Advanced Vetcare is a specialist referral hospital providing 24-hour Emergency and Critical Care with three well-equipped hospitals in Victoria.  Our centres are well-equipped with Specialist Surgery, Anaesthesia, Medicine, Oncology and 24hr Emergency Care services. Our practices are located in Kensington, Kew, and Geelong — with this role primarily based in Kensington and Kew. Opportunities to work from Geelong are also available for interested candidates.

Each centre benefits from 64-slice CT, comprehensive in-house clinical pathology, a wide range of endoscopes, new digital fluoroscopy, digital radiography and high-level ultrasound machines and easy-to-use cloud-based pacs software.   

We manage a high and diverse caseload of complex and rewarding cases, including the ability to perform minimally invasive cardiac procedures and interventional radiology procedures. Our core mission is to provide referral medicine services in close partnership with our valued referring vets. 

We are a growing, independently owned referral centre committed to delivering outstanding, collaborative veterinary care in a practical, and empathetic manner, whilst maintaining strong communication with both pet owners and referring veterinarians and a healthy work-life balance. We also offer access to an Employee Assistance Program to support mental health and well-being.

The medicine department works closely with our specialist surgical and oncology services and is supported by a 24-hour Emergency and Critical Care service.  The successful applicant will join a dynamic and highly collaborative team that currently includes two registered Internal Medicine Specialists, a resident, and three interns. Specialist qualifications are preferred; however, applications from registrars who have completed their training are welcome.

Benefits of working at AVC: 

• Competitive salary.
• 4 weeks annual leave and 1 week conference/study leave. 
• State-of-the-art facilities and equipment.
• A workplace that values work-life balance and a positive team culture.
• A business 100% owned and operated by veterinarians working in clinical roles in the practice.
• Access to our Employment Assistance Program (EAP) through the Cairnmillar Institute.
• Being part of a large and collaborative team that enjoy working on cases together.
• Working in one of the most liveable cities in the world - with excellent parks, facilities, and multicultural experiences widely available.
• 4 day working week.  

Our hospitals are located in three diverse areas around Melbourne. Geelong is a beautiful coastal city on the doorstep of the world-famous Bells Beach and Great Ocean Road.  Kew is within the leafy, established inner eastern suburbs with excellent local schools and easy access to the city and surrounding lifestyle suburbs. Kensington is centrally located in the inner west, with easy access to excellent public transport and the vibrancy of being located so close to the centre of Melbourne. 

Remuneration will be generous and negotiable based on experience. Our practice will assist with relocation costs and provide sponsorship for skilled migration if required. 

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a progressive and collegial referral hospital, where you can practice high-level medicine, contribute to meaningful patient outcomes, and grow professionally within a supportive environment.  If you are motivated, compassionate, and excited to be part of our team we would love to hear from you.
