And our mobilisation of the top talent needed to manage the massively changed vet check and certification regime for UK meat exports to the EU from 1^st January has gone into overdrive; taking delivery of a batch of SKODA UK Fabias ready for our November intake of skilled vets and MHIs.

It is the first of some 350 fleet vehicles over the next 12 months in a renewed partnership with Volkswagen Financial Services Fleet, as we bring crucial support to the British meat industry, post-Brexit. A dozen cars arrived in Leeds, with more for our new MHIS in Northern Ireland as a three-year contract with DAERA got underway.

If you are passionate about animal health, animal welfare, food safety and public health, please get in touch as we are hiring plant and export OVs, MHIs, PIAs and CSOs. We also need central support staff and apprentices.

High calibre professionals are currently joining us from many countries – and we will be hosting five more of our internationally renowned information webinars on 5^th November – this time for Spanish, Romanian, Portuguese, Polish and Italian veterinarians. Sign up here.
