70% Small, 15% equine, 15% mixed animals.

We are seeking a veterinarian who will work well in a large, friendly and supportive team of vets and nurses that provide a high level of care to our patients.

The Position:

Well-supported position within a great team of 10 vets spread across two clinics
4 x 9.5 hour weekday shifts with one rostered weekday off, plus 1 in 4 Saturday morning shifts
1 in 7 weeknights on call plus 1 in 7 weekends on call
4 weeks annual leave plus one week paid study leave with a further $1500 CPD allowance

Both clinics comprehensively equipped with premium diagnostic and monitoring equipment.
Please click here to see photos!

Words from one of our Associate Vets:

We are one of the few clinics where is it possible to live in the "city" and do mixed animal practice
Our nurses are well-trained to look after us, not over-book and give us enough time for consults, phone calls and catch-ups. Lunchtimes and home-times are considered sacred, and we almost always get out on time. If you want to leave the clinic to go for a walk or pick up lunch at lunchtime, that is almost always possible.
Doing on-call is an opportunity to serve the local community, to gain unique experience, learn to think on your feet and see some cool cases, but we also have the ability to refer small animal emergencies to 24-hour centres so they can receive the best of care (which also means on-call isn't overly busy)
As we see such a variety of animals and cases, there is definitely the ability for vets to develop a special interest - anything from alpacas, or equine dentistry, or small animal behaviour. But otherwise, this is an awesome clinic to become a well-rounded mixed animal practitioner, with vets experienced in different areas to provide support and guidance.
Our large animal work is often for clients who keep a small number of these animals as pets, and so individual diagnostics and treatment are often pursued, but there is also the scope for doing some herd health work if vets are interested
We have the ability both to work-up and treat complicated cases in-house, and use travelling specialists, but also, we commonly refer and have excellent relationships with specialist centres
Our clients are generally excellent, usually very respectful and keen to do the best for their animals. As a small independent practice, we have many clients that have been coming to the clinic for decades and value the personalised care we can provide for their animals.
We are a very casual, friendly, chatty bunch. We work hard but have fun. The radio plays out the back. We often sit and have lunch together. The vet team are very supportive and approachable and share cases and ideas and ask each other for help commonly.

Please contact Andy Lynch at andrew.lynch@thevetsurgery.com.au or at the Yarrambat Veterinary Hospital 03 9436 1699 to register your interest or to further discuss the position.

KEYSBOROUGH, SOUTH EAST MELBOURNE - SMALL ANIMAL

Love strikes again at Keysborough Vet…

One of our vets is getting married and moving across town, and another will be going on maternity leave, so we are looking for a new vet, potentially two, to join our team. While full time hours are preferred, a part time position may be available for the right fit.

At Keysborough Vet Practice we believe that a trip to the vet should be a positive experience, both for clients and their pets, and even more importantly, for the staff who work here. We focus on providing quality veterinary care tailored to the individual pet and client.

Privately owned and run, we can provide flexibility and personal service that may not be possible with a corporate practice. There is no after hours requirement, we are lucky enough to be situated within easy reach of 2 emergency centres, however we are open 9-2 Saturdays, and there would be a requirement to share in the Saturday roster. Full time staff have a rostered long weekend the week after working a Saturday to try and maintain some balance. Sole charge is minimal, and we have regular discussions amongst vets about cases. The schedule includes blocked times for phone calls & follow up, lunch breaks, and sometimes even a mocktail Friday! Continuing education is supported & encouraged, and we have an hourly pay rate rather than salary, to ensure staff are paid for all the time they work. We have a fantastic nursing and reception team ready to support you as well.

If you’d like to come meet us and see if we could have the job you’re after, please send your application to nicole@keysivet.com.au

ARMADALE, INNER MELBOURNE - SMALL ANIMAL New Position

Experienced Veterinarian – Full-Time or Part-Time
Malvern Vet Hospital – Armadale, VIC

🏥 ASAVA Accredited Hospital of Excellence | 🐾 Supportive, Friendly Team | 💰 Excellent Remuneration

Are you an experienced veterinarian with a passion for gold-standard care? Join our our well-established, state-of-the-art hospital in Armadale, Victoria. Whether you're looking for part-time or full-time work, this is a fantastic opportunity to be part of a collaborative and caring environment.

What MVH offers. Why is that important to me?

Take a look at the photos! The place is beautiful. The heritage building with 12 foot ceilings, ceiling roses, leather couches and chandeliers in the waiting room. The purpose built treatment/hospital/surgical area out the back is impressively equipped and provides a smooth, easy work flow space. It’s a nice, open, feel good space to spend your day in.
Armadale location It’s a centrally located green leafy area with an affluent clientele – which for you means you don’t get the financial constraints restricting your patient care recommendations.
Accredited Hospital of Excellence since 1981 Accreditation ensures you that MVH practices to the high standards of care that you would be proud to put your professional reputation behind. When a hospital is accredited you know it’s not just the practice owner claiming gold standards are practiced – it’s proven by independent assessment from the AVA. Accreditation is not a common achievement. Currently only 13 practices in Victoria have managed to achieve this and none have achieved it consistently for 45 years – oh, except Malvern Vet has…
Independently owned Did you know that kookaburra surveys show that vets are 30% happier when they work for independent operators? 80% of vets working for independent operators reported being happy in kookaburras 2022 survey compared to a disappointing 50% who worked for corporate organisations. Interesting isn’t it? Independent management means no Corporate organisation telling you how to handle your own cases and no more red tape when you need changes or just to get things done.
10 vets 10 highly experienced professional veterinary minds (26 staff total) giving you opportunity to grow your own skills and knowledge through their own areas of expertise. One team member has imaging members and another to graduate with internal medicine members in May – MVH can offer professional growth, allowing you to get better all the time, every day- because that’s what life’s about.
Continuing Education Encouraged and supported This is something we not only encourage but actively promote and support. Want to do memberships and would like a financial commitment from your employer? – Talk to us! Interested in feline medicine, behaviour, dentistry, anaesthesia, radiology, surgery, medicine? We’re interested in investing in our staff.
Employer of choice accreditation Accredited through Lincoln, means the leadership team are working with you and for you- encouraging autonomy and focusing on creating an environment where everyone is happy, works well as a highly performing team, taking accountability without fear because the culture is safe to do so. We value laughter, learning and teamwork.
Well established (since 1956!) When you work for a practice that has been servicing it’s clientele for 70 years – you can be confident with your jobs security and that the practice is not going to close any time soon.
Long standing Reputation for a positive work culture The practice, over it’s nearly 70 years, has enjoyed a strong reputation for having a happy team. It’s something that the leadership focus on as our most important purpose. It’s not that we’ve never experienced any bumps, but when we do, we work hard to make sure we get back on track ensuring an engaged, purpose filled team.
Flexible Hours We’re offering either a part time or full time role, no public holidays or after hours, no splint shifts or painful rotating rosters.

ELTHAM, NORTH-EAST MELBOURNE - SMALL ANIMAL

🚨 Associate Veterinarian (Part-Time to Full-Time) 🚨
Location: Eltham Veterinary Practice, Eltham Victoria

Starts part-time with full-time potential, recent graduates welcome to apply

Do you thrive in a fast-paced environment where teamwork, compassion, and the occasional dog in a tutu are all part of the job? Are you the kind of vet who not only knows their stuff but actually cares - about patients, pet parents, and not leaving the surgery room light on? Then congratulations- you might be just what we’re looking for.

🏥 About Us:
At Eltham Veterinary Practice we’re not just a veterinary practice - we're a team powered by Respect, Teamwork, Compassion, Integrity, and High Standards. Basically, we try to be the kind of people our pets think we are. The award winning INDEPENDENT Eltham Veterinary Practice (EVP) is co-owned by Drs Steve Pryor and Gus Braniff and is located in the beautiful bushland suburb of Eltham.

We're growing, and we want someone who’s in it for the long haul - or at least has more staying power than Carlton.

Please click here to see photos!

🐾 What You’ll Be Doing:

Practicing excellent veterinary medicine with the backup of a supportive, snacks-stocked team
Building trust and rapport with clients - because you're not just treating animals, you're reassuring the people who love them
Handling everything from routine check-ups to “uh-oh, this just happened” emergencies
Switching tasks mid-sentence if needed (because yes, sometimes the cat sneezes and the dog throws up - at the same time)

✅ The Ideal You:

Friendly, warm, and honestly... honest
Hardworking with the stamina of a Labrador puppy on espresso
Naturally good at customer service and building genuine relationships (we like people who like people and pets)
Able to keep calm, manage time like a pro, and maintain grace under pressure - even if someone brought in a wombat with a bad attitude
Happy to take ownership of your role - you know what needs doing and you get it done
Willing to learn, open to feedback, and not afraid to ask questions (or laugh at Gus’s jokes)
Independent enough to work solo – (would do this rarely), but team-minded enough to back up your colleagues without being asked
Flexible when plans change (which they do… often… usually mid-coffee)

🎁 What You Get:

Competitive pay (we know what you’re worth)
A friendly, respectful team that actually likes working together
Flexible hours and a chance to grow into a full-time role
Weekly lunch bought by practice followed by 2 hour staff meeting/training session
Opportunities for ongoing learning - because we love curiosity
A workplace where your values really matter
The unofficial clinic motto: "Serious about medicine/surgery. Slightly less serious about everything else."

If you're ready to join a practice where respect is real, teamwork is tight, and we laugh at the chaos instead of crying about it, we’d love to hear from you.

📧 Send us your resume to steve@elthamvet.com.au, a short note about why this feels like your kind of place, and (optional but encouraged) any good jokes/memes.

Join our passionate team and be part of an exciting journey in veterinary care.
