SELETAR HILLS ESTATE, SINGAPORE - SMALL ANIMAL EXOTICS
New Position
Allpets & Aqualife Vet Clinic
www.allpetsaqualife.com
We are a well-established general practice in the north-eastern leafy suburbs of Singapore. We have an energetic and supportive team of 5 vets, with a nurse to vet ratio of 2:1. Our vets are graduates from Australia, Ireland and the UK, and within our support team are senior techs and experienced nurses.
We see to a large variety of small animal cases and a few exotics as well. While our patients range from furry to scaly to feathery, it is up to the candidate as to their comfort level of attending to exotics. We handle most soft tissue surgeries and have a wide and varied medicine caseload, which means chances for learning and sharing are high as well.
Please click here to see photos!
The clinic is located in a largely affluent neighbourhood, and our clientele are generally friendly and reasonable. All our vets are driven by a similar work ethic and believe in doing good by our colleagues, clients and patients. We occasionally meet clients who are unable to afford gold standard care, but when they are forthcoming, and if we can help, we do.
The ideal candidate will have good communication skills, sound leadership qualities, and is a team player. They are keen to develop more skills and open to exploring new horizons. They are empathetic and compassionate towards owners as well as their pets.
An experienced candidate is preferred; however, new and recent graduates are also welcome to apply. New graduates will be rostered alongside experienced colleagues and receive all-round support. There are avenues for the candidate to grow with the practice.
The salary package offered will be commensurate with experience and skill set. The salary is highly competitive - in the range of SGD60,000 to $150,000 for a basic 4-day week- before bonuses.
Taxation is low (about 10%) in Singapore, which means the candidate will take home more at the end of the day. A relocation package is available for overseas candidates.
CPD is encouraged and supported.
Our principal has a Masters in Aquatic Studies from the University of Stirling and has been published for discovering fish diseases. He has worked with sea mammals, including dolphins, for most of his career and is a wildlife and exotics enthusiast.
Our other clinic director completed a year-long certificate in Ultrasound and has been performing ultrasounds for more than a decade.
Our equipment includes the Idexx full suite, digital xray, ultrasound, rigid and flexible scopes, tonometry, BP doppler, fluid pumps, etc.
The practice is open for consultations Mondays to Fridays, 9.30am-1pm and 3-7.30pm. On Saturdays, we close at 5.30pm. We are closed on Sundays and public holidays. After-hours calls at the clinic occur zero to two times a month, on average. Commission is paid on these ad hoc calls. Vets are also paid a commission for after-hours wildlife field calls if it interests them to be involved.
Being non-corporate, we have the bandwidth to be more flexible with work arrangements.
Singapore is safe and has a stable economy, with a perennial sunny climate, and you will have easy access to Southeast Asia’s beautiful beaches and landscapes. Vehicles are expensive to own in Singapore. However, you will find the public transport system to be highly accessible and efficient. We also have a company van used for work that staff may borrow for special occasions like outings to the beach, for example.
Our vets are happy to chat with any interested candidates. Please contact Winnie at admin@allpetsaqualife.com if you wish to know more about the position.

In order to achieve this targeted professional development, Free the Bears is recruiting two Consulting Veterinarians, one to join our Cambodia Programme and the other to join the Laos Programme. On a day-to-day basis, the Cambodia Programme Consulting Veterinarian will work as part of a team of veterinarians overseeing the health of around 120 rescued bears in the Cambodia Bear Sanctuary, which sits within Phnom Tamao Wildlife Rescue Centre in Cambodia.

Here is what our lovely nurse Brie has to say about working for AMV:
“I have been working at AMV for over 6 years now, I could not imagine working anywhere else. We truly are a little family, yes it may sound cheesy, but the team are not only here to support me, but we have all become lifelong friends. Being mobile is completely different to being in clinic, I love it and would choose being mobile over being in clinic any day. I thrive on the day-to-day challenges, personal rapport building with clients, driving around the sights of Sydney, and finding new cafes for lunch or a coffee is a bonus.
Our service is tailored and offers a personable consultation in their own home or in our fully decked out mobile consultation van, overall providing our client’s and patients a more relaxed and happier vet visit. I love the mobile vet lifestyle it is accommodating and well suited for every vet and nurse. P.S if we finish our consultations earlier than expected we get to go home instead of cleaning for hours on end #worklifebalance.”
As we continue to grow & add to the family, Petstock Group was formed....acknowledging our history, where we’ve come from and all we have achieved...we have now come together for the pets that inspire us! We are all about...People, Pets & Planet

- Excellent time management, organisational skills, and great record keeping skills
- Ability to work well with a team and independently
