Company Description

Veterinary Referral Hospital (VRH) in Melbourne, Australia is seeking a registered specialist or board eligible veterinarian in veterinary radiology to become part of a collaborative, progressive and friendly team in a well‑equipped hospital.

Melbourne is a bayside city of 5 million people renowned for culture, great cafés and restaurants. It offers the best of all worlds with four distinct seasons and always something happening. The city is encircled by incredible wine regions, great beaches and beautiful forests for hiking. The alpine region with some of Australia’s best ski fields is only 3 hours’ drive away.

VRH is a busy, multi‑specialist veterinary hospital located in the south‑eastern suburbs of Melbourne. Our clinic is a true multidisciplinary centre with specialists in radiology, critical care, anaesthesia, neurology, surgery and internal medicine. We have a strong neurology focus performing 4–5 MRIs a day and are renowned for working up the weird and wacky cases that will have you scouring the literature for answers. Our team values collaboration and fosters an inquisitive culture to yield the best results for our patients and give you the greatest satisfaction in your role. There is capacity for teaching and mentoring as the hospital employs both rotating and fixed specialty interns and we currently have a first‑year radiology resident.

Our radiology department currently consists of two specialist radiologists, a radiology resident and three radiographers. The department is equipped with a 1.5 T GE MRI, a 16‑slice GE CT, an Accuson Sequoia ultrasound, three additional portable ultrasounds and a brand new Zenition 70 Phillips C‑arm fluoroscopic system for swallow studies and interventional procedures. The reading room is tucked away in a quiet corner with adaptable standing‑sitting desks and multiple screens designed for your viewing pleasure.

The Position





This position is for a specialist (or residency‑trained registrar) in radiology with a degree and qualifications registerable in Australia, who enjoys and values working collaboratively in a progressive and friendly team environment.

We value a healthy work‑life balance and know that to bring your best to work you need to be rested and have time to do the things you love outside of work. As a result, our working hours can be flexible. Both full‑time and part‑time applicants are encouraged to apply. Full‑time schedules can be individually varied consisting of three 12‑hour shifts, four 10‑hour shifts or any combination you please. The position can also be flexible with the possibility of remote working days, though the job is primarily clinic‑based.
