Want to work with us?

 

At The Veterinary Content Company, we’re always looking for talented and passionate vets who want to help pet owners. Great veterinary writers have a thirst for knowledge, an empathy with owners, and excellent written communication skills.

Because all of our writers are freelance, it’s a flexible vet job, from an article a week to full-time work. You can become a vet writer around another job, around childcare, or because you want a change in career that still allows you to use your veterinary skills.

So, if this sounds like you, please get in touch so we can tell you more about how we work. We’ll want to see your CV and a short (300+ words) sample of writing suitable for a client.

Please note we are not currently hiring general writers. We’re very fortunate not to have a high turnover of writers so we now have a long waiting list of interested vets and no positions open!

If you have a further qualification (certificate etc) in an area of animal health then please feel free to get in touch. Similarly, if you have at least a year of writing experience alongside your veterinary degree, we’d like to hear from you.

Otherwise we recommend you follow us on LinkedIn, which is where we’ll announce any recruitment drive or open positions.

Veterinary writing courses

 

If you’re looking to become a veterinary writer or want to brush up your pet content skills, we regularly hold writing courses and webinars.

Next up is the ‘Content Marketing for Freelance Writers’ webinar, which will be live-streamed on Tues 27th May, midday (BST). Here’s the details:

As a freelance writer, you take a clients’ brief and turn it into an awesome article – but have you ever wondered what the point is? Why are they paying you to write? What do they get out of your content? By understanding your clients’ aims, you can do an even better job of writing. In this webinar, we’ll answer questions like:
  • What exactly is content marketing—and how is it different from copywriting or blogging?
  • How does my blog/article contribute to a company’s bigger marketing goals?
  • How can knowing the purpose of a piece help me write it better?
  • What kinds of questions should I ask clients to deliver better content?

The webinar will be £40. To register your interest and receive a course payment link, please fill out this form.

Or, to join the mailing list and find out about our on-demand courses or correspondence courses, please use this form.

We’ll cover subjects like:

  • The skills a good vet writer needs
  • Writing for readability
  • Writing for websites
  • SEO and AIO
  • Freelance skills and set up

P.S – want more support with becoming a freelance veterinary writer? We’re considering a month-long cohort correspondence course, with tasks and feedback, and access to a community of veterinary writers. It would contain 4x 1-hour sessions (one per week) in a small group and set tasks, which would be edited and returned with feedback to help you improve your writing. If this sounds more up your street, let us know – we’ll only run this if there’s enough interest!
