A brand-new emergency and referral hospital is launching in Northern Melbourne in early 2026 - and this is your chance to join from the ground up!

Be part of an expanding veterinary hub delivering general practice, emergency and specialty care all under one roof. With a purpose-built hospital designed for fast, seamless ECC workflow, you’ll have the team, resources and space to truly make an impact when it matters most.

What’s on Offer:

  • A collaborative culture where everyone - vets, nurses, support teams - works together with mutual respect and clear communication

  • Skilled ECC nurses, experienced clinicians, strong protocols and excellent support

  • Rosters that protect wellbeing, with leaders who listen

  • Flexible arrangements: full-time, part-time or casual ECC shifts

  • Exposure to a wide range of emergency cases to boost your confidence and skillset

Development & Wellbeing:

  • 4 weeks annual leave + 1 week paid study leave (permanent roles)

  • Staff discounts, retail perks and gym deals

About You:

Whether you’re an experienced emergency clinician or a GP vet ready to step into ECC, you’ll be supported to grow every step of the way. You’ll bring:

  • A calm, team-focused approach - especially in sole-charge scenarios

  • Confidence in communication with clients, colleagues and referring vets

  • A veterinary degree eligible for registration in Victoria

Enjoy a relaxed, semi-rural lifestyle without giving up convenience - green space, community feel, and a straight run into Melbourne’s CBD. Ideal for anyone wanting balance and room to breathe while staying connected.
