Position type: Large Animal VeterinarianAre you an experienced veterinarian with an adventurous side who is starting to get itchy feet? Maybe you have a young family and want to relocate to a rural community with great schools. Do you love hiking, skiing, and farmers markets? Southland has it all and more! VetSouth is part of an industry-leading animal health provider, with modern clinics based throughout Southland and South Otago, Canterbury, the West Coast, and Morrinsville.
One of our largest veterinary clinics, VetSouth Winton, is looking to increase our workforce specifically in the large animal space; however, we are open to mixed positions. VetSouth Winton has a great team of vets with a wide range of experience and specialized skills. We are proud to serve our communities, enjoy a great work-life balance, and maintain a crucial family feel.
We provide an extensive range of veterinary services to dairy clients, other production animals, working dogs, and companion animals. Developing a culture of 'team first,' where everyone pulls together when there's work and relaxes when it's time, is key here. We are a strong team focused on well-being who want the best for patients, employees, and the practice.
Due to growth, we require a 5 year+ experienced veterinarian, but we will consider less experience if it's the right person with the right values. You'll develop as a veterinarian and gain experience by working on your own cases and having key clients, with plenty of mentoring from highly experienced veterinarians. Over time, you can also develop in management and learn about the behind-the-scenes parts of a veterinary business if that's what interests you.
Salary, perks, and hours: $115k+ per annum, depending on experience. CPD is actively encouraged, and 25% can be used for well-being (some have bought ski passes, others join the gym or take a photography course). You will be working 42.5 hours per week with a sensible OOH rota in place. A relocation allowance is provided, veterinary fees paid, and staff discounts applied for companion animals. A work vehicle, laptop, and phone are provided, plus 6 weeks of free accommodation on arrival (if relocating). Plus, there's plenty of 'food for good' on the go, including fruit, nibbles, and snacks to keep you going.
Choosing a new practice is a big decision. You're a great veterinarian who cares about the patients and the people bringing them in. Most importantly, you want a place to help, learn, and grow.
So, what's next?
We can't get the whole story in a job advert, so send your CV to ****** along with any questions (about any location). I'll answer honestly, no hard sell. I can also put you in touch with previous and current employees. We reference check you, so it is only fair that you get to reference check us!
