At Veterinary Specialist Aotearoa (VSA), we’re offering a weekend daytime role designed for veterinarians who want to stay clinically engaged in a high-quality hospital environment - without sacrificing balance.
Why This Role Stands Out
- Weekends only - daytime hours (no overnights)
- Flexible engagement - casual or permanent part-time
- Focus on cases, not just throughput - time to think and collaborate
- Option to pick up additional shifts if desired
About VSA
At Veterinary Specialist Aotearoa, we provide advanced specialist and emergency veterinary care across New Zealand, working closely with referring veterinarians, clients and their pets when they need us most.
Across our three specialist and emergency hospitals, our teams are exposed to a broad and complex caseload, supported by experienced emergency clinicians, specialists, nurses and hospital leaders. We are proud of the standard of care we provide, but equally proud of the way our teams support each other to deliver it.

At VSA, development is not something we simply talk about. Through structured induction, day-to-day clinical support, mentorship and exposure to referral services, we help veterinarians build confidence, strengthen their clinical skills and explore future career pathways at a pace that is right for them.
Why Choose VSA?
- Weekend daytime shifts, with flexible engagement - casual or permanent part-time depending on what suits you
- Opportunity to pick up additional ad hoc shifts when available across both hospitals - Sylvia Park and Auckland West
- Structured induction and support to help you settle in and feel confident
- Access to experienced emergency veterinarians, specialist teams and supportive nursing staff
- Exposure to a varied caseload within a specialist and emergency hospital setting
- Access to advanced imaging, diagnostic tools and specialist-led medical and surgical support
- A collaborative team environment where help, feedback and shared decision-making are part of day-to-day practice
- Career development opportunities for veterinarians looking to grow in emergency, referral or specialist hospital practice
Requirements
- Veterinary degree recognised by the New Zealand Veterinary Council
- Registered or eligible for registration as a veterinarian in New Zealand
- Minimum of 2 years of clinical practice
- Emergency or referral hospital experience would be highly regarded, but is not essential
How to Get in Touch
If you are a qualified veterinarian looking for weekend work within a supportive specialist and emergency hospital environment - whether casual, part-time, or with an eye to something more - we would love to hear from you.

EMPLOYMENT: Full-time/Part-time
Who We Are
ACES is a new purpose-built emergency and specialist referral centre in Perth's Northern Suburbs. We are proudly independent, locally owned, and deeply connected to our community. Every clinical decision is made for the right reasons - excellent medicine, genuine compassion, and the wellbeing of our patients, their families, and our team. If you are passionate about high-level medicine, value teamwork, and want to work in a place where your expertise and wellbeing truly matter, ACES may be the hospital you've been looking for.
Why ACES?
ACES has been thoughtfully designed by two ECC specialists who genuinely love this work. As Diplomates of the American College of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care, Dr Melissa Claus and Dr Elodie Yam have combined their clinical experience with a clear vision: to build an emergency service that delivers exceptional care while remaining sustainable for the people who provide it.
ECC is fast-paced, challenging, and incredibly rewarding, but it can also be demanding. At ACES, we recognise this reality and have intentionally built systems, workflows, and support structures that help clinicians thrive.
Support is practical and meaningful - from access to criticalist input on complex cases, to appropriate staffing and a genuinely kind, collaborative, and non-judgmental team culture. We understand that everyone experiences moments of overwhelm, and we believe good support should be available before it is needed.
Melissa and Elodie are also deeply passionate about teaching and mentorship. With extensive experience supporting students, interns, residents, and ECC clinicians, they are committed to helping team members develop confidence, clinical judgement, and advanced skills. Whether you are early in your ECC career or looking to refine your expertise, you will be supported to grow in the way that best suits you.

OTAKI - KAPITI COAST - NEW EMERGENCY & CRITICAL CARE SERVICE New Position

Kapiti Emergency Vets – Companion Animal Veterinarian – Ōtaki, Kāpiti Coast
Join a growing emergency service for the Kāpiti Coast and surrounding region
Kapiti Emergency Vets is looking for capable, compassionate veterinarians to join our growing after-hours emergency team.
We are a new emergency veterinary service based out of the incredible new purpose-built Vets on Riverbank facility in Ōtaki. KEV was established to provide much-needed after-hours veterinary care for the Kāpiti Coast, Horowhenua and surrounding region, helping local pets and their people access urgent care closer to home.
We are looking for vets who may be interested in covering a regular weeknight shift, along with some weekend day and overnight shifts. There is flexibility around hours and shift patterns depending on what you are looking for, so whether you are after a regular part-time role, additional ECC experience, or a mix of shifts around other work, we would love to chat.
About the role
This role involves providing after-hours emergency and urgent care for companion animal patients in a modern, well-equipped clinic. You'll see a varied caseload and play an important role in supporting local pets, clients, and referring clinics when urgent care is needed most.
You will be working with a supportive and growing team who bring a wealth of emergency and critical care knowledge. While you will need to be comfortable managing urgent cases, you will not be working in isolation without support. We are building a team culture where vets can learn from each other, share knowledge, and continue growing their ECC skills in a practical, supportive environment.
Cases may include anything from acute illness, trauma, toxicity, respiratory distress, blocked cats, GDVs, seizures, collapse, wounds, pain management, end-of-life care, and overnight hospital care. No two shifts are quite the same, which is part of what makes emergency work so rewarding.

What you'll get
- A chance to be part of a new and growing emergency service for the Kāpiti Coast
- A modern, purpose-built facility with excellent equipment and workspace
- A supportive team with strong ECC knowledge and a genuine willingness to help
- Flexible shift options, including weeknights, weekend days and overnights
- The opportunity to build confidence and expand your emergency and critical care skills
- A friendly, down-to-earth team culture where patient care and people both matter
- Competitive remuneration
What we're looking for
We are looking for veterinarians who are confident, calm under pressure, and interested in emergency and after-hours work.
You will have experience in companion animal practice and be comfortable with general medicine, triage, stabilisation, and routine surgery. Emergency experience would be an advantage, but it is not essential if you have a good foundation in general practice, sound clinical judgement, and a willingness to learn.
You will need to be:
- A qualified veterinarian registered, or eligible for registration, with the Veterinary Council of New Zealand
- Confident managing companion animal cases in an after-hours environment
- Comfortable communicating clearly and kindly with clients during stressful situations
- Able to work collaboratively with nurses, support staff, referring clinics, and other vets
- Practical, calm, and patient-focused
- Interested in developing or extending your ECC skills
Most importantly, we are looking for someone who takes patient care seriously, supports the people around them, and wants to be part of building a valuable service for our local community.
Interested?
If you are looking for a flexible emergency role in a beautiful new facility, with a supportive team and the chance to make a real difference for pets and their people across the Kāpiti Coast and surrounding region, we would love to hear from you.

RINGWOOD, EASTERN MELBOURNE VIC - ECC INTERNSHIP New Position

ECC Internship - Melbourne Animal Specialist Hospital
15-month Emergency and Critical Care Internship • Starting November 2026 • Ringwood, Melbourne
Great emergency medicine is our starting point, not our point of difference - every good hospital delivers it. What sets MASH apart is the service around it: we explain the reasoning behind every recommendation and invite the conversation, we tell owners plainly about prognosis and cost, and we never judge the decision an owner makes. We turn ourselves inside-out to make their hard day easier. Our value is the empathy, the quality of our care and our communication wrapped around the medicine - that is what earns owners' trust and keeps them with us.
An internship is where you learn to do both of those at once: the medicine, and the conversation. If that is the vet you want to become, you will be right at home here.
The internship
We are looking for an energetic and hard-working vet with at least 12 months in general or mixed practice to join our Emergency and Critical Care internship, starting November 2026 and running for 15 months.
You will work alongside our experienced emergency clinicians and specialists across ECC, Small Animal Surgery, Diagnostic Imaging, Internal Medicine and Anaesthesia. This is a mentored role by design - you are here to become a better emergency vet, not just to fill a roster gap.
How the internship runs
- The majority of your shifts are rostered alongside one of our two Emergency and Critical Care specialists or one of our four ANZCVS members in emergency medicine. Guidance is there on the case in front of you, at the time you need the answer - not at a case review three days later.
- You progress into managing your own cases as the internship goes on, with the specialist team and senior emergency clinicians around you.
- Night shifts come in during the last third of the internship, once you are well established.
- The roster runs in six-week blocks and averages a minimum of 32 hours a week, with a mix of day consulting, swing and weekend shifts. You have every second weekend off.
About MASH
Melbourne Animal Specialist Hospital (MASH) is a privately owned, patient-focused and fully independent 24-hour emergency and referral hospital in Ringwood, just off EastLink and twenty minutes from the inner suburbs. We opened in 2023 and have grown into a premier referral provider with specialists in emergency and critical care, small animal surgery, internal medicine, diagnostic imaging and anaesthesia. The facility is purpose-built and has everything you would expect of a specialist hospital: on-site CT, digital radiology, a separate ultrasound suite, fluoroscopy, rigid and flexible endoscopy, two theatres, an ICU with oxygen cages and ventilators, separate cat and dog wards, and a full in-house IDEXX laboratory with Radiometer blood gas analysis.
Please click here to see photos! ![]()
The team around you
Dr Merrin Hicks (FANZCVS), one of our Emergency and Critical Care specialists, leads our ECC internship program and takes an active role in developing the clinicians around her. You will also work alongside Dr Alison Stickney (DACVIM) in Internal Medicine, Dr Ralph Webster (DACVS-SA) in Surgery, Dr Mara Schier (DipECVAA) in Anaesthesia and Dr Natalie Webster (DipECVDI) in Diagnostic Imaging.
Our nursing team is highly experienced and genuinely supportive, and the ECC vet team around you is deep in emergency experience.
What we are looking for
- A veterinary degree registrable in Victoria.
- At least 12 months' experience in small animal general practice or mixed practice.
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills - with owners, referring vets and the team.
- Strong time management, and the ability to hold several things at once without dropping any of them.
- A collaborative approach and a genuine appetite to learn.
What we offer
- Remuneration includes shift loadings for swing, weekend and night shifts. On a typical intern roster that works out at approximately $110,000 – $120,000 a year plus superannuation.
- All of your continuing education is provided for by MASH, in-house. Regular tutorials with our specialists, structured teaching and case-based learning are built into the internship.
- Formal feedback sessions and a development review, so you know where you stand and what to work on.
- Genuine multidisciplinary exposure across five specialties in one building.
- Every second weekend off, and a roster built by people who understand that emergency work is only sustainable if the time off is real.
- A comprehensive Employee Assistance Program, and a leadership team that takes team culture seriously.
- On-site meeting rooms, a staff lounge and an automated espresso machine - the small things count at three in the morning.
How to apply
If this sounds like the next step for you, please send your resume and a cover letter to Dr Ralph Webster at ralph@mashvet.com.au
Applications close on 1st October 2026, unless a suitable applicant has been found prior.
If you would like to talk the role through before applying, Ralph is happy to have an informal, confidential conversation. Call the hospital on 1800 VET SURG (1800 838 787) and ask for him.
