About Walwa Vet Practice

What We Offer

A fresh management team dedicated to making work feel less like a chore and more like a team sport. Not every day is a walk in the park, sometimes it's more like an uphill run, but your colleagues are always ready to back you up. Coffee and friendly banter are always on hand!
A varied caseload - beef cattle and equine medicine, surgery and reproduction. We treasure our clients and pride ourselves on building relationships that last beyond the consult room.
The thrill of treating small animal cases (including wildlife) ranging from orthopaedics, vehicle trauma, snake bites, roo wounds to the classic 'my dog ate what?!' gastrointestinal dramas. Working with several rescue organisations also provides an opportunity to fine tune your surgery and medicine skills.
Most cases are handled in house, but if referral is required, Wagga Wagga and Albury are both just over an hour away.
Tools to help get the job done include digital radiography, in house and portable ultrasound units, IDEXX haematology, and a facility purpose-built for our equine friends. We are planning on adding a portable horse crush to our arsenal, as equine dentistry is a passion for one of our vets.
Competitive pay, CPD leave and regular RDO's. A vehicle is provided for work purposes.
On-call roster that won't ruin your social life, plus nurse support when you need an extra set of hands (or someone to bring snacks).

Candidate Profile

Ideally, you're an experienced mixed practitioner, but if you're a keen new grad with a thick skin (and an even thicker sense of humour), we want to hear from you.
You thrive in chaos, adapt quickly, and have a knack for surviving whatever the day throws at you.
You're a team player who puts patients first, delivers top-notch client service, and likes being part of the community.
Got a special interest? Bring it! We love a team as diverse as our patient list.

Location

Our HQ is in Walwa, Northeast Victoria, with a second base in Tumbarumba, NSW. Both locations are a stone's throw from the Murray River, ski fields, legendary fishing spots, and incredible bushwalks.

Join Our Team

If you're keen for a job where no two days are the same (and no two patients either), drop us a line and join a crew that takes animal care - and good humour - seriously.

Send your CV to Sarah Albert (Director) at admin@walwavet.com.au. For more info, give us a call on (02) 6037 1399 or 0429 056 564.

QUEANBEYAN, ACT/NSW BORDER - SMALL ANIMAL

Queanbeyan Veterinary Hospital is looking for a new vet to join our team!

Why Queanbeyan?

We are a fantastic, friendly, and inclusive practice. Our clientele are lovely, and mostly keen to fully work up cases, so you can practice medicine to a satisfyingly high standard. As part of the Capital Paws Group we have access to a wide network of vets with different special interest areas who are always keen to help. We have sonographers, surgeons, behaviourists, dentists and medicine gurus, a rabbit vet and reptile enthusiasts, among others. We also provide internal referral to surgical and medical specialists. Whatever your question or interest there is someone to talk to.

We have regular social and continuing education catch ups, and the level of collegiality is second to none. Our group is encouraging and supportive of continuing education, and skills development. If you're interested, we would love you to get involved with the group's animal health programmes in indigenous communities in the Northern Territory.

The Capital Paws clinics are all privately owned by local vets who work in their clinic and are dedicated to work life balance for everyone. The practices are extremely family friendly.

Please click here to see photos!

What about the bells and whistles?

Our clinic is delightfully well equipped with in house digital radiography, dental radiography, a great ultrasound machine (and in-house sonographer), in-house HESKA blood machines and tonometry as some of our many handy tools. We have orthopaedic capabilities as well as a wide range of general surgical and medical capabilities, including chemotherapy.

Work-life Balance and CPD

What about the after hours? No after hours! We're so lucky in Canberra to have two emergency centres at night time and on the weekends, and the specialist centre just down the road from us. Within the Capital Paws group, we also have a dedicated daytime weekend emergency clinic.
Full time four days per week OR Part-time - flexible arrangements are available and encouraged to suit your needs
Half-day Saturdays (8am-12pm) with a 1-in-4 Saturday rotation
We also offer our staff an annual wellness allowance to encourage self-care and an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) if needed
A generous CPD allowance is also offered, including a daily allowance towards travel and accommodation costs.

New Grads are encouraged to apply

We offer a new grad mentorship programme, 10 days per year to focus on a specific interest within our clinic group, and monthly tutorials focused on supporting and educating new graduates. This is also a great opportunity to meet other new grads from the Capital Paws family

Why the Canberra region?

Canberra is honestly an undiscovered gem of a place to live. There is so much culture and beautiful outdoor space. As the capital, and home of all the embassies, the vibe is much more cosmopolitan than you might expect for a city of this size.

We are conveniently placed close to the mountains and South Coast, and it is honestly so easy to dash to other places, such as Sydney, for a visit. The climate is beautiful and the air is fresh. You can get anywhere in town within 30 minutes as a rule! Coming with a family? This is an excellent city to raise kids, the schools are fantastic, there are so many things to do (and if you join us, you're welcome to ask me about them!) Coming as a new grad? This is a lively city full of young professionals with heaps of social, sporting and hobby opportunities.

Who should apply?

If you are a small animal vet with a love of providing high quality care and looking to be a part of a supportive team, we would love to hear from you. Whether you are a new grad or an experienced hand, I am sure you will appreciate our warm and supportive environment.

We are committed to providing support and mentoring for our new grads, and generally being an encouraging team for all staff across the group.

Want to know more? Please send any questions or applications to Louise Nicholls (louisen@queanbeyanvet.com.au).

Apiam Animal Health is offering a unique opportunity for an experienced veterinarian who wants variety, flexibility, and the chance to explore some of Australia’s most vibrant regional communities - all while enjoying great pay and benefits. This position is to fill in for leave positions across our network of clinics Australia-wide.

From beachside towns to rural heartland, this role offers a true Australian adventure. You’ll rotate through a mix of coastal communities, regional hubs and country clinics, each with its own pace and caseload — from companion heavy medicine and soft tissue surgery to genuine mixed practice with equine and livestock work. Expect variety in your day and plenty of lifestyle perks after hours, whether that’s a swim at sunset, a hike through wine country or a weekend exploring the outback.

What stays consistent is our standard of care. Every Apiam clinic you visit is equipped with modern facilities — digital radiography (including dental), ultrasound, in house lab and dedicated theatres — and supported by clear clinical protocols and a strong nursing team. You’ll have the security of a permanent contract, paid travel, self contained accommodation and a company car or allowance, plus access to CPD programs and a national network of peers. Different postcode, same quality care — and your next adventure always on the horizon.

What is on offer

Competitive pay: $75–$85/hour + Super + leave entitlements
12-month fixed-term contract with full-time hours
Travel Australia: Rotate through our network of progressive clinics - from coastal towns to country hubs without the stress or hassle of organising shifts.
Accommodation provided (self-contained) + travel covered
Company car for your roving lifestyle

Why you will love this role

No two months are the same - experience diverse caseloads across mixed practice clinics
Join a supportive national team with strong clinical standards and resources
Enjoy the security of a permanent role with the excitement of a roving lifestyle

What we’re looking for

5+ years’ experience in mixed animal practice
Confident in general practice surgery and medicine across species
Comfortable with on-call duties and sole charge
Flexible, adaptable, and ready to travel across multiple states
Current full veterinary registration in Australia

Your adventure starts here

If you’re a vet who thrives on variety, loves meeting new teams, and wants to see the best of regional Australia, this is your chance.

Apply now and make this the year you take your career on the road!

DORRIGO, MID NORTH COAST HINTERLAND - MIXED

Veterinarian required.

Dorrigo Veterinary Clinic

Commencing February 2026, we will have a position for a mixed practice veterinarian.

The position has become available as my daughter, who has been working with me for the past 4 years, has decided to pursue a different career path. Obviously my succession plans have changed.

Dorrigo Veterinary Clinic is a two-vet rural mixed practice, with a case load of 40% dogs, 50% dairy and beef cattle, with horses and the odd cat making up the rest. The practice is well regarded by our colleagues, with a solid reputation established over many years in the community.

Please click here to see photos!

Salary between $85k - $120k depending on experience. Shared After hours.

Why would you want to come and live and work in Dorrigo? Well, I’m so pleased you asked!

Firstly, it’s a simply beautiful little town just up the range behind Coffs Harbour and Bellingen. We’re only 45 minutes to the beaches, 60 minutes to Coffs Harbour, and we have World Heritage National Parks at our backdoor.

Being privately owned, the emphasis isn’t on meeting KPIs, but in providing a good service to our clients. We’ve accumulated pretty well all the gear you need to practice excellent medicine and surgery, be if for small animals or cattle and equine work. The work is interesting and varied, and by being out of the way, we get the opportunity to perform procedures that might otherwise be referred.

The practice has been around for a long time and has an established clientele, many of whom we have worked with for decades. We value the relationships with our good clients highly.

The current owner isn’t getting any younger. This will hopefully be my last run as an employer, and I want to make it an outstanding and lasting success, so there is the real opportunity for practice ownership.

And importantly, you can still afford to buy a house in Dorrigo! The real question is why would you want to live in a capital city, with a mortgage you can’t jump over, and being stuck in traffic on your daily commute?

What do you need to bring to the table

A degree as a veterinarian registerable in NSW
Driver’s licence
A willingness to engage in all aspects of the practice
A commitment to professional development across a variety of fields and species

For further information or to apply, please contact Dr Christopher Shirley on 02 6657 2416 or admin@dorrigovet.com.au

LITHGOW, BLUE MOUNTAINS - SMALL ANIMAL

Feeling like you need a change...?

Do you want to enjoy flexible hours, no after hours and be paid what you’re worth...??

Bored with doing notes, invoicing, and talking about the same stuff day in, day out…?

Wish you could work where you feel appreciated, do what you love to do, have a lunch break, and finish on time?

Well, read on. I’m Michelle, and I am the Owner of Lithgow Veterinary Hospital – a small animal clinic nestled at the base of the breathtaking Blue Mountains.

What I love most about my job is the feeling that what I do still matters, both to my clients, their pets, and my team...

I love that most of our clients greet me as an old friend and that we still have that family feel...

And I still love what I do!

Now, I'm seeking a new team member to join our already fabulous crew.

You would be perfect for the role if:

You're eager to share the veterinary load with our skilled nurses (think nurse co-consulting, nurse concierge, IV catheterization, blood collection, and basic dentistry). We really value and respect our team.
You're excited by the prospect of personal growth and improvement in a supportive team.
You view mistakes as valuable feedback rather than failures and can share a laugh along the way.
You possess a genuine love for people as much as you do for animals.
You thrive on innovative ideas and enjoy contributing to a dynamic, progressive workplace.

Important details:

Enjoy the flexibility of choosing your hours – whether you prefer casual, part-time, or full-time work.
We offer generous flexibility to pursue your dreams – accommodating school hours, partners' schedules, or even your pet's favourite walk times!
No After Hours or weekend shifts – your time outside of work is truly your own. However, we're a social bunch, so feel free to join us for trivia nights, drinks, and snacks at the Blue Fox or any other events on our social calendar.

"Dr Ben,

Ourimbah Vet is a fantastic workplace.....whether you are an experienced vet or a new graduate, and no matter where you are in your veterinary career, you WILL feel like part of team that cares about the creatures and their owners in the local community.
I cannot express how enjoyable my time has been here as a locum coming up from Sydney to help out. All the staff members are so friendly and helpful to ensure the place is run smoothly and everyone is happy!"

"Dr Josh:

I spent 2 weeks at Ourimbah Vet Hospital as a locum, and absolutely loved it. The clinic itself is large and incredibly equipped. It has excellent lab machines, a purpose built dental room with dental radiography and another surgical room that has everything you need. The clinic feels clean, open and bright. The team are extremely helpful and lovely. The nurses and support staff are highly skilled and work independently to make your life as easy as possible. Whilst small the team has developed a great vibe that makes you feel welcomed and comfortable, even as a newcomer. The clientele were very reasonable, and allowed workup and referral where appropriate. When unable to afford diagnostics, they were understanding and communicative. Overall, I had a wonderful time working with the team at Ourimbah. I think it’s the perfect clinic for a vet with initiative to step in and help to forge a successful practice that makes both them, their team and the clientele happy."

Full-time

An opportunity exists for an experienced Emergency Veterinarian to join our Gosford team on a permanent part-time basis; Ideally 20-36hrs a week.

Why Would You Want To Work For Us?

Location, Location, Location!
The Central Coast New South Wales is located just an hour North of Sydney CBD. It has access to pristine waterways for boating, great surf beaches and many National Parks and bush land reserves for picnics and hiking. There is a thriving cafe and restaurant culture and many weekend markets to enjoy. All the perks of Sydney while enjoying a slightly more relaxed pace. Work-Life balance is a must, and you can find it here. We also have easy access to the coffee roastery next door who serve the best bacon-and-egg rolls around.

We Truly Care About Our Staff
You are joining a workplace that cares about you. Our staff come first; we want you to have a fulfilling role, a great work-life balance and to continue to learn in areas that interest you.

We are a clinic that prides itself on our workplace culture. ARH Gosford has a very low staff turnover - most of our team have been with us for over 5 years, some over 10! We achieve this because we really care about what you need, we are as flexible as possible with shifts and leave, and we value and support each other.

We Have Toys To Play With and 24hr Support
You will have access to Australia’s largest network of Specialists and Emergency veterinarians and the Central Coast’s longest established Emergency Care facility. Our toys include endoscopy, ventilation, ultrasonography, radiology and a full surgical suite (and an air fryer, toastie maker and coffee machine). There is support and back-up from our on-site Criticalist and very experienced Emergency Clinicians. There is 24-hour support from our network so you can practice at the level you are comfortable at and enjoy, knowing we’ve got your back, even at 2am. The network includes Internal Medicine, Surgery, Critical Care, Oncology, Ophthalmology, Radiology / Imaging and Dermatology. Our sister clinic in Sydney has advanced imaging capabilities for those cases that require, a short one hour drive away, and we have ambulance transfer facilities if needed.

About the Role
Emergency Veterinarian to work across a rotating roster of nights and weekends and some Public Holidays on a shared basis – no vaccinations or dentals in sight!

Part-time hours, 20-36 per week – shifts vary between 3-12 hours in length.

Paid Parental Leave, flexible working arrangements and back-to-work programs.

Social events – if you want a work community, we’ve got one.

ARMIDALE, NORTHERN TABLELANDS - SMALL ANIMAL

Are you looking for a satisfying job?

Wouldn't it be awesome to work up complex medical cases, but have the option to refer if needed?

Are you interested in developing skills quickly with a varied caseload?

Do you want generous remuneration for after hours work?

Are you wanting support both during hours and after hours?

Get in touch with Emma on 0401749582, or em@newenglandvetservices.com.au

A bit about us:

We are a 4.5 vet small animal practice operating out of a brand new purpose built clinic in Armidale NSW. Our days are busy, but run smoothly thanks to our amazing team of support staff with a 2:1 ratio and leverage so you spend more time doing the important vetty things. We focus on quality care, but if we need, referral is only 1.5 hours away for most cases.

Please click here to see photos!

We share on call with a neighbouring clinic so everyone gets lots of time off, but we’re flexible with each other so we can make those important dates like kids events or sporting finals. Because those moments matter.

But probably the most important part is that we have fun. Every day. With music, jokes in our surgical kits, and our Snaps Board to celebrate the little wins. And we support each other in improving through Continuing Education and monthly Vet Talks where we share our learning. Because a rising tide raises all ships.

A tight knit team where we have each other's backs
A place where you can learn and grow (professionally and personally) through mentorship and training.

If being appreciated and well paid are important…

If working in a team where everyone pulls their weight (no double standards) sounds good…

Then read on!

Who are we looking for?

You will be perfect for our team if…

You love the cut and thrust of mixed practice
You have a good sense of humour and can enjoy yourself
You pride yourself on building excellent relationships with your clients (as valued community members and friends- we are more than just the Vet)
You are an experienced vet wanting a change for the better or a keen new grad

Tell me more you say…

Our primary clinic is in Warren but we also have a home in Nyngan and service two satellite clinics each fortnight.

Our clients are the best! Predominantly they are beef and sheep producers and small animal owners. They really appreciate having a local Vet. They love us and we love them!

And what about the cases?

With the smallies we do it all with a heavy focus on preventative medicine. We punch above our weight in terms of practicing high quality medicine.

We see lots of farm accidents…

Think broken legs/torn tendons in sheep yards, mangled feet in motorbike chains, hay forks through abdomens, you name it and we've probably treated it or are about to….

We have the capacity to tackle orthopaedics in house but have the option to refer medical and surgical cases to specialists in Tamworth, Sydney and Wagga Wagga.

We also love being outside, not just to top up our VitD levels but to work with proactive producers to improve the productivity and profitability of their flock/herd. A day out could include: bull testing, preg testing, disease investigation, ambulatory horse work, calvings, vaccinating some farm dogs etc.

If you love variety, we got bucketloads!

If you want to check out where we work and who we are…

What's in it for you?

If you have the skills we've got the package that fits!

We are keen to create a package that suits you (we know one size doesn't always fit all).

We are not just saying this because it sounds good…

We genuinely care about the happiness and fulfillment of our vets. You can be confident that we appreciate and reward our team for high quality and dedicated work. Life-work balance is our priority because long term, we want this to be a place you don't want to leave.

Salary package including afterhours and super ranges from $95k-170k based on recent vet earnings.

Gym/sporting/other membership paid yearly. Conference/cpd allowance roughly $1500 per year but we love investing in out vets if there is something you're really keen on.

Afterhours roster is 1 in 4 and we are nearly always around to help-out (especially for a new/recent grad).

And it's not like we are in the middle of nowhere!

Warren is an agricultural town. There are heaps of young people either on properties or who work at businesses that service the Ag Industry (like ours). Between playing/watching footy, going to the pub/balls/races, having a hit of social tennis or throwing a netball around you'll meet heaps of great people.

Dubbo is an hour away and has everything you need. The airport services Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne daily and we think it's important that everyone gets away regularly.

Got some more questions?

Give us a call anytime to have a chat. We would love to have a yarn about whether we might be just what you're looking for!

For all enquires please phone Andrew (Robbo) on 0429 808 814 or Erica on 0433 490 580 or forward your resume to info@wrvg.com.au

ALBURY, NSW/VIC BORDER - SMALL ANIMAL

Recent grad (12 months experience) to experienced vet.
Very supportive hospital, seeking like-minded Veterinarian
Up to 4 day working week (38hours) available, welcome part-timers @ 2-3 days per week.
Fair share of after-hours and on call is required, including rotational Saturdays.
Team consulting for optimal support
Experience vet by negotiation ($85,000 - $130,000) plus Super

We are a low fuss, enjoy the job and support each other kind of crew! We want you to enjoy your work, connecting with patients and their owners while being supported by our very experienced team of support staff. Our nurses are empowered to do a lot of work, so you can focus on doing the vet work you love.

A bit about us:

Our hospital is 6 years old this year and we have enjoyed a welcomed response from the community and have a well-established and lovely client base. We operate on a 1 vets per day basis currently. When you join the team you will increase our vet staffing to 2 vets on your days of work, always working alongside another vet.

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. Our surgery caseload is varied but we are well equipped to service preventative and routine surgeries through to emergency and complex surgeries. We have a love for dentistry, with a wonderful staged dentistry program.

Please click here to see photos!

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.

A full time vet would work a 4-day week, 8am-6pm and have 1 rostered day off. Pro-rata for part time. Part timers are preferred, as we believe this gives a better work life balance.

After hours is evenly shared (when you’re ready) – currently each vet does one night per week and one weekend per month (Friday night to Monday morning. Call outs are minimal with designated on call times for our clients.

Weekdays 6-9pm
Saturday 6-9pm
Sundays and Public holidays 10am-2pm; 6-9pm

Recent grads would have phone support for all after hours if required.

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 currently a daytime GP hospital with a vet on call for afterhours.

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 plus a triage/discharge area
Idexx in house bloods and other routine in house laboratory equipment

We are registered as a Gold ISFM Cat Friendly Clinic and run Ezyvet as our Practice management software.

We practice hospital excellence and are continually self-evaluating our protocols to ensure best practice is achieved.

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 welcome you to work with us during final year practice placement if you are graduating this year.

For all enquiries please contact: Dr Sally Henry (Veterinarian & Practice Manager) by phone 0402 902 326 or via email manager@alburyanimalhospital.com.au.

ORANGE, CENTRAL WEST – FULL OR PART TIME SMALL ANIMAL

Wanted: A Vet Who Likes Wine, Cake, and Actually Enjoying Their Job!

Some vet jobs are like bad Tinder dates.
They look great on paper, but once you’re there… yikes.
We’re not like that. Promise.

Here’s the deal:

We’re Canobolas Family Pet Hospital in Orange, NSW.

We’ve got a clinic full of capable humans, a fridge full of cake, and a patient list that guarantees you’ll never be bored.

Why New Grads Love Us

You won’t be abandoned to wrestle a vomiting Rottweiler on your first day.
Our nurses and receptionists are actual legends — they run interference so you can be the vet.
No local emergency centre = you’ll see it all (with backup), so your skills grow fast.
You get to try everything before deciding where you want to specialise (or not — general practice here is never boring).

Oh, and Meet Dr Lisa

She’s been here for over 27 years, which in vet years is basically forever. Clients describe her as one of the most amazing vets in NSW (we’re not arguing), and she’s built a clinic where people want to work and clients send thank-you cards and chocolates. We’d love to get her “off the tools” a bit more so she can focus on mentoring — which means if you join us, you get a front-row seat to her knowledge, experience, and possibly her snack stash.

$75K–$130K + relocation support (so you can buy more wine).
Paid CPD + multiple learning platforms.
Flexible rosters around your life.
Cake. Did we mention cake?
Cafés and coffee within walking distance.

You Might Be Our Person If…

You’re friendly and can smile (seriously, it’s our thing).
You like learning, laughing, and maybe bringing cake sometimes.
You want a job that feels less like work and more like a great place to hang out while helping animals.
You value building rapport with clients

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. Happy to consider a short period of causal employment for you to try before you buy, as the only way to truly appreciate a practice is to work within it and its team.
