MILE END, INNER WEST ADELAIDE - INTERNSHIP IN SMALL ANIMAL SURGERY - 12 MONTHS New Position

Internship in Small Animal Surgery

The Austin Vet Specialists (www.theaustin.vet) continues to grow!
Building on the success of our ECVS Residency program, we are inviting applications for the two newly created intern positions in Small Animal Surgery to join our team.

We are looking for hard-working, proactive people with excellent communication skills and a positive demeanour. Previous interns have been successful in progressing to residency positions.

The Internship:

The Internship is a full-time clinical position lasting one year, requiring four workdays a week, with rotating discharges and on-call coverage for Saturdays and Sundays. The start date is as soon as possible.
The goal is to give the Interns a deeper knowledge and gain experience within the dynamic field of small animal surgery.

The daily work will revolve around participating in the small animal surgery service and providing collaborative care for hospital patients. This will include supporting the anaesthesia and surgical preparation of surgical patients, as well as pre- and post-operative in-hospital patient care and assisting with consults and discharges. The Intern will scrub into a wide range of advanced soft tissue, orthopaedic and neurosurgeries, and actively participate in pre-operative and post-operative care. They will be supported by board-certified specialists in surgery (ECVS), internal medicine (ECVIM and ACVIM) and diagnostic imaging (ECVDI, FANZCVS and ACVR) as well as Ophthalmology (FANZCVS), residents, interns, and a team of amazing nurses. Needless to say, the Intern can expect full support and instruction (including journal club, film reading and other teaching), but initiative and desire to pursue further specialisation will be advantageous. We are an approved ECVS training centre and, for the right person, this Internship would be a stepping stone into further training programmes.

About us:

The Austin Vet Specialists is an independently owned veterinary specialist centre, located in Adelaide, South Australia. Our custom-built hospital (1200m2) is designed around a synergistic approach to patient care and has all the instruments necessary to enable our specialists to relish their chosen careers and flourish. This includes a specifically designed surgical wing with fully equipped theatres including a wide range of new orthopaedic and soft tissue equipment, minimally invasive equipment for laparoscopy, thoracoscopy and stenting, dedicated neurosurgical instruments, arthroscopy equipment, positive airflow, electrical adjustable operating tables, human-grade anaesthesia machines with ventilators, orthopaedic suite with fluoroscopy, and separate soft tissue suite with all the tools.

Please click here to see photos!

The ideal candidate will have the following skills and expertise:

A veterinary degree that is recognised in South Australia
Minimum of one year of working experience in a small animal veterinary practice
A previous rotating Internship is advantageous but not essential
Willingness to participate in a rotating roster, including weekends

Our values:

We will invest in your continuing education, but we need you to bring the motivation. In return, we will provide you with a challenging and satisfying career.
We will provide a happy workplace (including dealing with any negative workplace behaviour) to ensure you enjoy working with us. At The Austin, we take recruitment very seriously because we know it is essential to get the right people.
Being a specialist centre, expect ambitious standards and awesomeness, but also expect a lot of happiness and fulfilment from your job.
Oh...and bring your dog to work – our team has a dedicated pooch lounge!

If you believe you have the talent to fulfil this role and want to be a part of a friendly but dynamic environment, please Apply Now.
Please note that applications will close as soon as the position is filled, so submit your application promptly.

Application process:

Please send your CV and cover letter to Fui Yap at career@theaustin.vet. Please include a cover letter including your reason for applying for this position and what attracted you to The Austin.

Please also include your future career goals and prior experience. All applications will be treated confidentially, but please make sure you include contactable referees.

PORT LINCOLN, EYRE PENINSULA - MIXED OR SMALL ANIMAL

VET WANTED: Likes Animals, Can Hold Their Bladder for Hours (Optional, But Impressive)

Location: Port Lincoln, SA | Vets On Eyre

Hey, you. Yes, you—the vet who’s scrolling job ads looking for something that doesn’t sound like corporate jargon or an endless list of unrealistic expectations.

Let’s cut to the chase: We’re looking for a veterinarian to join our team at Vets On Eyre. Part-time or full-time, smallies or mixed—let’s chat and figure out what works for you.

Why You’ll Love It Here:

✅ Port Lincoln = Coastal Paradise – Think fishing, diving, surfing, hiking, and camping on your days off. Goodbye, traffic. Hello, ocean breezes.
✅ Mixed Practice, Rural Vibes – 80% smallies, 10% equine, and a sprinkling of sheep and cattle for good measure. Once we are back fully staffed with vets we aim to re-commence our remote vet visits to coastal towns—so if you love road trips, this could be your jam.
✅ Actual Support & Mentorship – We have 1 full-time and 4 part-time vets, plus senior support when needed. We’ll try not to throw you into the deep end without floaties.
✅ Fair After-Hours Roster & Compensation – 1-in-4 rotation, 70% of professional fees, and VetCheck 24/7 handling triage so you only get the real emergencies (not “Fluffy coughed once an hour ago”).
✅ Flexible Consults & Time to Breathe – 15 minutes for vaccines, 30+ minutes for everything else. No conveyor belt medicine here.
✅ CPD & Perks – $2000 annual CPD allowance, VSBSA registration covered, and epic staff discounts.
✅ Employee Assistance Program (EAP) – Because mental health matters, and we actually care about your well-being.

💰 Show Me the Money 💰

We’re willing to pay up to $140k + super for the right applicant. Salary is negotiable based on experience, but if you’ve got the skills and attitude we’re looking for, we’ll make it worth your while.

Who We’re Looking For:

✔️ A vet who’s confident enough to handle a shift solo but knows when to call in backup.
✔️ Bonus points if you know the difference between a cat that’s “just a little spicy” and a cat that has murder in its eyes.
✔️ Experience is great, but if you’re a new grad with a solid attitude, resilience and a willingness to learn, we’d love to support you.
✔️ Mixed practice skills are a plus, but if you prefer to stick to small animals, we can make that work.

Ready to Join Us?

Shoot your CV (or just an email saying “Tell me more!”) to:
📧 Greg Sezun, Lisa Wiseman & Madeleine Baird
📩 Email: management@vetsoneyre.com.au

If you’re still undecided, take this as your sign to stop doomscrolling job ads and reach out.
