Are you seeking a great work environment? Want to enjoy coming to work? Enjoy a positive team culture that values you and your well-being!

A multi-site practice in southeast Queensland is looking for another vet to join the team.

The role will see the vet join a 4-5 vet team with varying levels of experience. The senior vets hold an ANZCVS membership in surgery and a postgraduate qualification in Emergency and Critical Care. They pride themselves on working collaboratively, being approachable, and they love discussing cases. Vets are supported by an experienced nursing team who are hands-on in assisting vets with cases and work hard to ensure the days run as smoothly as possible.

About the position:

– Small animal only role, predominantly based at the main surgery

– A varied caseload which can be adjusted to suit special interests

– Full time position in an attractive four-day week, with an extra day off following a rostered weekend (part-time applicants also considered)

– Shared after-hours with 1 night a week and 1 weekend in 6 on-call (Vet nurses take the calls and only ring you if needed, and the deposit has been taken!)

– Support always from experienced vets and a strong nursing team in a well-equipped clinic

– 2-3 vets rostered on daily, with experienced vets always available to assist.

About you:

– A vet who enjoys the challenge of general practice; comfortable going from vaccinations, to working up more complex cases, to routine surgery

– Excellent communication skills with both clients and colleagues and willingness to work as part of a team

– Positive ‘can-do’ attitude who offers excellent patient care and client experience

There are plenty of additional benefits that come with working at this practice. Some of these include paid AVA membership, VSB registration, paid parental leave, an additional day of leave per year, genuine support for CE, paid volunteer leave, various retail, travel and service discounts, plus lots more.

The employer is willing to assist with a work permit (sponsorship) for suitable overseas candidates. Applicants must have a Bachelor of Veterinary Science (or equivalent) and be eligible for registration as a veterinary practitioner in Australia.

This well-equipped clinic has all of the usual toys, including digital radiology (diagnostic and dental), ultrasound, a full in-house laboratory suite (including IDEXX, Procyte, Catalyst, iStat, Sedivue, Imagyst and coags), monitoring equipment and TonoVet.

The area offers excellent educational and recreational facilities. There is beautiful colonial architecture, outstanding museums, over twenty parks and sporting grounds, and beautiful beaches nearby. There are a lot of horses in the area for those interested in riding, plus all the usual sporting facilities. The weather is perfect year-round, and you can drive to the beach in 30 minutes.
