About You

We are looking for a friendly, approachable and client-focused veterinarian looking for their forever clinic. We have a diverse client base, including many Chinese-speaking families, so the ability to consult fluently in Chinese (Mandarin & Cantonese) is required.

This position involves sole charge and is unfortunately not suitable for new or recent graduates needing supervision and mentorship.

Days and hours are completely negotiable. We are closed Sundays, public holidays, and the week between Christmas and New Year. We do not accept walk-ins, except the occasional emergency and hospital drop-off. We would ideally like someone for two short shifts weekly, but this is negotiable.

You will have your own computer and consult room to fit out how you like. Consults are 30 minutes long and most of our clients are very compliant and happy to work up and treat complicated cases.

This role is majority sole charge, however you will have two competent nurses on at a time to help if needed, and there will be periods of overlap with the other two vets. The other vets can be contacted or brought in if further support is required (e.g. complex surgeries, emergencies). Due to the current growth of the clinic, periods of sole charge are likely to decrease over time.

About the Role

• Ideal start early 2027
• Fully negotiable, flexible shifts and hours
• No public holidays, weekends, after hours or on-call
• Casual rate with equivalent rates available for permanent
• Special interests welcome, encouraged and financially supported
