PARA HILLS, NORTHERN ADELAIDE - FULL OR PART TIME SMALL ANIMAL

Full Time, Small Animal Vet required South Australia.

A wonderful opportunity has arisen for an experienced vet to join our seven-vet team. We are looking for someone full time, or close to full time. The applicant must have great people skills, can work well with the team, and communicate well with clients. We want someone wanting to practice high quality medicine and surgery within a small animal practice. If you don't like surgery, then that's okay too as we would be happy to have someone in a purely medical role. We have four part time vets and two full time vets currently. We can offer flexible working hours, Saturdays 1 in 2 (or 2 in 3 depending on negotiation) and, every second weekend a long weekend. All our after hours are referred to an emergency centre. We have an amazing team of vets and nurses who can provide a very supportive environment if needed. We have lots of mod cons such as ultrasound, digital xray, dental xrays, inhouse bloods, and we have great back up referral services for CT/MRI/Scoping. We are just in the middle of adding a large office/staff room.

We like to support our staff and encourage them to follow their interests outside of work as well as at work. We encourage continuing education. We have several vets interested in wildlife and rabbits so see a reasonable amount of wildlife and rabbits (enough to keep life interesting!). We try and match clients to vets and love to work with the strengths that each vet has so have specific vets that see rabbits, birds, koalas, etc, or that do specific surgeries such as MMPTTAs or other orthopaedics, or ultrasounds. We don't expect every vet to be able to do every facet of vet work and really encourage each vet to find the things that they enjoy doing and excel at and we will try and book more of those in specifically for that vet. (and yes, we all share the routine general stuff!).

Please click here to see photos!

As a clinic we are held in high esteem and like being a part of the community. We are often involved in things like caring for bushfire victims, and helping out where we can.

For a computer walk through- https://www.google.com/maps

Our website needs to be updated (we have improved since then) but feel free to have a look at that too!- http://parahillsvet.com.au/

We try and look after all of our staff to provide the best quality of life that we can!. If you are looking at moving from interstate then we can try and help with that too.

Remuneration will depend on skills and experience but will be above award.

If you think that this job might be right for you then please either PM me, call my mobile on 0417 818 878 or email trudyseidel@yahoo.com for more information or with your resume.

MEADOWS, ADELAIDE HILLS - FULL OR PART TIME MIXED PRACTICE

Is there anyone out there that can help us with our quest??

We are on the hunt for a very rare creature, an experienced Magicali veterinarii (more commonly known as a "Mixed Practice Veterinarian").

These creatures are very rare as they have the extraordinary ability of coping with and enjoying a very diverse & varied mixed case load. In our practice that would be 60% small animals, 30% equine work with a bent for reproduction & dentistry & 10% farm animals such as sheep, goats, alpacas etc. Ideally this creature would really like to use or develop skills in the area of equine reproduction & dentistry.

Please click here to see photos!

When we find one of these endangered species, they will have an awesome team of well-trained nurses that would look after & support them as well as a very supportive boss. We have lots of toys that they can play with & are always open to buy more toys if required. We also value having fun & love doing training with any special interests always encouraged & supported.

We already have 3 of these extraordinary creatures and are searching for a fourth so that we can have a great work/life balance (think 4 day week and shared 1:4 after-hours). Some of us love travelling so we are always open to longer holidays to enable those overseas memory making trips.

In order to secure our latest addition, we offer a great work environment and above award pay (for both wages and after hours). Ideally, we would like to find one of these creatures to welcome into our caring environment by the beginning of October. Due to our case load this position is not suitable for a new graduate - we are really searching for a creature with experience looking to settle down. We would gladly consider a creature requiring either a full time or a part time role.

So, if you are one of these endangered species (or happen to know of one) looking to settle down in a great environment only 45 minutes out of Adelaide in the beautiful Adelaide Hills, contact us!

BERRI, RIVERLAND REGION - FULL TIME MIXED

FULL TIME MIXED VETERINARIAN – 4 DAY WORK WEEK
SOUTH AUSTRALIA - RIVERLAND REGION

Come join our team; we are passionate about what we do and the quality of service that we provide whilst still not forgetting to add fun to the mix. Every day is different, and we are fortunate that we have opportunities to see such a wide and varied array of animals as well as interesting and challenging medical and surgical cases which we will often follow though, referring only minimally. We are very supportive of each other and are very proud of the capabilities of our support staff utilising their skills and interests to improve work fulfilment and better assist our Veterinarians.

We are a mixed country practice, based in the Riverland along the River Murray in South Australia (2.5 hours’ drive from Adelaide). We currently employ 5 full-time and 2 part-time vets and are looking to increase this number. Our work is mostly (85-90%) small animal with the remainder being an interesting mixture of cattle, horses, sheep, goats, pigs, exotics and wildlife work. We have four clinics within the Riverland Region with a well equipped state of the art hospital in Berri (providing 24 hour emergency care) and three additional clinics located in Renmark, Loxton and Waikerie. We also service a remote Mallee town once a month to assist local communities.

Recreational activities in the area are many and varied including organised sport, visiting wineries, arts, water-skiing, camping and generally enjoying the beautiful country environment. The Riverland is a great place to live and visit. For more information on the area please check out www.destinationriverland.org.au

Our hospital facilities include digital xray, a Toshiba ultrasound machine, electrosurgery unit, IDEXX haematology and biochemistry, clotting time readers, PT/aPTT, feline blood typing, excellent anaesthetic monitoring equipment (inc. ECG, PetMap, BP), IV fluid warmers, ventilator, a range of orthopaedic equipment (inc. pins, plates, TTA, ext fix, bone grafts, string of pearl plating system), fluid pumps, Icare Tonovet, IM3 dental machine & Vet-Tome. We have recently added laser therapy with our machine capable of therapeutic ultrasound and tens also. We have dedicated cat and dog wards (including both cages and runs), separate surgery rooms for clean and sterile surgery and a large and spacious treatment area.

Please click here to see photos!

Our ideal candidates would be Experienced Mixed Practice Veterinarians – partnership opportunities can be discussed if desired. You would be experienced professionally, have leadership qualities and a keenness to help mentor and support less experienced team members. Competent recent graduates are welcome to apply also. You must be capable of large animal work.

The role is full time with 4 weeks annual leave and an additional one week conference leave with conferences, travel and accommodation generally also paid for after 12 months of full time employment. Flexible work hours can also be negotiated. After hours on call is currently shared equally between 5 vets, with 2 days off after a weekend on call. Nurses are rostered to be available and take the on-call telephone as extra assistance afterhours. On-call remuneration is generous. Salary range is $55 to $90k, depending on experience.

Our clinic looks for personal fulfillment, adventure and to “Save the World”. We have held homeless vaccination and health check drives in our community, provide assistance for victims of domestic violence with their pets during times of emergency and hold community cat desexing programs monthly. Seeking adventure in our role and lives is something that our clinic owner lives and embraces and he has over a number of years sent staff to Nepal, Leh (remote India) and the Cook Islands. We have worked with Beyond Borders and individual clinics to arrange these trips.

We seek to constantly improve; having worked in the past with a Veterinary Practice Coach, and running programs for interested team members doing personal development with Lincoln Institute Emerging Leaders.
