Are you a new or recently qualified vet wanting to work in an exciting, progressive and supportive small animal practice in Canberra?

We are sadly losing one of our colleagues interstate and are looking for someone that is keen to come and be a part of our committed, diligent but fun and friendly team.

At Kippax Vet Hospital we work as patient advocates to enhance and extend the lives of our patients. We aim to consistently provide both high quality patient and client care with enthusiasm, compassion and empathy, giving our clients peace of mind that their pets are receiving the best of care. We have 2 experienced surgeons at the practice and 2 trained ultrasonographers.  Most of our vets have a special interest in one or more fields. The practice is affiliated with 3 other small animal practices within Canberra, giving us access to multiple 'specialties' (dentistry, feline medicine, acupuncture and cardiology just to name a few). Our support staff are enthusiastic and highly trained. Continuing education for all our team members is encouraged.

The job consists of a 4 day, 38hr week (fulltime). We do open every Saturday 8-3 and you would be working 2 in 5 weekends. But we always close Sundays and we do no after hours so when you're not here, your time is yours! You will receive one week’s study leave, a study allowance and 4 weeks annual leave. 

An average week's work is made up of consultations, disease diagnosis (including in house laboratory analysis), management and treatment, soft tissue and orthopaedic surgeries, dentistry, radiology, ultrasonography, and behaviour consultations/work up. You will always have a senior vet on hand should you need some assistance or advice.

We do a lot of consults and surgery through the day, so an ability to stay on time, organise yourself and work efficiently to stay on top of lab results, phone calls, insurance forms, follow ups and general everyday business is attractive to us. However, we also have a lot of fun and we all strive to help each other out to achieve a good end result for all. As a practice, we often develop strong ties with our clients and a natural, warm personality will have you fitting right in.

To apply for this role, please send your cover letter and resume to Dr Alison Taylor by email to alisont@kippaxvet.com.au  Any further queries can be directed to this same email.
