Qualified overseas veterinarians who hold the appropriate Australian veterinary registration, or who are eligible to obtain registration to practise in Australia, are strongly encouraged to enquire.

The practice is open to considering visa sponsorship for an experienced overseas veterinarian who meets the necessary registration requirements.

This could be an excellent opportunity for an international veterinarian looking to establish a long-term career in Australia, particularly for someone who values a supportive clinical environment, consistent working hours and a more relaxed regional lifestyle.

About the Role

The successful veterinarian will work within a 100% small-animal practice, managing a varied caseload across general medicine, surgery and preventative healthcare.

The role offers:

• $130,000–$150,000 + superannuation, depending on experience
• Monday to Friday, 9:00am–5:00pm
• No weekends
• No after-hours or on-call requirements
• Full-time employment
• Independently owned practice
• Supportive and experienced veterinary and nursing team

About the Clinic

The practice provides comprehensive small-animal veterinary care, including:

• General medical consultations
• Dentistry
• Diagnostic services
• Soft tissue and other surgical procedures
• Ultrasound
• Endoscopy
• Digital radiology
• In-house laboratory
• Dedicated surgical facilities

The extensive in-house facilities allow the team to manage a broad range of cases without relying heavily on external referral.

The successful veterinarian will work alongside an established team, including a senior veterinarian with more than 30 years of industry experience, as well as experienced veterinary nurses with particular interests in surgery, orthopaedics, neonatal care and senior pet medicine.

This creates an excellent environment for knowledge sharing, clinical support and ongoing professional development.
