NARRE WARREN, SOUTH-EAST MELBOURNE, VIC - SMALL ANIMAL/EMERGENCY, ECC

Experienced Veterinarian – Emergency & Critical Care

Full-time or Part-time | Casey Pet Emergency | South-East Melbourne

Good medicine, interesting cases, great people — and room to build the role around what you do best.

Casey Pet Emergency is looking for an experienced veterinarian to join our team of 11 full and part-time vets at our privately owned emergency and critical care hospital in South-East Melbourne.

Ideally, we'd love to find a senior emergency veterinarian who is ready for their next step and wants a role with genuine clinical scope, autonomy and career potential.

For the right person, we are absolutely prepared to invest in the role and create a meaningful progression pathway around your experience, strengths and longer-term goals.

We're also very open to experienced GP or ECC vets with 3+ years in practice who have strong foundations and want to sharpen their emergency skills, broaden their case exposure and grow into a confident ECC clinician with plenty of support around them.

Full-time or part-time opportunities.

Build the role around your strengths

Not every great emergency vet loves exactly the same part of the job — and that's fine.

We can offer roles with a mix of consulting, hospital and procedural shifts, giving you variety across emergency intake, inpatient case management, procedures and surgery.

Prefer a broader mix? Great.

Much stronger in one area and keen to lean into it? We're also open to working shifts around your strengths.

The aim is to create a role that works for both the hospital and the clinician and provides flexibility for other important aspects of life and family.

A place to grow clinically

CPE offers the case variety, infrastructure and clinical support to keep experienced vets progressing.

Our caseload is genuinely varied and includes emergency medicine, critical care, trauma, toxicity, acute medical presentations and surgery.

If surgery floats your fancy, there is plenty of opportunity to stay hands-on.

If complex medicine and inpatient management is more your thing, there is no shortage of that either.

You'll be working alongside experienced veterinarians and highly trained emergency nurses, with a strong emphasis on good communication, thoughtful case management and excellent patient outcomes.

Strong support. Strong clinical culture.

We want CPE to be somewhere you keep evolving, not somewhere you simply fill a roster.

Our vets have access to:

For an experienced GP moving toward emergency medicine, this means you're not expected to magically become an ECC vet overnight.

You'll work alongside clinicians who can help you develop confidence in emergency decision-making, acute case management, procedures, surgery and critical care.

For a senior ER vet, there is room to bring experience to the team, influence clinical standards and potentially build toward a more senior clinical or leadership role.

Modern hospital. Proper equipment.

Our purpose-built emergency hospital has been designed around efficient workflow and high-quality patient care.

We continue to invest in sophisticated, modern monitoring and treatment equipment, with ongoing investment in state-of-the-art capability where it meaningfully improves patient care.

Our facilities include:

And importantly, the equipment is backed by trained emergency nurses who are actively involved in advanced patient care, monitoring, anaesthesia, diagnostics and procedures.

Please click here to see photos! photos

Good systems make busy medicine better

Emergency work will always have busy moments. Good workflow makes a massive difference.

We've invested in systems and processes that help cases move smoothly from triage through diagnostics, hospitalisation, treatment, handover and discharge.

Our multimodal workflow includes:

The focus is on reducing unnecessary admin, improving communication between vets and nurses and giving clinicians more time to actually think about their patients.

Flexible, but with enough structure to make it work

We are open to both full-time and part-time positions.

You might want regular days every week, a predictable part-time arrangement or a broader shift-work role.

Typical shifts are around 8–10 hours.

We do need some weekend availability, generally around 2 in 3 Saturdays or alternate weekends, depending on the role and final roster structure.

Pay will reflect your experience, capability, role responsibilities and availability.

What's in it for you?

We're big enough to offer the caseload, equipment and team support of a serious emergency hospital, while still being independently owned and flexible enough to shape opportunities around good people.

Who are we looking for?

You'll need to be registered or eligible for veterinary registration in Victoria.

Our ideal candidate is either:

Previous ECC experience is highly regarded, but what matters most is strong clinical judgement, curiosity, communication, teamwork and a genuine desire to provide excellent patient care.

Interested?

Send your CV or a short expression of interest to:

Who We Are

ACES is a new purpose-built emergency and specialist referral centre in Perth's Northern Suburbs. We are proudly independent, locally owned, and deeply connected to our community.

If you are passionate about high-level medicine, value teamwork, and want to work in a place where your expertise and wellbeing truly matter, ACES may be the hospital you've been looking for.

Why ACES?

ACES has been thoughtfully designed by two ECC specialists who genuinely love this work.

ECC is fast-paced, challenging, and incredibly rewarding, but it can also be demanding. At ACES, we recognise this reality and have intentionally built systems, workflows, and support structures that help clinicians thrive.

Support is practical and meaningful - from access to criticalist input on complex cases, to appropriate staffing and a genuinely kind, collaborative, and non-judgmental team culture. We understand that everyone experiences moments of overwhelm, and we believe good support should be available before it is needed.

Melissa and Elodie are also deeply passionate about teaching and mentorship. With extensive experience supporting students, interns, residents, and ECC clinicians, they are committed to helping team members develop confidence, clinical judgement, and advanced skills. Whether you are early in your ECC career or looking to refine your expertise, you will be supported to grow in the way that best suits you.
