Vets with Limited Registration in Australia

These vets are seeking work in the Veterinary and Animal Care industries - they have or are eligible for Limited Registration only. Employers are welcome to contact job seekers directly.

Vets with limited registration are usually required to be under the direct supervision of a fully registered veterinary practitioner. Overseas qualified vets are also required to have a suitable Visa allowing them to work in Australia.

Dr. Jahanzaib Hassan – Victoria Preferred, Australia-wide (posted 24th August) Seeking Restricted Registration Opportunity

I am a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) graduate from the University of Agriculture Faisalabad, Pakistan, with one year of clinical experience in small animal veterinary medicine. I have passed the NAVLE and progressed through the CVMA-NEB pathway. I have also contacted the  Veterinary Practitioners Registration Board of Victoria and have been advised that, based on my DVM qualifications and BCSE + Navle, I am eligible to pursue restricted veterinary registration and work under the required supervision. After completion of CPE I will be able to work without supervision.

I am currently looking for a suitable supervised veterinary opportunity anywhere in Australia, with a particular interest in Victoria. Although my clinical experience has primarily been with dogs and cats, I am very enthusiastic about expanding my skills and would especially welcome the opportunity to learn mixed practice, equine medicine, and exotic animal medicine under experienced veterinarians.

I would ideally like to join a family-owned or privately operated veterinary practice, but I am equally open to opportunities within established corporate veterinary networks. My goal is not simply to complete my restricted-registration requirements; I am looking to build a meaningful, long-term professional relationship with a practice where I can contribute, continue learning, and ideally remain part of the team after achieving full and independent registration.

I am highly motivated, enthusiastic about veterinary medicine, and committed to developing my clinical skills. I am also prepared to cover my own relocation, travel, accommodation, and associated expenses. I am open to discussing opportunities with practices across Australia and would be happy to provide my CV, examination results, and supporting documentation upon request.

Dr Ayan Attique Dar – Victoria Preferred, Australia-wide (posted 24th August) Seeking Supervised Veterinary Position

Hello everyone,

My name is Dr Ayan Attique Dar, an internationally qualified veterinarian from Pakistan with one year of clinical experience in companion-animal practice, primarily working with dogs and cats.

I have successfully passed the North American Veterinary Licensing Examination (NAVLE) and the Basic Clinical Sciences Examination (BCSE) through the Canadian Veterinary Medical Association's National Examining Board pathway. I have also been in direct communication with the Veterinary Practitioners Registration Board of Victoria (VPRBV) regarding my eligibility to practise under supervision in Victoria. I intend to complete my license and would love to form a long term commitment with an employer as well.

I am currently seeking a supervised veterinary position in Australia, with Victoria being my preferred location. I am also open to suitable opportunities in other Australian states and territories, particularly where a practice is willing to provide appropriate supervision and support my progression towards full registration.

My clinical experience has primarily involved small-animal general practice, including consultations, clinical examinations, diagnosis and treatment of common medical conditions, preventive healthcare, inpatient patient care, client communication and day-to-day management of dogs and cats in a busy clinical environment.

I am particularly interested in joining a practice where I can continue developing my clinical skills within the Australian veterinary system while working towards completion of my remaining licensing requirements. I value mentorship, constructive feedback and teamwork, and I am looking for a practice where I can establish a long-term professional relationship rather than simply work temporarily while completing registration. Although my experience is in small animal vet med but i would love to learn and broaden my horizon into exotics, bovines and others.

I am very willing to relocate, including to regional or rural areas, if the right opportunity is available. I am also prepared to cover my initial relocation expenses, including airfare and other costs, so that these costs do not need to be a barrier for a prospective employer.

I would be particularly interested in a practice that is willing to provide supervision and support me through the registration process, with the intention of remaining with the practice and continuing my career in Australia after achieving full registration.

Key details:

I would be very happy to provide my CV, examination results, references and further documentation to any practice interested in discussing an opportunity.

Kind regards,

Dr Ismail Syed, Australia-wide (open to regional/rural) (posted 20th August)

Hello everyone,

My name is Dr Ismail Syed, a small animal veterinarian from Hyderabad, India, currently working as an Associate Veterinarian at a 24/7 multi-specialty companion animal hospital.

I recently passed the Australian Veterinary Examination (AVE) MCQ in April 2024 and am now preparing for the AVE Clinical Examination while actively seeking a supervised Limited Registration position in Australia. My goal is to join a practice for the long term — I'm looking for a clinic willing to sponsor and mentor me through to full registration, and to build a lasting career with the same team rather than move on once registered. I'm very open to regional and rural locations, and happy to consider mixed animal practice alongside small animal work.

I have 3+ years of clinical experience across general practice, surgery and emergency care, including:

Previously, I worked in a high-volume shelter practice performing 1,500+ sterilisation surgeries alongside emergency, trauma and medical caseloads, which gave me a strong practical foundation across a wide range of presentations. I also spent time as a Lairage Veterinarian and Meat Inspector working with cattle and buffalo, including pregnancy assessment and pre-slaughter examination, so I'm comfortable handling and assessing large animals as well as companion animals.

I'm based in Hyderabad, India, and open to relocating anywhere in Australia, including regional and rural areas. I hold a current Telangana veterinary registration (valid 2022–2027) and achieved PTE Academic 89/90. I do require employer visa sponsorship, and I'm very open to discussing a structured pathway — Limited Registration now, support through the AVE Clinical Examination, and continuing on with the practice afterwards as a long-term team member.

I'd be glad to send my CV and references, and would welcome a conversation with any practice — metro, regional or mixed — looking for a committed, hands-on vet to grow with their team.

Kind regards,
Dr Ismail Syed

12+ years Overseas Experience - Full Work Rights - No Visa Sponsorship Needed

My name is Jason Olalia, and I am an overseas-qualified veterinarian with more than 12 years of experience in companion animal practice, livestock health, and government veterinary services. Having recently passed the Australasian Veterinary Examination (AVE) MCQ, I am now seeking a supervised clinical position where I can further develop my skills under mentorship while preparing for the AVE Final Clinical Examination.

Throughout my career, I have gained broad clinical experience in companion animal medicine and surgery, including consultations, soft tissue surgery, preventive healthcare, diagnostic sampling, interpretation of laboratory results, anaesthesia monitoring, and inpatient case management. My background also includes working with the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) of the United Nations (UN), where I supported livestock development programs, delivered veterinary training, and provided technical advice to farmers and local stakeholders to improve ruminant health and production.

More recently, I have been working in Australia as an Authorised Officer alongside government veterinarians, where I have developed a strong understanding of Australian animal welfare legislation, biosecurity and export requirements, livestock production systems, and regulatory practices. This experience has strengthened my appreciation of the high standards expected within the Australian veterinary profession.

While I bring extensive veterinary experience, I recognise that practising in Australia requires adapting to local clinical protocols, professional standards, and client expectations. I am enthusiastic about learning, value constructive feedback, and enjoy working collaboratively within a supportive team. I am confident assisting with consultations, surgery, anaesthesia, diagnostics, and hospital case management under appropriate supervision, and I am equally happy to support the wider practice by helping with nursing duties, patient care, administrative tasks or any other responsibilities required.

My goal is to join a practice that values mentorship, teamwork, continuous learning, and high-quality patient care. I am looking for an opportunity to contribute meaningfully to the team while progressing through the AVE pathway, with the aim of becoming a capable, trusted, and long-term member of the practice.

Thank you for considering my application. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my experience, work ethic, and commitment to professional development could benefit your practice.

Isabel, Australia-Wide (posted 18th May)

Hello everyone,

My name is Isabel, and I am a Spanish internationally qualified veterinarian currently based in Western Australia.

I graduated in 2024 and subsequently completed a 12-month equine internship at Ascot Equine Veterinarians in Perth, where I held limited veterinary registration in Australia. Following my internship, I dedicated my time to preparing for the Australasian Veterinary Examination (AVE) Preliminary (MCQ), which I successfully passed in April 2026. I am now eligible for limited veterinary registration in Australia and an eligible candidate for the Final (Clinical) Examination.

Over the past year, while preparing for the AVE, I developed a renewed interest in companion animal medicine and general practice. I am now highly motivated to continue broadening my clinical scope and to further develop into a confident and well-rounded veterinarian through a structured and supportive practice environment.

I am currently seeking:

My veterinary background has been primarily equine-focused and includes:

I am currently undertaking the Australian Veterinary Association Return to Work Program focused on companion animal practice while preparing for the AVE Final (Clinical) Examination later this year.

Although I would be new to small animal practice, I am very comfortable working in fast-paced clinical environments, referral hospitals, emergency settings, and internship-style positions.

Colleagues and supervisors describe me as a highly competent and rapidly developing clinician with strong clinical reasoning, sound judgement, and the ability to remain calm and effective under pressure. I am trusted with sole ambulatory cases and on-call responsibilities, and I work confidently both independently and within a team. I am known for being organised, honest, supportive, and proactive, with a strong willingness to assist others while also seeking guidance when needed. I have demonstrated the ability to manage both routine and complex cases, including emergencies such as colic and septic synovial structures, and I am attentive and detail-oriented in hospitalised patient care. I am also recognised for my strong communication skills, professionalism, and commitment to continuous learning and development.

Hello all.

I am an Irish citizen, working as a Veterinary Surgeon in the UK with 7 years experience. I am currently eligible for limited registration via employee sponsorship for the Temporary Skill Shortage visa (subclass 482). I am looking for a full time (would consider part time for the right role) permanent role at a small animal clinic in Queensland, Victoria, New South Wales, Western Australia, or anywhere else where I may be eligible to register with the State Veterinary Board via this visa.

I obtained my Doctor of Veterinary Medicine in Warsaw University of Life Sciences, Poland, in 2019, and have ever since been RCVS registered and working in the UK. I started out in mixed animal practice, giving me the confidence from day one to think on my own two feet and problem solve, through being part of the on call rota. I followed my true calling for companion animal medicine in 2022 and ever since have worked in small animal GP clinics as well as a 24h Hospital, taking on solo inpatient and night shifts, expanding my confidence in triaging and knowledge in ECC.

Over the years I have gained confidence in soft tissue surgery and would consider myself skilled and a fast learner in this area. I would love to expand on my skills in this area and would also be very open to gaining more experience in diagnostic imaging and exoctics/wildlife. 

My colleagues would describe me as very easygoing, patient and empathetic. I have been commended several times on my patience and kindness when mentoring staff members and my gentle nature in supporting clients through end of life consults.

I am seeking a role that can provide: 

Please do not hesitate to get in contact if you think I would be a good fit for your clinic and I would be happy to provide my CV via email and discuss the role further.

I am Peyman, an Iranian/Persian vet who graduated in 2021 and currently finishing my PhD. I have passed the MCQ on Apr 2026 (first attempt) and now I am seeking for a casual or part-time limited vet job in any clinic in Sydney, if close to south-west, it is better since I am currently based in Campbelltown, NSW 2560.

I was working as a vet nurse since I started my PhD (Sep 2023) in a clinic nearby and I am familiar with Petzbooq system, medicines, surgery, anesthesia, dental, discharges, boarding, almost anything. Back in Iran, I have done castrations/spays, laparotomy, splenectomy, gastrotomy, … and specially because I have seen it in this clinic, I am confident to do them. Moreover, my current project is on sciatic nerve of rat, and I am doing my dream work which is surgery.

I am still on visa subclass 500 (I can even work full-time since I am a PhD), but I will move on to post-grad visa (for 3 years) after my graduation between Sep/Dec (I have full score 90/90 PTE and all the documents are ready), so no visa restrictions.

I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Noritha Fernando, Melbourne, VIC (posted 9th October)

Hi,

My name is Noritha Fernando.

I have successfully cleared AVE part 1, MCQ preliminary exam 2025 and planning for final clinical exams in 2026.

I'm a veterinarian from Sri Lanka with over fifteen years of experience in small animal medicine and surgery.

I have worked as a vet nurse in several clinics/hospitals in Melbourne for nearly three years since I'm based in Melbourne, Australia. During my vet nursing career, I have been able to streamline my veterinarian knowledge, experience and skills with Australian standards and expectations.

I'm looking forward to opportunities to work as a vet with limited registration, under supervision in full time/part time positions. I hold a Business Innovation and Investment Visa" (subclass 188) so have full working rights and do not require sponsorship.

I'm confident that I could be a valuable addition to your veterinary team.

For more information, please feel free to reach me through my email; norithafernando@gmail.com or through my mobile no;0431 117 020.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Hello!

I am a Permanent Resident of Australia and an internationally trained veterinarian who successfully passed the Australian Veterinary Examination – MCQ in April 2025. I am now eligible to work under the supervision of a registered veterinarian across Australia and am currently preparing for the clinical component of the exam.
I am currently based in Adelaide, where I am actively shadowing at a small animal hospital, gaining practical exposure to consultations, diagnostics, and patient care. I am confident in conducting consultations independently under supervision, and I have developed solid skills in performing and interpreting fine needle aspirates (FNAs).

My growing clinical skillset includes:

I am highly adaptable, committed to continuous learning, and thrive in collaborative clinical environments. I work calmly under pressure, value patient well-being, and aim to support both the veterinary team and clients with professionalism and empathy.

Although I’m currently located in Adelaide, I am open to relocating anywhere in Australia for the right opportunity under supervision. I would be very grateful for any opportunity to join a team where I can contribute meaningfully while continuing to grow professionally.

Hello, My name is Dr. Muhammad Azhar Shaheen, a qualified veterinarian with over eight years of experience in mixed animal practice in Pakistan, where I worked extensively with both small and large animals. In addition, I have more than eight years of expertise in a veterinary disease diagnostic laboratory, where I gained strong skills in diagnostics, laboratory interpretation, and integration of clinical findings.

I am pleased to share that I have successfully passed the North American Veterinary Licensing Examination (NAVLE) and completed three of the four steps of the ECFVG certification, with the Clinical Proficiency Examination (CPE) scheduled as my final step toward full veterinary registration.

In the meantime, I am very keen to join an esteemed practice as an Associate Veterinarian role, particularly in a mixed-animal or small-animal setting, where I can contribute meaningfully while also gaining valuable local experience.

I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to discuss how my background aligns with your team’s needs. I am open to relocating and adapting to your work protocols. Visa sponsorship or assistance would be highly valued, and I am available for interviews at your convenience.

Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the possibility of contributing to your practice.

Good day!

I am an Australian citizen with a doctorate in Veterinary Medicine from the University of the Philippines. I recently passed the MCQ exam (April 2025) and am currently studying for the second exam. I would greatly appreciate any opportunities that may give me practical experience in the veterinary field in Australia.

In the Philippines I worked as a junior veterinarian for companion animals. My role involved the following:

I am committed to continuous learning and adapt quickly to new concepts or techniques I encounter. I am a proficient multi-tasker, highly functional under pressure, and am detail oriented. My greatest motivation in this field of work lies in providing exceptional care for my patients and supporting owners with compassion and clarity. I strive to ensure their well-being through the highest standards of veterinary medicine.
