Veterinary Director

Greencross Upper Coomera isn't a big, flashy hospital. It's a small, close-knit clinic with two consult rooms, a loyal client base, and a team that genuinely looks out for each other. Our Practice Manager, Aileen, knows the clinic inside and out (you can meet her in this short video tour where she'll show you around).

We are offering $15,000 allowance to get you established in the role.

Sponsorship is available for overseas-qualified vet with a recognised degree, with guidance from a dedicated migration lawyer.

The role

Lead the clinical direction, mentor the team and shape how the day runs. Prior director experience is not essential. What matters is sound clinical judgement, a steady approach to medicine and surgery, and a genuine interest in developing others.

Your support structure

• Practice Manager: on-the-ground partner for rosters, inventory, client experience and keeping the day smooth.

• Area Manager: removes roadblocks, supports hiring, budgeting and operations, and helps put your ideas into action.

• Regional Clinical Director: senior clinician for case escalation, complex decision support, morbidity reviews and professional coaching.

• Wider network: fast peer access to other VDs, internal referral pathways, study groups and opportunities to visit neighbouring clinics.

Why it works here

• Time for patients. Standard consults are 20 minutes, longer for complex cases.

• Less admin. Heidi AI note-taking saves hours each week.

• Right tools. Digital X-ray, ultrasound, IM3 dental, in-house lab, portable HD endoscopy, rhinoscopy and bronchoscopy units.

• Real backup. You will not be left to figure things out alone, with practical help from Practice Manager, Area Manager, Regional Clinical Director and nearby Vet Directors.

What is in it for you

• Clear leadership scope, predictable support, funded CPD, AVA or VIN memberships, and genuine lifestyle balance on the northern Gold Coast. Easy access to internal mobility across the Greencross network 

Who you are

• Veterinarian with 5+ years of clinical experience

• Registered, or eligible for registration, in Australia

• Clear, calm communicator who enjoys coaching others

• Organised, patient-centred and committed to high standards

Benefits

• $15,000 set-up allowance

• CPD allowance, AVA and VIN memberships covered

• Wellbeing support, including trained Mental Health First Aiders and 24/7 confidential counselling
