ECVAA Standard Residency in Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia Toulouse, France Posted 22 Days Ago
ECVAA Standard Residency in Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia
École Nationale Vétérinaire de Toulouse (ENVT), France
The National Veterinary School of Toulouse (ENVT) invites applications for a Standard ECVAA Residency in Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia, starting in January 2027.
This 3-year residency programme is designed to provide comprehensive specialist training in veterinary anaesthesia, analgesia and perioperative medicine, fulfilling the requirements established by the European College of Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia (ECVAA) and preparing the successful candidate for the ECVAA Diploma examination.
About ENVT
Founded in 1825, the National Veterinary School of Toulouse is the oldest higher education institution in Toulouse and one of the four French National Veterinary Schools. ENVT is a leading public veterinary institution under the French Ministry of Agriculture, Food Sovereignty and Forestry, internationally recognised for its excellence in veterinary education, clinical services and research.
Research activities are conducted in collaboration with INRAE, INSERM, and the University of Toulouse, providing residents with an outstanding academic environment and excellent opportunities for scientific development.
Located on a beautiful 54-hectare campus only a few kilometres from the centre of Toulouse, ENVT combines a dynamic university hospital with an exceptional quality of life. The school maintains numerous international collaborations and exchange programmes, offering a stimulating and multicultural environment for postgraduate training.
The Residency Programme
The residency is supervised by Dr Caroline Didier, DVM, Diplomate ECVAA, within the Anaesthesia Unit of the ENVT Veterinary Teaching Hospital.
Residents will receive comprehensive clinical training in anaesthesia, analgesia and perioperative care across multiple species while progressively developing autonomy under specialist supervision.
The Anaesthesia Department currently comprises three faculty members, including one ECVAA Diplomate, two ECVAA residents, three junior clinicians, dedicated anaesthesia nursing staff and close collaboration with all clinical services.
Clinical responsibilities include:
- Small animal anaesthesia and analgesia
- Anaesthesia for exotic species, with a particularly large caseload of rabbits and other companion exotic mammals
- Equine and ruminant anaesthesia
- Wildlife anaesthesia
- Perioperative pain management and critical patient care
- Clinical teaching and supervision of undergraduate veterinary students
The diversity of species and procedures performed at ENVT provides excellent exposure to anaesthetic management across a broad spectrum of veterinary medicine.
The residency includes anaesthesia externships as an integral component of the programme, allowing residents to broaden their clinical experience especially in species and procedures for which our caseload is less extensive.
Residents will also participate in research activities, scientific meetings, journal clubs and continuing professional development throughout the programme. They will be expected to complete the scholarly requirements established by the ECVAA, including research leading to publication in peer-reviewed journals.
Candidates requirements
Applicants must:
- Have a veterinary degree and be licensed to practice veterinary medicine and surgery in Europe.
- Have successfully completed either a rotating internship or an equivalent postgraduate clinical training.
- Demonstrate a strong interest in veterinary anaesthesia, analgesia and perioperative medicine.
- Possess excellent communication skills and enjoy working within a collaborative academic environment.
- Demonstrate proficiency in English, which is essential for the ECVAA certification process. French proficiency is not required although it is strongly recommended for day-to-day clinical activities and teaching.
Applications should include:
- A letter of intent
- A curriculum vitae
- Proof of veterinary degree and internship completion (or documentation of equivalent clinical experience)
- Two letters of reference
Application deadline: 31 August 2026.
For further information or to submit an application, please contact Dr Caroline Didier (caroline.didier@envt.fr) and Dr Geraldine Jourdan (geraldine.jourdan@envt.fr).
We’re growing, and we’re looking for an experienced small animal anaesthetist to join us at Granta Veterinary Specialists.
We’re an independent, vet-owned referral hospital just outside Cambridge. We like keeping things straightforward: great medicine, great people, and as little unnecessary bureaucracy as possible.
You’ll be joining two Specialist anaesthetists and an experienced team of five anaesthesia nurses, working alongside clinicians who genuinely enjoy discussing cases, sharing ideas and helping each other out. We take our patients seriously, but not ourselves.
The role
You’ll provide anaesthetic care for a varied and interesting referral caseload across multiple disciplines, from routine procedures through to some of the most complex cases we see.
This role would suit someone who enjoys working autonomously but values having experienced colleagues to bounce ideas off when needed.
You’ll:
- Deliver high-quality anaesthetic care across a busy referral caseload.
- Work closely with our Specialists and nursing team.
- Support and develop our talented anaesthesia nurses.
- Take part in the out-of-hours anaesthesia rota (up to 1 in 4).
About you
You are eligible to live and work in UK. You’ll have referral-level experience in small animal anaesthesia and be comfortable taking ownership of your cases.
Just as importantly, you’ll enjoy working as part of a team. We’re looking for someone who’s approachable, generous with their knowledge and committed to doing the right thing for patients and colleagues alike.
If collaboration matters more to you than hierarchy, and you’d rather spend your energy on clinical work than unnecessary processes, you’ll probably fit in well here.
Why Granta?
We’re proudly independent and vet-owned, which means decisions are made by clinicians, not shareholders.
You’ll work in a purpose-built referral hospital with excellent facilities, an experienced multidisciplinary team and plenty of genuinely interesting cases. We invest in people, encourage new ideas and give you the freedom to develop your role.
And yes, there is a coffee machine and fruit subscription.
Alongside that you’ll receive:
- Competitive salary.
- Generous CPD support.
- Pension and private healthcare.
- Relocation support if you’re moving to the area.
We’re based just outside Cambridge, giving you easy access to one of the UK’s most vibrant cities while still enjoying plenty of green space and excellent transport links.
Interested?
If you’d like an informal chat or would like to apply, we’d love to hear from you.
