Melbourne, Victoria, Australia Lort Smith Full time $90,000 - $120,000 per year

Shape your role. Make a difference. Stay inspired.

As we expand our operating hours, we're opening up exciting new opportunities for experienced GP Veterinarians who are confident managing urgent general practice cases—with the option to care for higher-needs emergency and critical care patients, supported by a dedicated theatre team. Whether you're looking for full-time, part-time, or something in between, we offer a wide range of shift lengths and times to suit your lifestyle.

For example:

  • 8-day fortnights
  • Regular daytime shifts
  • Shorter evening shifts (up to 6 hours)
  • Weekend-only options

Even better? Evening and weekend shifts attract additional financial incentives—so a shorter shift could earn you the equivalent of a longer one.

Let's Talk

We know that flexibility means different things to different people. Get in touch as we'd love to hear what you're looking for. We're open to tailoring shifts that work for you.

What You'll Bring

You're a capable, compassionate vet who thrives in a fast-paced setting and is passionate about delivering exceptional care. You're also a team player who understands the importance of empathy—for both animals and their humans.

To succeed in this role, you'll need:

  • Registration to practice in Victoria
  • Ideally 4+ years' experience in a hospital or emergency/ECC setting
  • Strong clinical decision-making and problem-solving skills

Our North Melbourne hospital is a modern, fully equipped facility featuring:

  • CT, digital radiology, ultrasound, and endoscopy
  • In-house lab and advanced monitoring equipment
  • Separate dog and cat ICU wards

Our departmental ECC model means not every vet needs to do surgery—perfect for those who prefer a medicine-focused caseload.

  • Supportive, skilled colleaguesand a collaborative team culture
  • CPD allowanceand ongoing professional development
