Abbatoir Vet

What qualifications and work experience etc, would you need to become an abbatoir vet?

Thank you

Thank you for your reply. Is there anyway of becoming an abbatoir vet without having a veterinary degree?

I studied A - levels, but didn’t do science subjects and therefore wondering if there were any other routes enter the subject? Thanks

um sorry but why do you want to become an abattoir vet with no science or vet med background?? that's like a serial killer backstory

You can work in an abattoir and you can be a meat hygiene inspector which does some of the roles an abattoir vet does but you cannot become an abattoir vet without a degree (you need to be registered to RCVS).

Ah okay, thank you, I’ve had a few different career ideas and just wondering qualifications wise. Thanks for the reply.

I’m a current vet student so if you need any help with related careers I might be able to help you!

So if I was looking into doing this type of role without a vet degree, would it be best to go into the role would it be like meat hygiene inspector? I really fancied doing a vet degree just didn’t have the right qualifications. How would you do about being hygiene inspector? Thanks for the help!
