Companion Veterinarian- Echuca and Moama Veterinary Clinic

Companion Veterinarian Position

 

Echuca and Moama Veterinary Clinic is seeking a companion animal veterinarian to join our well established and supportive team in the beautiful Murray River region. Our clinic is growing and we are excited to welcome a third vet to our close-knit team.

Our clinic is a busy, community focused practice providing high quality companion animal care to a loyal and long-standing client base. We pride ourselves on being approachable, collaborative, and genuinely supportive of each other, with a strong emphasis on providing great medicine while maintaining balance outside of work.

We are ideally looking for an experienced veterinarian; however, we are also open to considering a new or recent graduate who is keen to learn, develop their skills, and be supported by an experienced team.

You will be joining a close-knit team of two experienced veterinarians, supported by a well-trained and capable nursing and reception team.

Our nurses are a big part of how we work. We run a nurse assisted consulting model, with an allocated buddy nurse each day for every vet, allowing you to focus on patient care rather than juggling everything alone. This supports better medicine, smoother workflow and a more sustainable pace.

  • Interesting and varied companion animal caseload
  • Full-time position worked as a 9-day fortnight. Part time positions also considered.
  • At least one weekday On Call shift and one On Call weekend shift per month- On call is well supported with the Vetriage Service, which filters calls and takes deposits and after hours is very well remunerated.
  • Interest in dental procedures would be a fantastic addition for our team.
  • A supportive and welcoming workplace culture
  • Encouragement of new ideas, suggestions, and continuous improvement
  • Strong focus on work life balance
  • Supportive and experienced nursing team
  • Nurse assisted consulting with daily buddy nurse allocation
  • Lunch breaks are respected so you can recharge and return ready for the afternoon with a team that genuinely values your wellbeing.

Echuca and Moama offer the best of regional living, with the Murray River at your doorstep, excellent cafes and restaurants, sporting and outdoor activities, and a strong sense of community. The region provides an affordable lifestyle without sacrificing access to quality amenities, making it an ideal place to settle in or slow things down while still enjoying a varied and interesting caseload.

This role would suit a veterinarian who values teamwork, enjoys building strong client relationships, and wants to work in a clinic where support, wellbeing, and professional respect are genuinely prioritised.

We offer a competitive package that reflects our commitment to work-life balance, including a generous base salary, dependent on experience and:

  • $10K Sign on Bonus!
  • VSB Registration & memberships supported
  • VetEducation membership
  • 1 week study leave (pro-rata for part-time)
  • Generous CPD allowances to support your development
