BERWICK, SOUTH-EAST MELBOURNE - SMALL ANIMAL, PART TIME
PART-TIME SMALL ANIMAL VETERINARIAN WANTED
Come hang out with Team Leroy -
Maybe you're returning to work after starting a family.
Maybe you already have a job you love but wouldn't mind picking up an extra day here and there.
Maybe full-time veterinary life is absolutely not what you're looking for anymore.
Maybe you've taken a break from practice and are ready to dip a toe back in.
Or maybe you just really enjoy working Saturdays.
(Okay… that last one might be a stretch. But we live in hope!)
Whatever the reason, Berwick Veterinary Hospital is looking for a part-time veterinarian to join our team, including participation in our rotating Saturday roster.
We're not looking for someone to fit neatly into a pre-designed box. If you're a great vet, a good human and looking for a role that fits around the rest of your life, we'd love to have a chat.
What could the role look like?
We're flexible.
It may be:
- A regular weekday or two each week
- A handful of shifts each month
- Saturdays plus some additional days
- A return-to-work arrangement while you find your feet again
- Extra work alongside your existing role
The one thing we do need is someone who can participate in our rotating Saturday roster.
Our Saturday team works across our Berwick and Narre Warren clinics, with Narre Warren open 8:30am–12:30pm, before the team joins Berwick and works there until 4:00pm.
And no — we're not expecting you to sacrifice every weekend forever. That's why there's a roster!
About us
Berwick Veterinary Hospital is a busy, independently owned Accredited Hospital of Excellence, with a genuinely lovely team of vets, nurses and support staff.
We take our medicine seriously.
Ourselves? Considerably less so.
You'll have access to a well-equipped hospital, interesting cases, experienced colleagues to bounce ideas off and a nursing team who are exceptionally capable — and will probably know where the thing you're looking for is before you've finished asking.
We value collaboration, kindness, good communication and people who are happy to help each other out.
There's no expectation that you know everything, do everything or magically survive veterinary medicine powered solely by caffeine.
You might be perfect for us if…
- You're an experienced vet wanting fewer hours.
- You're a parent looking to return to the profession in a way that actually works around family life.
- You're already working elsewhere but would love an additional regular shift.
- You've had some time away from clinical practice and want a supportive environment to return to.
- You're looking for better work-life balance.
- Or you simply want to work with a genuinely great bunch of humans without committing your entire week to us.
We're open to different levels of experience and happy to shape the position around the right person.
Most importantly, we want someone who is kind, capable, collaborative and enjoys being part of a team.
If this sounds like it might suit you — even if you're not quite sure whether your availability fits — please get in touch anyway.
Sometimes the right arrangement starts with a conversation.

THORNBURY, INNER CITY MELBOURNE - SMALL ANIMAL
Full-time or Part-time Veterinarian | Thornbury Veterinary Hospital | Inner Melbourne
Are you an experienced vet who loves what you do, thrives in a bustling practice and genuinely enjoys building relationships with clients and their pets?
If so, we'd love to meet you!
We're open to welcoming one full-time veterinarian or two part-time veterinarians, depending on the right fit for our team.
We're a thriving practice with a loyal client base, a varied and interesting caseload, and a team that genuinely enjoys working together. Our days are full, and rarely dull — but that's part of what makes general practice so rewarding!
We pride ourselves on providing excellent veterinary care while building lasting relationships with our clients and their much-loved pets.
What's waiting for you?
- Two hours free from scheduled consultations every weekday. We deliberately set aside a two-hour block in the middle of each weekday without scheduled consultations - allowing time for hospital patients, case management, callbacks and other clinical responsibilities, and this also means you always get your designated lunch break
- A genuinely collaborative environment. We're a team that shares knowledge, discusses cases and supports one another. We value everyone's experience and believe great veterinary medicine is a team effort.
- An amazing nursing team! Our experienced, capable and supportive nurses are an integral part of everything we do. They're skilled, proactive and genuinely committed to helping our vets deliver great patient care. You'll be working alongside a team that genuinely makes your working day easier.
- Extra support in the consult room. Our consulting veterinarians share a veterinary assistant (VA) nurse to assist with consultations, patient handling and minor procedures, helping keep things running smoothly.
- Plenty of variety in your working week. Enjoy a mix of different shifts where no two days are quite the same.
- Great clients and interesting cases. We have a loyal client base who value our advice and genuinely care about their pets, along with plenty of variety to keep your clinical brain engaged.
- The opportunity to be their vet. Build relationships, follow your patients over time and experience the satisfaction of providing continuity of care.
Who are we looking for?
We're looking for an experienced veterinarian who is confident in general practice, comfortable working across consulting, surgery and hospital duties, and enjoys the energy and variety of a bustling clinic.
Just as importantly, we're looking for someone who:
- Genuinely enjoys working with people and understands that great client relationships are just as important as great veterinary medicine.
- Communicates with warmth, empathy and confidence, helping clients feel informed, supported and comfortable with their pet's care.
- Is organised, adaptable and able to manage their caseload while maintaining a high standard of patient care.
- Takes ownership of their cases, including treatment plans, communication and follow-ups.
- Enjoys collaborating with colleagues, sharing knowledge and contributing to a positive team environment.
- Is approachable, supportive and happy to lend a hand wherever needed.
We value clinical experience, but we also know that the way you connect with clients, care for your patients and work with your team is what makes a truly great vet.
Sound like your kind of practice?
We'd love to hear from you!
Send us your CV and a few lines about yourself and what you're looking for in your next role.
We'd love to have a chat and tell you more about what makes Thornbury Veterinary Hospital a great place to work.

CLYDE NORTH, SOUTH-EAST MELBOURNE - SMALL ANIMAL
Experienced Vets who love solving problems as much as they love helping pets… will really love this…
Get a thrill from untangling tricky medical cases - the kind that feel more like a Rubik's Cube than a routine consult?
Pride yourself on being the vet who sees the whole picture - the patterns others miss?
Imagine a clinic where puzzle-solvers, clear thinkers, and whole-animal clinicians are not just welcomed… but valued!
Welcome to Clyde Veterinary Hospital.
An independently owned clinic led by Dr Irene and her Husband, Albert.
Dr Irene is a veterinarian who treats every patient like a puzzle worth solving properly... She's known for:
- Practising the right medicine (not the rushed, checkbox version)
- Taking a nose-to-tail, holistic approach in every consult;
- Asking “why?” more often than “what's the fastest fix?”;
- Loving the medical cases that make other vets quietly back away.
If you're wired the same way… you'll understand.
The Rubik's Cube Philosophy…
- Some clinics want speed…
- Some want volume…
- Clyde Vet wants to solve the problem so all the colours line up!
- Every case is kinda like a Rubik's cube…
- There's a pattern beneath the surface…
- There's an order to the chaos…
- And with patience, curiosity, and the right thinking… the colours click into place.
- This isn't “five-minute consults and call us if there is a problem.”
- This is a clinic where you get the right amount of time and support to solve things that matter.
You'll be right at home here if you…
- Thrive on GP medicine, diagnostics, and working cases through
- Love the process of solving — not just the outcome
- Enjoy general practice where every day brings something new
- Feel confident in your clinical judgment
- Values communication, clarity, and honesty
- Align naturally with our values:
Initiative — you take ownership
Accountability — you follow through
Compassion — you care deeply
Positivity — you bring calm, not chaos
Teamwork — you collaborate, not compete
Most importantly, for our clients, you want to practise real, thoughtful, whole-animal medicine… without compromise.
Why would you choose to join our team..?
This is not another job ad full of clichés.
You won't find any tired lines about “gold standard care”, “state-of-the-art equipment”, or “great coffee nearby.”

We are looking for a 1-3 Veterinarians to join our 10 Vet, 23 nurse team. We have a mix of full time and part time staff with a couple of vets who work every now and then (maternity leave/other jobs etc..). Experience is required, however recent graduates are also welcome to apply. For recent graduates, a years experience would be the minimum, as whilst there is lots of support and back up provided, the job is not a new graduate training position. Vets are based at the 2 practices which are within 5km of each other. Applicants will work at one or both practices and work with at least one or two other experienced veterinarians, and 4-5 nurses at Maribyrnong, and 1 other experienced veterinarian and 3-4 nurses at Avondale Heights. We do our rosters 4 weeks in advance for 3 month blocks so the position can suit someone who has jobs elsewhere/locum work etc… and wants to forward plan their lives. Any day of the week can be worked by mutual arrangement, and the long term rostering allows for this flexibility.
About us:
Maribyrnong is open 7 days per week, whilst Avondale Heights is open 5 weekdays and 3 hours on a Saturday morning. Our nurses routinely take bloods, place catheters, perform radiographs, write clinical notes etc… Nearly all staff rotate between the 2 practices. PMS is Customerlogic which is super user friendly; we have DR xray, CR dental, capnographs, bear huggers, dental base, bp, inhouse path, and great referral services locally as well as visiting medical consultants and specialist surgeons on an approximate weekly visiting basis. A dedicated off-site Vet looks after our HR, and external payroll takes care of all things wage related.

No after hours. Daily lunch super important, so too coffee/chai/ English breakfast/green tea with or without jasmine and hot chocolate. There is a great cafe next door, and inhouse foodie and hot/cold beverage culture desired, but not essential. We try to make our workplaces as comfortable and stress free as possible, with plenty of staff on to do the job at all times, and pride ourselves on great customer care, a friendly supportive working environment and great Veterinary service. Naughty clients are weeded out….
The position description applicant requirements
An ability to work independently (but support is always around). For those less experienced, common sense to ask when not sure, teamwork and most importantly being nice and friendly.
Salary to be negotiated based on experience. All usual entitlements included and stated in the workplace agreement/contract. All interviews will be held at Maribyrnong Vet on either Mondays or Thursdays, and at 12pm or 12:30pm by mutual arrangement.

We are looking for an equine veterinarian to join our team.
About us
Elite Equine Veterinarians is an ambulatory practice based in Macclesfield, at the gateway to the Yarra Valley wine region and the Dandenong Ranges.

NARRE WARREN, SOUTH-EAST MELBOURNE - 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:
- Regular Vet Education Rounds
- Internal case reviews
- Case-based learning
- Ongoing veterinary and nursing CE
- Mentorship from experienced clinicians
- Structured systems and processes to support clinical progression and governance
- Opportunities to develop interests in ECC, surgery, imaging, critical care, education or leadership through additional CE opportunities.
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:
- Dedicated ICU and critical care areas
- Veta 5 anaesthetic machines with full capnography and ventilation capacity
- Dehumidified oxygen chambers
- Digital radiography
- Updated ultrasound and imaging modalities
- CT and VetCT external radiologist interpretation support
- Comprehensive on site lab suite, istatt blood gases, coags and Zoetis AI cytology
- Endoscopy
And importantly, the equipment is backed by trained emergency nurses who are actively involved in advanced patient care, monitoring, anaesthesia, diagnostics and procedures.

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:
- ezyVet
- SmartFlow
- Modeus
- Abaxis
- VetCT
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?
- 5 weeks annual leave plus annual leave loading
- Generous conference and continuing education benefits
- Apple MacBook Air
- Regular Vet Rounds
- Internal case-based learning and clinical reviews
- Ongoing mentorship
- Highly trained nursing support
- Flexible full-time or part-time options
- Genuine scope to tailor the clinical mix of your role
- Clear opportunities for clinical progression
- A privately owned hospital where decisions can be made locally and good ideas can actually go somewhere
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:
- An experienced senior emergency veterinarian looking for their next clinical or career opportunity, or
- A 3+ year experienced GP or ECC veterinarian with strong foundations who wants to grow further into emergency and critical care
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?

BERWICK, SOUTH-EAST MELBOURNE - SMALL ANIMAL, CLINICAL LEAD New Position
LEAD VETERINARIAN – BERWICK VETERINARY HOSPITAL
⚠️ WARNING:
Reading this may trigger the irresistible urge to rethink your career.
Caution: This role contains dangerously high levels of job satisfaction, team banter, actual lunch breaks… and a genuine seat at the leadership table.
Stop scrolling at your own risk.
To the Vet Who's Seen a Few Things — and Led a Few Too,
If you've already clocked a few years in practice, stepped into leadership, and you're looking for a role where you can have a real say in how a clinic runs — we might be the right fit.
At Berwick Veterinary Hospital, we're a proudly independent, ASAV-accredited GP practice that's been trusted by the local community for over 30 years.
Our clients stick with us, our team does too, and our caseload keeps things interesting without breaking your soul.
We're now looking for an experienced Lead Veterinarian to help guide the next chapter of Team Leroy.
And yes — you'll still get to be a vet.
What You'll Be Walking Into:
You'll be a genuine part of our leadership team, working alongside our Business Manager, Clinical Operations Coordinator and business owner.
Together, you'll help drive the clinic from all angles — clinical standards, patient care, client service, team culture, operations and business performance.
You'll lead and develop the vet team, support difficult cases and clients, help improve systems and workflows, and have the autonomy to make decisions and get things moving.
There's plenty of support around you — but we're also looking for someone confident enough to take ownership and lead independently.
Our Version of Work-Life Balance:
- Full-time = four 10-hour days
- Work 36 hours per week, get paid for 38
- No on-call
- No Sundays
- No public holidays. Ever.
- Rotating Saturday roster, finishing at 4pm
- Work a Saturday? Enjoy the long weekend
- Need a bit of flexibility? Let's talk. Life doesn't always fit neatly into a roster.
Support & Growth, Minus the Fluff
You'll have a leadership team around you who genuinely wants your input.
You'll also have:
- Generous CPD support
- Study leave
- AVA membership
- Regular in-clinic training
- A well-equipped hospital
- A highly experienced nursing team
- Dedicated vet/nurse pairing for continuity, collaboration and sanity
- A dedicated receptionist who somehow knows exactly when the team needs a sugar hit
Who Are We Looking For?
This one does need some experience behind it.
We're looking for someone with:
- Several years of small animal veterinary experience
- Previous experience in a Lead Vet, Head Vet or similar leadership role
- Strong general practice clinical and surgical skills
- Experience mentoring, managing and developing vets
- Confidence managing clients, cases and the occasional difficult conversation
- An understanding of how a veterinary hospital works beyond the consult room
You don't need to know everything.
But you do need to be someone people trust, respect and feel comfortable coming to.
Someone who can support the team, make decisions, hold standards, and still have a laugh when the day inevitably goes sideways.
We Value What You Value
Good medicine. Great patient care. Loyal clients. A strong team culture. A sustainable business.
And ideally, a workplace people actually enjoy turning up to.
We're not chasing unicorns — we've got plenty of those.
Just a great vet, a great leader, and a good human.
Ready? Let's do this.

AEC Mount Waverley is seeking a passionate veterinarian with exotics experience to establish and grow our dedicated Exotics Department. This is a unique opportunity to combine your clinical expertise with genuine influence, helping define the future of exotic animal medicine within a well-established 24/7 emergency & critical case hospital.
Why AEC Mount Waverley?
AEC Mount Waverley has been providing exceptional emergency veterinary care to Melbourne's eastern suburbs for decades. Operating 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, the hospital is trusted by local veterinarians and pet owners alike to provide high-quality emergency and critical care when it matters most. The hospital is equipped with advanced diagnostic capabilities, including imaging, laboratory services, ultrasound, endoscopy, isolation facilities, and comprehensive emergency care resources, allowing our teams to deliver outstanding patient outcomes.
Our collaborative team of veterinarians and nurses work together in a fast-paced but highly supportive environment where patient care, professional growth, and teamwork are at the centre of everything we do.
A Rare Opportunity to Shape the Future of Exotics Care
This is more than an Exotics Veterinarian role. AEC Mount Waverley is building Melbourne's first dedicated after-hours exotics service, and we're looking for someone who wants to play a key role in bringing that vision to life.
You'll have the opportunity to help shape the service, influence clinical protocols and equipment purchases, build referral networks, and contribute to the future direction of exotics care within our hospital.
Supported for Success & A Diverse Caseload
While the service is growing, our vets will be able to support ongoing care for any exotic patient as well as help support you with working within an emergency and critical care setting along with passionate nursing staff with exotics experience, and access to ongoing emergency medicine training.
We've already invested in dedicated exotics housing and are committed to growing the service further. As the exotics caseload grows, you'll enjoy the opportunity to build and develop the service while maintaining a varied workload. The role will also include companion animal emergency work, making it ideal for veterinarians who have the exotics expertise but flexible to work within small animal cases and emergency medicine.

Greencross Veterinary Hospital (GVH) is seeking a motivated veterinarian for a three-year Small Animal Surgery Residency, structured around the Fellowship requirements of the Australian and New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists (ANZCVS).

- Direct surgical mentorship, clinical discussion, and constructive feedback.
- Opportunities to teach University of Melbourne veterinary students.
- Support for research, presentations and publications required for Fellowship training.

The residency follows the ANZCVS Small Animal Surgery Fellowship training framework.

Formal training arrangements are subject to College approval.

That’s what you’ll help us create.
A blank page. But not a blank playbook.
There’s something exciting about starting from scratch.
There’s also something terrifying about being handed the keys and told: “Good luck.”
That’s not what this is.
You’ll have the experience, systems, standards of care and lessons we’ve already developed at Clyde Veterinary Hospital behind you.
You won’t need to reinvent everything we’ve already learned.
But we absolutely want you to help shape what comes next.
What works here?
What needs to be different?
What could we do better?
What kind of team do we want to build?
What do we want clients saying about us five years from now?
You’ll get to help answer those questions.
In the Beginning, You’ll Be Doing the Work
You’ll be the primary veterinarian, working alongside an associate vet.
You’ll consult. Work cases.
Meet clients. Help attract new ones.
Help recruit your nursing team.
Solve problems. Build relationships.
And gradually help establish what this practice becomes known for.
This isn’t a management job disguised as a veterinary job.
You’ll still be a vet.
A very important one.
What Do We Want to Build?
A hospital known for excellent veterinary medicine.
High standards. Great people. Clear systems. Clients who trust us.
And a team that keeps getting better.
We already have established standards of care and operational systems. You won't be starting without a foundation.
But we absolutely want your thinking.
See something that could work better?
Tell us.
Have an idea?
Bring it.
Think we're wrong?
Challenge us.
Confidence matters here. Ego doesn’t.
The Kind of Vet Who Will Love This
You love veterinary medicine.
You enjoy solving the riddle of a difficult case.
You want to keep developing clinically, even as you develop as a leader.
You advocate for the best medicine for the animal.
You make the recommendation you believe is clinically right.
Explain it clearly.
Then work with the owner to make the best decision for them and their pet.
You're also someone who naturally sees how things could be better.
A better system.
A better client conversation.
A better way to manage a case.
A better way to develop someone on the team.
And you're prepared to do something about it.
That's How We Work…
See the problem.
Understand it.
Bring a solution.
Make the solution better.
That's the kind of thinking we want to bring into Orana Clyde Pet Hospital from day one.
And Then Something Interesting Happens...
You build the hospital.
Clients start coming.
The team grows.
We add another vet. Then another.
And gradually your job begins to change.
Less time doing everything yourself.
More time developing people.
Improving the hospital.
Finding opportunities.
Raising standards.
And leading something you helped create.
That's very different from walking into someone else's hospital with "Lead Veterinarian" written on your contract.
Let's Be Clear About the Reality
Starting something from scratch isn't for everyone.
There will be days when something doesn't work.
You'll change it.
There will be systems that look good on paper and don't survive contact with reality.
You'll improve them.
There will be problems nobody has encountered before.
You'll solve them.
You'll also need to be good with people.
You'll need to read the room.
Earn trust.
Communicate clearly.
And bring clients and staff with you.
If you want the title more than you want the responsibility that comes with it, this isn't your role.
But if the thought of looking around a thriving hospital in a few years and knowing...
"I helped build this."
...gives you a little buzz?
We should probably talk.
Where Could This Take You?
We're not corporate.
You'll have direct access to the owners and genuine influence over what this hospital becomes.
We'll invest in your development.
And for the right person, we're open to exploring profit sharing linked to agreed performance targets as the hospital grows.
We're not promising you a predetermined career ladder.
We're offering you the opportunity to help build the ladder.

If Building a Hospital Sounds More Exciting Than Inheriting One...
Don't write us a cover letter.
And don't worry about deciding whether you want the job yet.
If you’ve read this and thought “Geez. I’d love to create that”.
Call or text Albert on 0411 889 945.
Ask questions.
Tell us what you'd build.
Let's start with a conversation.
