Further information on the area:

Shepparton is a regional hub with a population of 30,000 in town and 60,000 in close proximity. It takes 15 minutes to drive from one side of town to the other and you can live on affordable acreage and still be 10 minutes from the clinic. There is an excellent Grammar school and Catholic schools as well as multiple state schools to choose from. We have a La Trobe University Campus and Tafe. There is a regional hospital in the centre of town as well as a private one next door. The sport facilities are fantastic with something for everyone.

There are >30 places to eat at in town with wineries / tourist destinations only a 30 minute drive away. It is an easy day trip to the snow fields or to Melbourne. We have plenty of sunshine and dry summers with average maximum temperatures of 31 degrees C in January and frosty Junes with average maximum of 13 degrees C. But it is never too hot or cold for long as we experience the 4 seasons here with a Mediterranean climate. Shepparton itself is flat which is great for bike riding but the snow fields and mountains are only 2 hours away.

The cost of living in this area is very low relative to the city which allows for a fantastic quality of life and we believe in plenty of time to be with family or explore or learn.

ECHUCA, VIC/NSW BORDER - FULL OR PART TIME SMALL ANIMAL, PURCHASE OPTION

Our dynamic small animal practice is looking for an enthusiastic Full or Part time Vet to join and (hopefully) buy our team. We are currently a 1.5 vet practice but have been turning potential clients away as we just don’t have enough time to give them the high quality care we give all our clients and pets…especially since one of us has just had a baby and is having important time off to help her grow!

It is important that we have the time to work cases up properly whilst being able to maintain a work/life balance so we don’t go insane and leave the profession.

Does this sound familiar? Have you worked somewhere where it’s “go, go, go” with no thought for you or your client and patient’s welfare? 5-10min consults, towing the company line and pushing products you don’t believe in? That’s just SO not us. We are an independent practice whose vets, experienced, qualified vet nurses and Practice Manager “Minnie” (she’s a tortoiseshell with a positive attitude) really get on and enjoy our jobs.

ABOUT YOU:
The ideal applicant will have 5-10+ years’ experience and is dreaming about owning our practice. They will be passionate about managing cases, continuing education and communicating well with patients, co-workers and clients.

Being a couple of hours from Melbourne, we are generally able to work up interesting cases ourselves (which is very satisfying!) although we can refer if required.

The vet clinic is a purpose-renovated, heritage-listed building with a great feel. We have quite a few fun “toys” including in-house biochemistry, microscopy, blood pressure monitoring, pulse oximetry, capnography, ultrasound, IV infusion pumps and BAIR Hugger.

Please click here to see photos!

We pride ourselves on having happy patients who don’t dread coming to the vet – “bribery and corruption” of pets with treats is standard and someone with an interest in behaviour would be preferred. A love of cats is a must – “Minnie” is very discerning!

Located on the mighty Murray River, top class restaurants, paddlesteamers, wineries, horse riding and waterskiing make Echuca a fabulous place to live. We have a great clientele with minimal after hours calls (our clients really are considerate!).

So if you love being a vet – especially if you’re wanting to own your own practice, and need to keep learning and improving like us, please contact:
