Small Animal Veterinarian — Port Macquarie, NSWFull-time or part time | Above-award pay | Home by 5pm

If a change of scenery has been on your mind, this is one worth a proper look.

My client is an independent, locally owned small animal hospital on the NSW Mid North Coast, growing steadily and looking for a vet who wants to practise well without giving up their weekends. The hospital is purpose-built, with radiology, ultrasound, dentistry, surgery and full in-house diagnostics, so you have what you need to work the way you want to.

The team, and the balance

The team is small and close-knit, the sort where you are a name rather than a number. The pay sits comfortably above award, hours and shifts are flexible, and they genuinely close at 5pm. They put real effort into professional development too, because they would rather help you grow than watch you plateau.

Why Port Macquarie

This is the part worth paying attention to. Port Macquarie sits roughly halfway between Sydney and Brisbane,



with seventeen beaches, national parks and hinterland wineries within easy reach, and a cost of living that lets your salary stretch to a real home and a garden. It is one of the fastest-growing regions in the state, and far more people are moving in than leaving. Not a remote posting in the middle of nowhere, a relaxed coastal town that people leave the cities to reach.

Who they're after

They would suit an experienced vet who is confident working independently and keen to keep building their expertise over the coming years, and be properly rewarded for it. If you are a recent graduate with the right drive, they are still glad to talk. They can offer genuine support and a dynamic place to find your feet, provided you are comfortable on your own two feet clinically.
