01How we work

A one-time project, scoped and priced up front. You know the cost before we start.

Every project begins with a free 30-minute health check, so we learn your practice before we quote. From there the work is defined in writing: what is included, what is deliberately not, and a fixed price for all of it.

No retainers are required and no meters run. When the project is done it is handed over with everything your team needs to use it from day one.

02The projects

The work, project by project.

Each one stands alone, each one fixed-quoted. Scroll through the four.

01 Most popular starting point

HR health check and fix

We review your contracts, policies, rotas and people processes against where a UK veterinary practice should be, then fix what the review finds. You get a plain-English report first: what is fine, what is risky, what is urgent.

  • Free 30-minute health check conversation to start
  • Written findings you keep, whatever you decide
  • A fixed quote for the fix, item by item
02

Policy suite creation

The policies a veterinary practice actually needs, written for your practice rather than adapted from an office template. Delivered ready to host in the policy library or your own filing.

  • Veterinary-specific, including OOH and clinical settings
  • Plain English your team will actually read
  • Versioned so future updates slot in cleanly
03

Contract drafting and review

Employment contracts for vets, RVNs, receptionists and practice managers, plus casual and freelance arrangements, drafted or reviewed role by role. Full detail on the contracts page.

  • Role-appropriate terms, not one template for everyone
  • Review of what you have, or drafting from scratch
  • Clear flags where a solicitor is genuinely needed
04

Restructure support

Changing hours, roles or team shape is where small practices get hurt. We plan the process, prepare the paperwork and support the conversations, so change happens fairly and cleanly.

  • Process mapped before anyone is spoken to
  • Consultation documents prepared properly
  • Support through each step, at your pace
03How a fixed-fee engagement runs

You will always know the price before the work.

Scope, quote, deliver. Three steps, nothing hidden in between.

1

Scope

We agree exactly what the project covers, in writing. The free health check usually does this job for first projects.

2

Quote

A fixed price for the defined scope. If the scope changes mid-project, the quote is revised in writing before any extra work happens.

3

Deliver

The work is done, reviewed with you, and handed over with everything your practice needs to use it from day one.

04Who delivers it
Specialists in one industry. Yours.

The questions that make generalists pause are our everyday work.

Vet HR works exclusively with UK veterinary practices. Out-of-hours fairness, casual nurse contracts, freelance vet arrangements and clinical incident trails are not edge cases to us. They are the day job.

We are also the team behind the staff systems running in daily use at a real UK practice, which keeps our advice practical: see the case study.

Good to know Consultancy and documentation, not a law firm

Where you genuinely need a solicitor, we say so plainly.

Vet HR provides HR consultancy and documentation support. We are not a law firm, and where a matter genuinely needs regulated legal advice, we say so plainly and help you brief the right person.

  • Plain-English advice, not legalese
  • Honest flags the moment regulated legal advice is needed
  • A practical hand briefing the right person
05One-time or ongoing

A defined project, or a partner on call.

Start with a fixed-price project. Move to ongoing support whenever it suits your practice.
