COOLAH, WARRAMBUNGLES - MIXED 
Mixed Practice Position – Coolah Veterinary Clinic
About Us:
Coolah Veterinary Clinic has been operating for 50+ years with a particular focus on the livestock and equine industries. In the past 10 years we have expanded and now operate 3 clinics with the addition of the Coonabarabran and Merriwa clinics.
The livestock work predominately consists of beef cattle production with a large numbers of pregnancy testing and bull testing as well as AI, herd health, disease investigations, obstetrics and all the rest that you would expect. We are also experiencing an increase in the amount of sheep work with the current values as they are and have taken on a sheep scanning service.
The area has a strong horse population, mainly involved in campdrafting, polocrosse, rodeo, eventing, pony club and other performance activities. Equine work consists of all the usual day to day ailments along with a growing dentistry and repro caseload.
The small animal aspect of the business has expanded considerably over the past several years. The three clinics provide all the usual care for the wide range of cases you would expect see in a rural practice – providing plenty of surgical and medical experience.

This role would provide the perfect introduction for new or recent graduates to gain valuable experience in all aspects of small animal, equine and livestock veterinary medicine. For any more experienced veterinarians out there the role could also be tailored towards any preferences in a particular area if so desired.
For new graduates we will implement a training/transition period whereby you will accompany senior veterinarians in a rotation system covering all aspects of the practice. This program will be flexible and the duration will vary depending on the individual and is designed to ease you into practice and make the transition as smooth as possible whilst also giving you the opportunity to meet clients and gain their trust in the presence of experienced vets.
This position would be on a 9 day fortnight (RDO will always be a Monday or Friday) with 1 in 5 after hours – NOTE that after hours is only required between 8am-8pm on weekends and until 8pm on weeknights.
What we can offer you:
- Truly mixed practice with a great caseload to gain experience in a wide array of fields OR a small animal only job whilst still being able to live in the country
- For new/recent graduates the chance to ease into practice by accompanying senior veterinarians for as long or short a period as you feel comfortable with
- A fun, laid back and flexible workplace
- Well above award wages, dependent on experience, with generous after hours remuneration (to make the hassle slightly less tedious!) and phone allowance
- Other perks including AVA membership, continuing education support and rental assistance if required
- Plenty of toys and equipment including small and large animal ultrasound, 4x Easiscan Preg-testing ultrasounds, DR xray systems, iM3 dental stations, multi-parameter anaesthetic monitor, full equine dental kit including portable crush, bull testing gear and much more
- The chance to live and work in a beautiful part of rural NSW in a small but vibrant close knit community that still has the benefits of larger nearby centres (Mudgee/Dubbo/Tamworth)

COWRA, CENTRAL WEST - MIXED ANIMAL
MIXED PRACTICE VETERINARIAN
About the Position:
Are you looking for:
- A highly supportive team environment?
- A workplace that encourages growth and nurtures special interests?
- A well-equipped and purpose-built clinic?
Then please keep reading!
We at Cowra Vet Centre are passionate about providing high standards of veterinary care to our patients and the best possible service to our clients. We pride ourselves on being animal welfare advocates for our patients large and small, by being their voice and recommending everything they need.
Sound good? Then we would like you to join the team at Cowra Veterinary Centre.
Due to ongoing growth in our business, the arrival of babies and our determination to be a family-friendly and mental-health friendly employer, we need more help. We are flexible about the position being full time or part time; we are also flexible about employing an experienced veterinarian or a new graduate and will negotiate salary accordingly.
About Us:
Cowra Veterinary Centre is a 2.5-vet rural mixed practice located in the central west of NSW. We moved into our new purpose-built clinic close to three years ago, so everything is very well designed, new and works really well.
Our caseload is approximately 3/4 small animal and 1/4 large animal (beef cattle, horses, sheep, dairy cattle). We are open 5.5 days per week and offer a 24-hour emergency service. We run a branch practice in a nearby town two afternoons per week.
We have a small, happy, and harmonious team with 6 vets (1 full time; 5 part time) and 10 nurses/receptionists (3 full time; 7 part time). We are well equipped with inhouse IDEXX (Catalyst and ProCyte), digital radiography, ultrasound, IM3 Elite unit (with dental x-ray to come) and have invested in excellent anaesthesia monitoring including ETCo2, ECG, temperature control and supportive therapy.
We have also recently invested in Equine dentistry equipment including Powerfloat and mobile crush as well as a mobile ultrasound machine for equine reproduction.
Please click here to see photos!
We believe in the importance of a good work-life balance (work to live, not live to work) so operate on a 4 day work week roster for our vets and nurses. We encourage positive mental health practices and continuing education for all staff. Cowra Veterinary Centre is a member of the Lincoln Institute Lead to Succeed training program.
Testimonial:
I recently undertook a placement at Cowra Veterinary Centre as a final year vet student.
The practice is an impressive custom built facility, fitted out and equipped out with digital x-ray, ultrasound, dental float, power tools, in house biochemistry and a fantastic microscope that is regularly serviced. This is a busy practice with a truly mixed caseload of large animals (cattle, sheep, goats, equine), small animals and a sizeable amount of wildlife.
The team dynamic at the practice was the best I have experienced all year, with welcoming, experienced and supportive nurses and veterinarians across all ages. Morale was always high - with a guaranteed lunch break each day and staff that prioritise mental health of their employees. A new graduate would be highly supported, mentored and welcomed into the local community.
As a student I found it a highly supportive environment where I was given freedom to practice and improve surgical and clinical skills without pressure or judgement. I was included in discussions and felt a valued member of the team. This would be an amazing position for a new graduate who is looking for a supportive transition into their career, or who is happy to work more independently with backup when required.

ALBURY-WODONGA - SMALL ANIMALS
Seeking a FT veterinarian to join our team. NEW or RECENT graduate, or experienced veterinarian who we can support and shares our values.
Four day working week
Team consulting for optimal support
$80,000 for New graduate ++ for experience by negotiation.
We are very keen for a new or recent graduate veterinarian to join our team on a full-time basis. We would also welcome an experienced vet to join our team.
One of the things that are most important to us at our hospital is to provide a supportive and encouraging workplace, where you are challenged to work just outside your comfort zone. This is called the 'growth zone'. We operate in this zone because we know we can support you - and you will experience success and joy, and love coming to work as much as we do.
A bit about us:
We are a relatively young hospital, just celebrating our 4th birthday. We have enjoyed a welcomed response from the community and have a well-established and lovely client base. We have 4 senior vets with different areas of expertise, who complement each other very well. We operate on a 2 vets per day basis currently (which would increase when you join us) - so you will always have a senior vet working alongside you.
We start each day off with a 'morning huddle', where all team members have a look at the schedule for the day, share a daily win we have had and ensure clarity in everyone’s roles for that day. Currently we have rostered surgery days where you will do surgery in the morning and consult in the afternoon and consulting days. When you join us and are comfortable, we have the capacity to increase surgery to 2 vets per day as we have separate dog and cat surgery rooms. Our surgery caseload is varied, and we have lots of opportunity for routine desexings to cement your surgery skills for new or recent graduates, through to more complicated soft tissue surgery. We currently do not have a vet who is skilled in orthopaedics and would welcome these skills into our team. We do all vet work exclusively for local rescue, Albury Wodonga Animal Rescue, which is our sense of community and something our whole team enjoy doing.
Our consults are mostly 30 minutes, giving you time to get to know clients, do a thorough examination and discuss treatment plans. We have an experienced support team, including a dedicated receptionist, senior nurses and trainee nurses. We support the nursing team's growth by getting them to do as much as they can so you can focus on vet work.
Vets work a 4-day week, 8am-6pm and have 1 rostered day off. After hours is evenly shared (when you're ready) – currently each vet does one full week per month on call (including the weekend). Call outs workload is manageable, and shared amongst the vets. New grads would join the after-hours roster after 6 months. There will always be a mentor vet available to assist you. Saturdays we are open 9-1 so there is a short consulting shift done by our vets on a rotational basis.
A little bit about you:
We are looking for someone who has:
- Great people presence, who can connect and relate to clients
- Time efficiency
- Attention to detail
- Willing to teach others
- High EQ – good self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy and social skills
A little bit about our hospital
We are well set up and some of our major equipment includes:
- Digital X-ray
- Ultrasound
- Dental equipment, including dental x-ray
- Separate and dedicated dog and cat hospitals, each with own treatment area and surgery
- 3 consulting rooms
- Idexx in house bloods and other routine in house laboratory equipment
We are registered as a Gold ISFM Cat Friendly Clinic and working towards ASAVA accreditation.
We practice hospital excellence and are continually self-evaluating our protocols to ensure best practice is achieved.
Please click here to see photos!
Ongoing CPD and team training:
This is critical for everyone in the team. We advocate for ongoing learning with regular team training and refresher training, practice membership to VIN, Vet Education webinars and ISFM. You will also be supported with a study allowance of $1500 PA and 1 week study leave per year. This comes into effect once you have been with us for 12 months.
We have monthly nurse and vet meetings to ensure smooth flow of hospital procedures and discuss projects we are working on. We hold a Team meeting quarterly where we close the clinic and discuss non-clinical training.
Teaching:
We pride ourselves on being a hospital, that advocates training and teaching, generally hosting veterinary nursing students and vet students where we can. Once you have found your feet, we would love for you to teach others, as teaching is also an amazing confidence building experience and really gets you comfortable with the content.
A little bit about Albury-Wodonga:
The clinic is located in Albury (Lavington) but the area is generally referred to as Albury-Wodonga. Albury being located on the NSW side of the Murray River and twin sister city - Wodonga being located on the Victorian side. Together the area offers great out-of-work lifestyle opportunities, many outdoor places to explore, in winter the snow fields are only an hour or so away. It is a large enough city to have all of your major shops and services, but small enough to still have that country feeling.
You can visit our Facebook page to see some photos of the clinic and get a ‘feel’ for the team - or we welcome you to come and meet the team. We would encourage for you to work with us during final year practice placement if you are graduating this year.
For all enquiries please contact: Dr Sally Whitwell (Veterinarian & Practice Manager) by phone 02 6040 6995 or via email sally.whitwell@hotmail.com
Testimonial from a vet student:
Aimee initially did university practical placement with us but has then come back to do some nursing for experience during the holidays. Here's what she had to say:
"After I completed placement at Dr Jana’s in the summer of 2020, I returned as a nurse both after my placement and in the summer of 21/22. My choice to return was to do with the amazing and supportive team who became like family to me. Each of the vets has been an excellent mentor and all the nurses are incredible to work with. The clinic provides a safe environment to learn and excel and would be the perfect place for a new grad to start their journey"

TAREE, MID NORTH COAST - SMALL ANIMAL 
Are you looking to practice high quality companion animal medicine in a fun, well-supported environment? Would you like to work in a friendly practice situated in the scenic Mid-North Coast of NSW? Our practice has seen tremendous growth over the last few years and we are looking to expand our team of vets. We aim to offer city- quality service in a semi-rural environment.
Our vets are supported by an incredible team of experienced nurses that have been with the practice for between 7 and 16 years (inception of the practice). The practice itself is in a brand-new building with all expected toys. We pride ourselves on teamwork, mutual support, quality service and gold standard work. We strongly support emotional health at work as well as ongoing education and training. We do our utmost to keep working hours reasonable and run to a set booking schedule as much as is possible. We will do whatever is possible to support working parents and understand the importance of time with family and family commitments. Special interest areas are highly encouraged and supported- we would love to support our new vet in whatever field they enjoy working in.
Please click here to see photos!
If you are enthusiastic, have great communication skills, and can work well with a team, this is the job for you. Experience is less important than enthusiasm, as highly experienced vets are available to support. We can accommodate full or part-time, but willingness to do on-call is essential. The after-hours roster is 1 in 6. Full support will be provided for you if you are a recent graduate.
There is a real opportunity for buy-in to become a partner. The owner is in semi-retirement and the new vet team is part of the exit strategy. So this is a real opportunity if you consider yourself a owner of a business.
Salary is well above award, from 85k per annum for new graduates to 125K+ for highly experienced vets with standard entitlements. CPD is well supported, and professional memberships are paid.
The Mid-North Coast is a pristine area of incredible natural beauty- beaches, mountains, rivers and lakes we have it all. House prices are still very reasonable and the standard of living is excellent. Taree is a major rural centre with all typical amenities, and our sister hospital is in Tuncurry, a well-known beach-side holiday destination. Port Macquarie and Newcastle are only a short drive away if the urge for cities should strike. We still have a strong sense of belonging and community which adds value to our every day.
If you would like to work for a practice with great support, where you can develop special interests and enjoy an excellent atmosphere, then call Geert Lampen on 0427655139 or e-mail glampen@manningvet.com.au for more information.

This testimonial from one of our vets should convince you that this is the place for you!
“I started as a new graduate in 2017 and am only leaving to try my hand overseas! I was never pushed into doing anything I wasn't ready to do and could go at my own pace. The practice owner is super supportive and will still answer my calls even now to provide advice and assistance.
BTW it is an awesome team!! All the nurses are very capable, and they make the job so easy so you can get on with being a vet.
The caseload is varied and interesting. Because of the location, you get to “have a go”, rather than just referring everything …..so skills develop much quicker.
Orange is an amazing town. There is always something happening! (Dr Lauren Slater)

Testimonial
“After spending two weeks at Moss Vale Veterinary Hospital completing a year 2 university placement, my confidence, knowledge and skills increased dramatically. The dedicated staff created a very approachable and encouraging learning environment that allowed me to embrace the experience and leave every day knowing that I had learnt something new. The practice manager, Jess, was very easy to communicate with and her passion for the clinic was evident in her interactions with clients and staff. The wonderful nurses gave me every opportunity to practice my skills and show me the ropes of the clinic. The two vets, Dr. Alex Johnston and Dr. James Blackshaw were great mentors and allowed me to be part of their consults and conduct my own consults, creating countless learning opportunities. In the 2 weeks that I was there, I felt like a valuable member of the team and could not recommend Moss Vale Veterinary Hospital highly enough, as a place to work or to visit as a client.”

About The Area
The Central Coast of NSW is a rapidly growing area. Green Point is located at the southern end of the Central Coast (Gosford area) and provides an enviable lifestyle being surrounded by nature with beaches, waterways and National Parks. It offers a lifestyle which is more relaxed and affordable than Sydney but Sydney is within an easy commute (approx. 35 minutes by car or there are regular train services) and Newcastle is just over an hour away. I moved to the Central Coast for my first job after graduation and love the area – its only downfall, finding a café for a coffee after about 1600 in the afternoon.
If you have any questions or would like to apply please contact Sarah on sarahliddane@hotmail.com or call/text 0417 244 806. All discussions and applications will be completely confidential.

There will be no expectation of any sole charge, on call in your first 3 months if you have just graduated, undertaking unfamiliar surgeries without backup, nor working when sick/tired.
One of our recent veterinary recruits Dr Nikki has this to say :
“The working day is well structured with half hour consults and a team huddle twice a day. This means you are able to follow interesting cases and get support on your own. Staff well-being is a priority, and it is unusual not to get a full lunch break, so you can get out and enjoy the sun even if you are busy consulting all day. The best part is the lovely team of experienced receptionists and nurses that look after you and make the clinic a really fun place to be.”
For any further questions, or to submit your application (CV and cover letter), please email tristan.robinson@waggavet.com.au

YAMBA, NORTHERN RIVERS - SMALL ANIMAL 
Angourie Road Veterinary Surgery is expanding!
We are so very excited to advertise for another vet to help us treat the animals of the Clarence Valley, in the beautiful Northern Rivers region of NSW. Yamba is ideally positioned at the mouth of the Clarence River, with some of Australia's best beaches mere moments away from the surgery. We are privileged to live and work in an area of outstanding natural beauty, calm relaxed lifestyle and yet have access to the facilities of major regional towns (Coffs Harbour and Ballina are both around an hour away) as well as the bright lights and glitter of the Gold Coast being only 2 hours drive.
Befitting the beauty of the environment, we have embarked on an expansion of the Angourie Road Veterinary Surgery (ARVS) that reflects our location. In designing the expansion, we have leaned into principles of biophilic design – that is, designing a building that supports the health of the patients, the practitioners and the clients. Biophilic design aims to use feature of nature to nourish the mental and physical health of those inside the built environment. Think loads of natural light, cross ventilation, multiple distinct accessible garden spaces, employee courtyards and breakout spaces; patient wards facing their own courtyards; and an emphasis on high quality natural materials. We are so very proud of the facility we are building and can't wait to fill it with colleagues who share our vision of high quality medicine and surgery in a positive, caring and welcoming environment. Start scratching the surface of this design philosophy here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biophilic_design
We're open to anyone – new grads (we're a placement hospital for the University of Sydney and take great pride in watching “our” students progress and blossom into their fullest potential!), experienced vets, full time, part time, casual – tell us how we can make it work for you! If you've got special skills, let us know so we can incorporate what makes you flourish into our design.
Dr Karen has a particular interest in dentistry, dermatology and palliative/end-of-life care. As such, the expanded practice has a dedicated double dental suite kitted out with IM3 dental equipment including radiology. We also have a dedicated consult room with private courtyard and gardens for palliation and EOL care. As for dermatology – while this can be done in a “normal” consult room, wouldn't you rather practice in a consult room with it's own dedicated private courtyard and water feature, a room where you can choose to consult inside or outside in our beautiful North Coast weather, and take a moment in your standard half-hour consult to just breathe and enjoy the sun on your soul? Of course, you don't need to share these exact interests – complimentary skills and a team approach means we all get more time to do what we love. Perhaps you love orthopaedics, or acupuncture, or medicine, or diagnostic imaging...whatever you're interested in, we're sure we can find you a beautiful and valued place here.
Our facilities include in house laboratory, digital radiology, dental radiology, ultrasound, separate dental suite from 3-table treatment room and sterile theatre; separate dog and cat wards, and more.
Please click here to see photos!
We have a great working relationship with nearby clinics and share the after hours roster. This collaborative approach means that you would only need to be on-call one weeknight out of every 14 days, and one weekend out of 6. Each time you are on call, a roster of dedicated nurses are on call with you, so you are always supported. Our clinic is open 9am to 5pm Mon to Fri.
For those interested in seeing what we are creating, and seeing if you are going to be a good fit, we have a waterfront 2bdrm apartment for you to come and stay and check out the town, the beaches, our practice and our philosophy. Bring your family or yourself for a while and breathe the salt air while you go with the flow of our relaxed coastal town. Should you wish to join the team, you're welcome to stay in the apartment until you settle in; alternatively this may suit someone who wants to work a few days a week and come enjoy the delights of Yamba for your weekends. You've got nothing to lose by coming to the coast!
If you want to chat more - Please contact Dr Karen Teasdale via email: admin@arvs.com.au or phone 0428 306 224
Note that our photos here are in our existing clinic, and some progress shots of the new build. Our new clinic is scheduled to be finished in June 2023.

About us:
Lachlan Valley Vets is a true mixed practice looking to expand our veterinary team and fill the position of one of our vets who is retiring gallantly after 25+ years of owning and practicing at the clinic.

We will cater to any interest as this is a genuine mixed practice. Services offered include equine reproduction, cattle, sheep and goat herd health, plus international export of livestock from 5 different facilities, as well as a broad array of small animal medicine and surgical cases, including but not limited to reptiles, birds and native wildlife.

There is the opportunity to work up difficult medical and surgical cases in-house however we can refer to specialty hospitals in Wagga Wagga, Canberra and Sydney.
We have a purpose-built branch clinic in Grenfell, NSW which is open Tuesday each week.
We have incredible support staff with a wide variety of experience and skills. Our nurses are well trained, supportive and are capable of working in teams and independently.
We are a locally owned family business, so if you are looking for support and encouragement from the ground level where you will be working side-by-side with the owners, this job is for you. Our team is like a family, with your work/life balance and mental health a high priority. If you have a family, we understand (and also survive) the chaos that goes along with parenting and are flexible with school pickups and sick children.

We have a coffee van that religiously pulls up at the clinic weekday mornings. Don’t worry if you don’t have a chance to get a caffeine hit before you come to work because it will be delivered with a smile! We also like to try and engage in a communal lunch on Thursdays with an order from the local bakery or pub. This gives us the chance for all staff to catch up, debrief and socialise.
Our team values good communication, often working up cases together. This is helped by our office being laid out so all vets can discuss cases, look at radiographs and easily converse with each other.
About the position:
4 day working week with a dedicated day off. For special occasions it can be arranged to occur on a Friday for a long weekend.
On call load is light and will be shared as 1 in 3 or 1 in 4.

About you:
We love our job and while some days can be overwhelming, coming to work should be overall an enjoyable experience. We want our new team members to feel comfortable and fit in well with our clinic family. Our ideal candidate will be enthusiastic, reliable and friendly and happy to communicate.
We have two positions available at the moment. If you are happy to work with all species, that’s excellent, but we are also looking for a small animal vet so if you don’t like sheep, goats, cows and horses you can stay in the clinic with the smallies. If you don’t have confidence with livestock but would like to build up that confidence, this is the job for you.

BOMADERRY, SOUTH COAST SHOALHAVEN - MIXED OR SMALL ANIMAL

You could be a Small Animal Vet looking for a Country lifestyle or a Mixed Practitioner wanting to treat Dairy Cows and Horses. Full Time, Part Time or job share. Drop us a line! We would consider sponsoring a vet from overseas who is the right candidate; one who is eligible to work in Australia and intends to stay and enjoy our relaxed lifestyle.
Bomaderry Veterinary Hospital consists of the main Hospital, a purpose-built multimillion dollar building, opened in August 2022. The Culburra branch is also housed in a purpose-built hospital, whilst the second branch is a long-standing facility in Shoalhaven Heads. Vets rotate between the three clinics, with the majority of time spent in the main Hospital.
We currently have 7 full-time vets and 4 part-timers. The team is very collaborative and are genuinely interested in helping each other out with cases. There is a broad spectrum of experience and special interests throughout the practice with experienced Surgeons able to tackle most cases. We are also involved in a large amount of canine reproduction work, performing TCI’s and Caesareans regularly. Orthopaedic cases are generally treated in house. Greyhound cases are also an interesting part of the practice caseload.
We see about 30% large animals, mainly consisting of pleasure horses, small ruminants and Beef and Dairy cattle. There is regular Cattle Pregnancy testing and Herd Health work undertaken.
Being two hours from the nearest referral facility, we manage most of our work in house, but when needed, we have dedicated owners who are willing to refer. We have plenty of equipment to help us provide the upmost patient care, including Digital Radiography, full suite of in-house IDEXX equipment (Procyte Dx, Catalyst DX, Coag, SediVue DX, VetStat), Rigid and Flexible Video Endoscopy, Colour Doppler Ultra-sound, and iM3 Dental equipment, etc.

The vets’ roster is based around a 4-day working week, and after working a weekend, you have a 4-day weekend. After hours are shared evenly between the full-time vets, and we utilise the Medechat Vet 24/7 service to minimise call. Weekends are staffed by 2 vets, who share the on-call work. This means you are never on call more than one night in a row!
We also have a nursing on-call roster, so help is always available if needed. Renumeration is paid at an above Award hourly rate, and you are well compensated for any overtime, which is generally not excessive.
Bomaderry is located on the sunny South Coast of NSW, on the northern side of the Shoalhaven River, about 2 hours south of Sydney, 20 minutes from pristine Jervis Bay and the surf beaches of Culburra and Shoalhaven Heads. Looking westwards the surrounding State and National parks offer camping, climbing and bushwalking. We have a multitude of good schools, several large private and government employment bases, good sporting facilities and lots of cultural opportunities.
