Operations Manager – Veterinary Group (WA Based)

Operations Manager – Veterinary Group (WA Based)

Lead. Improve. Inspire.

Our group of privately owned veterinary practices across Western Australia is looking for an experienced and motivated Operations Manager to step into a key leadership role. Following the recent departure of our previous Operations Manager due to health reasons, we're looking for someone who can continue the positive momentum and help take our group to the next level.

We've grown rapidly over the past 18 months — now with 9 clinics across WA, and more on the horizon. We're building something different, but with plenty of work to do to establish a network that values clinical autonomy, invests in growth, and keeps patient care and team culture at the heart of everything we do.

About the Role

This is a hands-on, relationship-driven leadership role working directly with our Practice Managers, Clinical Directors, and support office team. The successful candidate will thrive on being out and about — visiting clinics, building relationships, and supporting teams in person.

You'll:

  • Support the day-to-day operations and performance of our clinics
  • Coach and develop Practice Managers to lead strong, values-based teams
  • Work closely with our recently appointed Clinical Directors to support the delivery of great medicine that underpins a healthy, sustainable business
  • Identify and implement improvements in workflow, efficiency, and client experience
  • Help onboard and integrate new acquisitions into the group
  • Ensure alignment across clinics with group objectives while respecting local identity

This is not a desk job — it's ideal for someone who loves being on the road, connecting with teams in person, and actively supporting clinics where it matters most.

What We're Looking For

  • Proven experience in multi-site operations or senior management (veterinary preferred)
  • A natural leader who is practical, approachable, and able to drive accountability
  • Strong communicator and trusted partner to clinical and non-clinical teams alike
  • A hands-on operator who enjoys being present, visible, and helpful in clinic
  • Someone who thrives in a fast-moving, growth-focused environment

Why Join Us?

  • Be part of a genuinely supportive, collaborative team that's committed to approaching things differently
  • Influence the future of a growing veterinary group
  • Work with talented clinic teams who care deeply about their people, clients, and patients
  • Competitive salary + tools of the trade + flexibility

If you're looking for a role where you can truly make a difference — not just to business outcomes, but to the people behind them — we'd love to hear from you.

Application Questions:

  • Which of the following statements best describes your right to work in Australia?
  • How many years' experience do you have as an operations manager?
  • What's your expected annual base salary?
  • Do you have a current Australian driver's licence?
  • Do you own or have regular access to a car?

Note: The expected salary should be added to your profile for insights.
