Grampians Vet – Clinical Lead

Clinical Lead Mixed Veterinarian

We’ve just moved into our brand-new, purpose-built clinic in the heart of Hamilton – and now we’re ready to welcome a new leader to guide our passionate team into the next chapter.

This is a unique opportunity to step into a leadership role in a well-established, community-focused clinic that serves a diverse mix of companion animals and livestock. If you’re looking for a role where you can make a real impact – both in the clinic and in the local community – we’d love to hear from you.

Our Clinic

Grampians Animal Health brings together Cox Street Vets and Livestock Logic – a trusted mixed animal clinic and production animal consultancy. We’re proud of our deep roots in the community and our reputation for quality care across companion animals, livestock, and more.

Our team is a mix of experienced and early-career vets, supported by skilled veterinary nurses and trainees. We work collaboratively, share knowledge freely, and genuinely enjoy what we do.

We’ve recently moved into our brand-new, purpose-built clinic in Hamilton – a space designed with both our team and our clients in mind. This modern facility brings together our Cox Street Vets and Livestock Logic teams under one roof, creating a collaborative environment where mixed animal care thrives. The new clinic is equipped to support high-quality veterinary medicine across companion and mixed animals, with room to grow and adapt to the needs of our community.

Community Involvement

At Grampians Animal Health, we’re deeply connected to the communities we serve. Our work goes beyond the clinic walls — we support local farmers through on-farm trials, herd health consultancy, and educational outreach. Our parasitology lab, Worm Logic, provides diagnostic services that benefit producers, veterinarians, and researchers across the country.

We also offer preventative healthcare programs like “Best Mates,” making quality pet care more accessible to families in our region. Whether it’s caring for wildlife, supporting local events, or helping educate the next generation of animal carers, we’re proud to play an active role in the wellbeing of our community.

As Clinical Lead, you’ll have the opportunity to strengthen these connections and help us grow our community impact.

About Hamilton

Hamilton is a welcoming regional city in South-West Victoria, surrounded by natural beauty and rich cultural heritage. From the Grampians (Gariwerd) National Park to the Budj Bim Cultural Centre, there’s plenty to explore. The region offers excellent schools, healthcare, and lifestyle opportunities, with agriculture – especially sheep grazing – at the heart of the local economy.

About the Role

We’re looking for a hands-on leader to unite and inspire our team. You’ll play a key role in shaping the future of our clinic, now operating from a brand-new, purpose-built facility.

Support Beyond the Clinic

While Grampians Animal Health operates independently with a strong local focus, we’re backed by the broader Apiam network — a rural and regional veterinary group that supports us behind the scenes so we can focus on what matters most: our patients, our team, and our community.

Being part of Apiam means you’ll have access to:

  • A national network of experienced peers for collaboration and case support
  • Internal Secondment opportunities across the company
  • Structured graduate support and mentoring programs
  • Leadership development and in-house CPD tailored to your goals
  • Streamlined systems for payroll, HR, and admin — so you can focus on the work you love

It’s the best of both worlds: local care with national support.
