ETHELTON, NW ADELAIDE - FULL TIME SMALL ANIMAL New Position

Launch Your Veterinary Career Right in 2020
Port Adelaide Veterinary Clinic - NEW GRADUATE VETERINARIAN

After years of study, you are about to make the single most important decision you will have made to date – who to entrust with your guidance and growth as a new graduate Veterinarian.

Choose well, and all the hard work will pay off as you grow and hone your skills in a supportive clinical environment.

Get it wrong, and in 3 to 6 months’ time you may well be looking for an escape hatch, deflated and questioning your decision to ever become a Vet.

The problem is:

There is not a lot of guidance for new grads about making the decisions;
You don’t know what you don’t know;
Not all clinics are created equal (your experience and the investment made in you will vary massively).

At Port Adelaide Veterinary Clinic, we are aware of the challenges you face. We also believe that you are about to embark on an exciting and rewarding career that can and should bring you great fulfilment.

Launching your career as a Vet should not stress you out. Worrying about how you will handle yourself in a consult room, your first surgery, whether you know enough or what might happen if you make a mistake shouldn’t overshadow the excitement of you achieving a career milestone in a wonderful industry.

At Port Adelaide we understand you. We understand the need to launch your career right.

We have an amazing opportunity for a stand out new graduate.

Why is it so amazing?

You will be supported every step of the way

By shadowing our experienced veterinarians for at least 4 weeks
Attending a 10 week Post Graduate Course – weekly sessions away from the practice, focusing on professional and personal development (the art and science of being a Vet)
No sole charge for 3 months (and then only with direct access to support, and on a limited basis)
Weekly professional development meetings with our experienced Veterinarians
A high Support Staff to Vet ratio (there are always extra hands available to help)
You will not need to talk through treatment costs with clients (just focus on your passion for treating animals)

Your professional and technical growth will be encouraged

You will form part of a Continuous Education Program that will assist to grow your skills
We will encourage you to develop areas of interest as you grow more confident
We have a varied surgical case load to advance your skills
You will have support to work up cases in line with exceptional standards of veterinary medicine
You will have the opportunity to advance your proficiency in Dentistry

You will become part of a truly incredible team

Anyone can say that but:

Every day we open our doors to care not only for our patients but for each other
Our primary vision is to make Port Adelaide Vet a compelling place to both visit and work
Every team member in our practice has the opportunity to bring value, to grow and to become a part of something that we would consider to be exceptional within the industry
The Core Values we all live by (Care, Service and Shared Responsibility)

You will be rewarded personally for your efforts

We believe you should work to live and not live to work. What that means is:

You will work the equivalent of 4 out of 7 days
NO after hours and NO Sundays
