Small Animal Veterinarian, North Brisbane. Australia. $90-110K pa DOE

Ever wondered what it would be like to move and work in Australia?

The outdoor lifestyle, the mountains, the beaches, the long blue-sky days, and their ‘happy-go-lucky’ attitude to life.

You are an adventurous vet and the thought of working overseas excites you.

We are lucky to be working with a truly independent practice, zero targets, upselling or corporate guidelines to follow here. A practice where your voice and ideas matter is hiring for growth. Ideally, they are looking for a vet with over two years of experience, a kind empathetic vet, and a real team player who wants the best for patients and practice but they will also look at a New Grad.

This practice commits to fostering a positive and flexible work environment that supports both your career and personal life. A practice that believes that a balanced work life is essential to providing outstanding care to its patients.

They don’t believe in working their vets into the ground they want you to be at your best when it matters most.

They are located within a 15-minute drive to 3 specialist practices who are always willing to assist with help and advice with any cases and encourage visits to their facilities. They also run continuing education seminars and conferences.

They’re interested in improving all their vets and investing in them. Because it’s mutually beneficial. They love what they do. And that makes them better vets. They collaborate, they discuss cases, and they learn from each other.

The majority of their cases are vaccinations, skin issues, ears, lumps, lameness, dental issues, acute illness, and chronic illness. They offer the gold standard of treatment to all their clients; it’s the care they are bothered about the most without you having to worry about any set monetary targets or number of procedures that need to be performed.

Working hours: You can work a 76hr fortnight. Either 4 days of 9.5 hr a week structured so has a 4 day weekend every 2nd and a 2 day weekend the other. OR 5 x 7.6 hr days with 2 starts at 8:30 and 3 starts at 10:30 a week. There will be sole charge some of the time depending on experience.

So, what’s in it for you?

Salary is $90-$110k, DOE, 5 weeks holiday plus stats, pro-rated. Memberships paid, relocation assistance, plus some accommodation on arrival.

Based in North Brisbane there are plenty of shops locally, sports facilities, and several large shopping centres. Brisbane is also hosting the Olympics in the summer of 2032! You are a short drive to great beaches with the chance to whale watch. With excellent transport links, less than an hour from the Gold Coast, mild winters and summers topping 30 degrees what’s not to like?

Choosing a new practice is a big decision, you are a good vet who wants opportunities to learn, develop, work with a like-minded team, and a place you can call home.

So, what’s next?

Send your CV, don’t worry if it’s not up to date. We can’t get the whole story in a job ad so ask any questions. I’ll answer honestly, no hard sell.

Enjoy your new vet adventure on the other side of the world
