Mixed Vet Surgeon.
Enjoy rewarding medicine, real variety, and a life outside work.
Up to $150k DOE

Townsville Vet Clinic is a well-established, purpose-built mixed practice in North Queensland, running at roughly 45% small animal and 45% equine, with the remainder across small ruminants and reproduction work. They also provide a respected equine referral and second-opinion service, including complex medical and surgical cases, supported by a specialist equine surgeon on site.

You’ll be joining a 7-vet team backed by 9–10 experienced support staff — a genuinely collaborative group that enjoy high standards, good banter, and helping each other thrive. They aim to practice veterinary medicine at a level others in the region simply can’t, including the ability to hospitalise up to 16 horses, with a dedicated isolation unit for contagious cases.

The role is full-time across a 4-day working week, with a shared 1:4 on-call weekend rota and typically 1–2 nights per week. After an on-call weekend, you’ll enjoy a rostered 4-day weekend, because rest matters. Annual leave is 4 weeks, with overtime accrued as time off in lieu, often adding another couple of weeks across the year.

Your caseload will be genuinely mixed and deeply rewarding:
Small animal medicine and surgery
Equine hospital and ambulatory work
Small ruminants
Advanced equine referral cases
Significant equine and canine reproduction work

Salary up to $150,000 + Super, depending on experience
$2,000 CPD allowance plus all usual fees paid
Company vehicle for ambulatory and after-hours work
Modern facilities: digital radiography, advanced ultrasound, arthroscopy, endoscopy, orthopaedics, ASIF instrumentation, in-house lab, and more
Minimum 4–5 years’ experience preferred
Start ASAP (or flexible for the right person)

Townsville is North Queensland at its best. Think sun-soaked beaches, reef and rainforest on your doorstep, and the outback just a short drive away.

Imaging Clinician, Melbourne. Australia $180k-$350k.
Relocation Assistance

At Advanced Vetcare, they don’t just treat patients; they are building something special every day. As one of Melbourne’s leading independent hospitals, they’re creating a world-class imaging service from the ground up, and they’re looking for a radiologist who wants to play a defining role in that journey.

They are proudly independent, owned by five full-time veterinary partners who all work clinically within the business.

About the Role
They are seeking a Specialist or Residency-Trained Diagnostic Imaging Clinician to join their expanding team across their three modern hospitals, Kensington, Kew, and Geelong.
Their hospitals are equipped with 64-slice Siemens CT scanners at all sites, high-end ultrasound units (Siemens x700, x300, Juniper, Mindray M8, and more), fluoroscopy, and cloud-based PACS.

They will consider both early-career and experienced candidates, offering a competitive salary of $180–$350K FTE, DOE. The package includes relocation assistance, visa sponsorship, 4 weeks’ annual leave, 1 week’s study leave, $1500 CPD support, and external wellbeing resources.

Why You’ll Love Working Here
Independent, specialist-led and collaborative team.
Part-time or full-time, time you choose.
Freedom to help shape a new hospital and imaging department.
State-of-the-art equipment and exciting future technology plans (including MRI).

If you've been waiting for a role where your skills and ambitions truly align, this is it. Where patient welfare comes first, your career grows on your terms, and your future is in your hands.

Locum Vet Surgeon.
NSW. Buronga. Australia.
$120 p/h. Plus a car and a houseboat as your home.

Ready for a locum role that feels more like a life chapter than a job?

From 1st May to 31st July 2026 (and likely the same each year), join a long-standing small animal clinic on two riverfront acres in Buronga NSW. Where your commute is a stroll along the Murray River, and your bed rocks gently on a houseboat in the marina.

You’ll earn $120 per hour and enjoy shorter days than most clinics: Tuesdays 8:30–4:30, Wednesdays 8:30–6:00, Thursdays 8:30–4:30, and Saturdays 8:30–12:30.

After-hours is light, usually nothing between 7pm and 7am, with the odd emergency or quick phone call for a trusted client. It’s sole charge, but never lonely: their Practice Manager (Cert IV, 25 years in the clinic) anchors the team alongside a nurse-receptionist, a groomer, and kennel staff.

The work is the kind that keeps skills sharp and days satisfying. Dogs and cats are their mainstay, with the occasional horse or unexpected visitor from the surrounding countryside. All patients are seen onsite, no home visits, in a clinic built to do things well.

You’ll handle routine desexing, dentistry, lump removals, wound management and, for rescue patients, the occasional femoral head removal or amputation. We keep patient numbers to about 30 a day, so care is never rushed.

Alongside conventional care, they offer veterinary chiropractic, Chinese medicine, acupuncture, behaviour programs, treadmill rehab, and a heated hydrotherapy pool. If you’ve got interest or skills in these areas, you’ll feel right at home.

The setting is a pleasure to work in: paddocks and an undercover dressage arena, shaded yards for up to 30 dogs, and an air-conditioned equine barn that doubles as an all-weather workspace.

HR Manager Needed: Must Love People, Problem-Solving & The Odd Paw Print.

Hafren Veterinary Group isn’t your average vet practice, and they quite like it that way. As one of only two RCVS-accredited practices in Powys, employing over 65 people, they’ve spent 135 years looking after animals and their humans across Newtown, Llanidloes, Crossgates, and Knighton.

Proudly independent, which means no micromanaging, daft corporate targets, and no head office telling everybody what to do from afar.

They are now looking for an HR Manager who can help keep that healthy, happy culture alive. Someone who’s got the professional credibility (yes, we need a recognised qualification), but also the warmth, humour and common sense to help people feel heard, supported and treated fairly. You’ll be supported by an external employment law solicitor, providing expert guidance when needed.

What You’ll Be Doing
This is a 2-day-a-week role, with a mix of working from home and being in the office at least one day a week, so you can actually see the people you’re supporting. Your day-to-day will involve:
Appraisals that don’t feel like an interrogation.
Recruitment that finds the right humans, not just the right CVs.
Disciplinaries handled with fairness and empathy.
Back-to-work interviews that balance policy with kindness.
Onboarding, ensuring every new starter enjoys a smooth, welcoming start.
From paperwork and equipment through to role-specific training.
Helping managers grow their confidence and capability.
Supporting organisational change.
Embedding a culture of openness, kindness, and honesty.

So, what’s next?
If you’re looking for an HR role where you’re valued, supported, and occasionally greeted by a wagging tail, we would love to hear from you.

Please send your CV to recruitment@vetfinders.co.uk. It doesn’t matter if it’s not up to date, we will come back to you.

Will take a New Grad or more experienced mixed vet

We are working with a warm, down-to-earth mixed animal practice in Parkes, Central West NSW, and they are recruiting. Full-time or part-time, you choose. They’re far more interested in the right person than the hours you choose to work.

They care for companion animals and local farm clients, and their caseload reflects a healthy balance of small animal medicine/surgery and general large animal ambulatory work. If you’re already comfortable across both, great. If you’re newer to mixed practice, you’ll have guidance and support, no one is thrown in the deep end here.

Their clients are loyal and reasonable, and the work is varied without being overwhelming. The after-hours component is genuinely light and shared fairly, with a vehicle provided for call-outs. This is a role where you can develop your skills, contribute meaningfully, and feel settled.

New graduates are very welcome to apply, they will mentor, encourage, and help you grow in confidence at a pace that suits you.

The role is Monday to Friday, and they currently do not open Saturday mornings, giving you your weekends to enjoy and explore.
What's on offer
Brand new purpose-built hospital (opened April 2025)
Supportive, welcoming team environment
Digital X-ray, ultrasound, Zoetis in-house lab
Vehicle supplied for call-outs

Veterinarian. Live and work on the Yorkshire Coast in Whitby,
Salary £40k - £65k DOE.

We’re working with a long-established, family-owned independent practice in the iconic seaside town of Whitby. This 5 vet practice has been trusted by the local community for over 70 years, since opening its doors in 1946. They are now looking to recruit an additional vet to join their team. The caseload is predominantly small animal 85% with 15% equine work, so you will need to have experience in both.

They also work closely with the British Divers Marine Life Rescue and a local wildlife sanctuary, giving you the chance to be part of some truly meaningful and memorable cases.
What the working week looks like:
4-day week with a fixed day off.
Early finish every Friday.
1:5 weekend rota.
1 night per week on call (always with a nurse).
Dedicated daily admin time and a scheduled lunch break.
A diary structure praised by the Practice Standards Inspector for supporting wellbeing, breaks, and catch-up time.
The culture here is warm, close-knit, and genuinely welcoming. The team enjoys spending time together, whether that’s over a shared meal, relaxing at their beach hut in summer, or trying out local activities.

If you want to try paddleboarding, kayaking, wild swimming, seaside saunas, or simply watching a spectacular Whitby sunset with your favourite drink in hand, you’ll fit right in.

Whitby itself is a gem, historic, charming, full of character, and surrounded by some of the best scenery in the UK. With the North York Moors National Park on your doorstep, miles of coastal walks, and famous landmarks like Whitby Abbey and the 199 steps (which was the inspiration for Bram Stoker's ”Dracula” ), life outside work can be as adventurous or as peaceful as you want it to be.
