Senior Veterinarian | Maternity Leave Cover | Vetwest Bibra Lake
There is a lot happening at Vetwest Bibra Lake and we are excited about what lies ahead.
Following a recent clinic renovation we are rebuilding momentum, growing our loyal client base and creating the kind of workplace where people genuinely enjoy coming to work each day. We are looking for an experienced Veterinarian to join us on a 12–18 month maternity leave cover.
We are looking for someone who enjoys building relationships, taking ownership of their cases and being surrounded by teammates who always have each other's backs.
This is a great opportunity to step into a well-supported role, become part of a close-knit team and make your mark during an exciting period of growth at the clinic.
This role isn't about walking into a busy conveyor belt of appointments. It's about becoming part of a close-knit team, getting to know your clients and patients and helping shape the next chapter of our clinic that is ready to grow.
You will be joining a supportive Practice Manager, three wonderful veterinarians and four fantastic nurses who believe great veterinary care starts with great teamwork. We celebrate the wins together, support each other through the busy days and genuinely enjoy what we do.
If you are the kind of vet who loves the variety of general practice, enjoys surgery as much as consulting and values continuity of care then we are the team for you.
