Late June to August 2025 (Lilydale~Victoria)
We're on the lookout for a passionate locum vet to step into our shoes while one of our team takes a well-earned break! If you're available from late June to August 2025 and love working in a friendly, down-to-earth clinic, we'd love to hear from you.
Lilydale Vet Centre is a welcoming, family-style small animal practice with a loyal bunch of clients and a supportive, experienced nursing team. You'll be taking the lead in a sole charge role, but you'll never feel alone—we're all about collaboration, communication, and making sure everyone feels confident and backed up.
About You:
- Comfortable working solo with solid general practice experience
- Confident in routine surgeries (think mature dog speys, dentals, lump removals, etc.)
- Ideally 2–3+ years of clinical experience
- Clear, kind communicator who enjoys being part of a team
- Committed to delivering great medicine and client care
What You'll Love About Working With Us:
- A cheerful and relaxed team who genuinely enjoy their work
- Great equipment: in-house lab (PT/aPTT, Vcheck), ultrasound, digital X-ray, dental X-ray, capnography, and more
- Cat-only consultation and hospital room for our feline friends
- Access to a nearby 24/7 hospital in Mitcham for advanced imaging and specialist support (CT, fluoroscope, endoscopy, CO2 laser, etc.)
- A mix of medicine and surgery with the freedom to refer in-house when things get tricky
- A vibe that balances professionalism with approachability—we love what we do, and we want you to feel the same
If you're a vet who likes making a real difference and enjoys working with a team that values both good medicine and good humour, this might just be the perfect fit.
