Looking for a fresh start in Australia?
Whether you're seeking a slower pace, stunning scenery, or the chance to make a real impact in a close-knit community - this opportunity offers all that and more.

We’re working with a friendly, well-established veterinary clinic in Queensland’s beautiful Scenic Rim, and they’re on the lookout for a passionate Companion Animal Veterinarian to join their team part-time (2–4 days per week).

This is the perfect role for a vet looking to relocate to Australia and experience rural life with the benefit of strong professional support and career development. It’s a chance to live and work in a scenic part of the country while still being close to major hubs like Brisbane and the Gold Coast.

The Location:
Based in a picturesque country town surrounded by national parks and rolling green hills, this practice is just 90 minutes from Brisbane and the Gold Coast, and 30 minutes from Ipswich. You’ll enjoy all the charm of regional living, with easy access to city life when you need it.

The Role:

  • Part-time hours (2–4 days/week)

  • No on-call

  • Small animal only (clinic is mixed, but this role is companion-focused)

  • Well-equipped clinic with in-house diagnostics

  • Supportive team environment with access to a broader network for collaboration and career development

What’s On Offer:

  • Competitive salary package: $90K – $140K FTE + Super (commensurate with experience; pro-rata for part-time)

  • CPD support: study leave + generous allowance

  • VSB registration covered

  • Additional paid leave

  • Paid parental leave (top-up)

  • Access to EAP, trained Mental Health First Aid officers, and wellbeing programs

  • Discounts on retail, travel, services, and clinic products

  • Career progression opportunities within a large, supportive veterinary network

About You:

  • Must be eligible for registration in Australia

  • Confident in companion animal care

  • Motivated and independent, while also enjoying team collaboration

  • Keen to become part of a community and build strong client relationships

If you're considering a move to Australia and want to make a genuine impact in a welcoming regional town - with support, flexibility, and work-life balance - this could be the perfect role for you.
