Full-Time Veterinarian

Newcastle / Lake Macquarie NSW

Step into a well-established, highly regarded veterinary hospital in the Greater Newcastle region and take your career to the next level. This is an exciting opportunity to join a long-standing community-focused practice that blends the values of traditional care with the standards of modern veterinary medicine.

With a strong involvement in animal rescue and a growing orthopaedics caseload, this role offers excellent variety and the chance to develop advanced clinical skills in a supportive, well-equipped environment. You will be backed by an experienced orthopaedic surgeon who is passionate about mentoring and supporting the development of colleagues.

Why This Role Stands Out

This is an ideal opportunity for a veterinarian looking to expand their clinical capabilities while enjoying a genuinely supportive team culture. You will have access to advanced diagnostic and surgical equipment, exposure to orthopaedic cases including TPLO, and the chance to be involved in meaningful community and rescue work.

This role suits a veterinarian who enjoys working in a well-resourced hospital environment, values collaboration, and is keen to continue building clinical confidence and capability.

The Opportunity

  • Full-time position within a long-established, community-focused veterinary hospital

  • Growing orthopaedics caseload with access to advanced surgical procedures

  • Mentorship and clinical support from an experienced orthopaedic surgeon

  • Well-equipped hospital with advanced diagnostic and surgical facilities

  • Supportive, collaborative team culture

  • Exposure to rescue and community-based veterinary work

About You

You will bring:

  • A Bachelor of Veterinary Science (BVSc) or equivalent qualification recognised in Australia

  • Ideally 3+ years of clinical experience (flexible for the right candidate)

  • A team-focused, client-centred approach

  • Strong communication and organisational skills

  • A positive, motivated attitude with a desire to continue developing your career

The Benefits

  • Attractive salary package commensurate with experience

  • Flexible roster with a genuine focus on work-life balance

  • Supportive and understanding team environment

  • Visa sponsorship available for eligible overseas candidates

  • Ongoing career development through continued education programs, skill sharing and regular performance feedback

  • Paid continuing education leave with financial support for external courses and skills development

If you are looking for a role where you can develop advanced clinical skills while being supported by a collaborative and experienced team, this opportunity offers both professional growth and lifestyle appeal in the Newcastle and Lake Macquarie region.
