with Peter for almost 10 years, particularly in the management of high-level competition horses.

Peter’s experience, knowledge and practical approach have become an invaluable part of the way Rory manages performance horses — extending far beyond the horses Peter shoes himself. His opinion is regularly sought on challenging lameness cases, rehabilitation programmes and the complex demands of keeping competition horses performing at the highest level.

The best results often come from genuine collaboration between vet and farrier, bringing different perspectives and years of practical experience together. Peter’s input has helped us with countless horses over the years, and we have enormous respect for the knowledge and experience he is willing to share.

Keep sharing it Peter Peers Farrier — experience like this is invaluable. 👏 Rory O'Shea

🌱 Short grass doesn’t always mean safe grass! 🌱

It’s finally starting to rain and seems to be followed by sunshine. Grass can grow rapidly and produce/store higher levels of sugars. Even when a paddock looks short or “eaten down,” those young shoots can be highly nutritious, and horses may consume a surprising amount.

For horses and ponies prone to laminitis, this combination can increase the risk ⚠️🐴

Don’t judge a paddock by grass height alone — during ideal growing weather, careful grazing management is especially important 💚

Keep an eye out for the key signs of laminitis in your horses and ponies 👀

EQUINE VETERINARY TECHNICIAN

ROS Equine Veterinary Services Ltd
Sports Medicine • Lameness • Performance

ROS Equine is looking for an enthusiastic and capable Equine Veterinary Technician to join our team.

With our current veterinary technician heading to university, we are looking for someone to take over this important role within our busy ambulatory sports medicine and lameness practice.

This is not a conventional clinic-based position. The successful applicant will work closely alongside our veterinary surgeons, assisting with the investigation and treatment of sport horses across the UK and, at times, throughout Europe.

The Role

The position will include:

* Assisting with lameness and poor-performance investigations
* Handling horses during examinations and procedures
* Assisting with diagnostic imaging, including digital radiography and ultrasonography
* Preparing equipment and horses for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures
* Assisting with regenerative medicine and sports medicine treatments
* Setting up and maintaining veterinary and imaging equipment
* Driving and maintaining veterinary vehicles
* Stock management and preparation for ambulatory calls
* Cleaning, maintaining and organising clinical equipment
* Helping ensure that busy veterinary days run efficiently
* Assisting at competition and performance yards
* Occasional travel throughout the UK and Europe

Full training will be provided for the veterinary and technical aspects of the position.

Who We’re Looking For

We are particularly interested in someone who is:

* Very confident and experienced around competition horses
* Practical, organised and able to think ahead
* Reliable and punctual
* Comfortable working long and sometimes unpredictable days
* Happy working outdoors and travelling extensively
* Calm and professional around clients
* Able to work independently as well as part of a small team
* Physically capable of handling horses and veterinary equipment
* Keen to learn and develop within equine sports medicine

Previous veterinary experience would be advantageous but is not essential. A strong equestrian background, excellent horse-handling skills and the right attitude are more important, as comprehensive training can be provided.

A full UK driving licence is essential.

About ROS Equine

ROS Equine is an independent ambulatory veterinary practice with a particular focus on equine sports medicine, lameness and performance.

Our work takes us from private yards and professional competition establishments to international competition environments, with clients throughout the UK and Europe.

This role would suit someone who wants to become genuinely involved in the day-to-day running of a progressive sports medicine practice rather than simply occupying a traditional support role.

There is significant opportunity to develop practical skills and experience in equine veterinary sports medicine and diagnostic imaging.

The Position

Full-time position

Based primarily in West Sussex, with extensive travel according to the veterinary diary.

Salary will be competitive and dependent upon experience.

The role will involve some early starts, late finishes and occasional overnight stays. Flexibility is therefore important, but equally we want the successful applicant to become a valued, long-term member of the ROS Equine team.

To Apply

Please send a CV and a short introduction about yourself, including your equestrian background and why you think the role would suit you.
