- UK or Irish‑qualified veterinarians eligible for registration with the AVBC (Australian Veterinary Board Council)

Visa options:

🗓️ Working Holiday Visa (417)

- Stay up to 3 years, work and travel

📋 Sponsorship Visa (482)

- Long‑term role (2–4 years), employer‑supported, potential path to permanent residency
