Recruitment and retention under spotlight at BEVA Congress
“Vets are under increasing pressures, not least given the shortage of vets to the public" - Hugh Griffiths, BEVA president.
Professor Brad Hill will deliver the findings of a recent survey. 

The British Equine Veterinary Association (BEVA) will reveal the findings of a recent recruitment and retention survey at its 60th congress, taking place 7-10 September in Liverpool.

During BEVA president Hugh Griffiths’ presidential year, a primary focus has been on recruitment and retention in the equine industry - and the subject will go under spotlight at the ACC Liverpool arena next month.

Mr Griffiths said: “Vets are under increasing pressures, not least given the shortage of vets to the public. And retention, despite perceived ‘good packages’, appears to be in decline.

“Analysis of our survey results will help us to better comprehend what the landscape looks like and how best to address it for the short and longer terms. A fundamental key is to understand how to maximise the satisfaction and longevity of vets within our industry.”

University of Nottingham Professor Brad Hill will present the survey results on behalf of Mr Griffiths on Friday afternoon.

Mr Griffiths added: “Brad has supported BEVA in various ways, including via his podcasts and is indeed a champion of helping equine vets be their best self.”

Brad will be joined by Amy Grice, a world leader in the scientific evaluation of recruitment and retention in equine veterinary practice. Amy will share her considerable knowledge at the Congress on Friday, 9 September.

Amy’s work comapres different generations of equine vets, the interactions between these generations, and the opportunities and failures that arise from this. Her speciality lies in the understanding of graduates from generation Z, who are the future of the profession.
