Job Description

Lead clinically. Inspire your team. Help shape the future of Emergency & Critical Care in Perth.

Are you an experienced Emergency Veterinarian looking to take the next step in your leadership journey while maintaining a strong connection to clinical practice?

Animal Emergency Centre (AEC) Midland is seeking a passionate and motivated Veterinary Director to join our team on a part-time basis.

As part of Australia’s largest network of Specialist and Emergency veterinary hospitals, this is an exciting opportunity to step into a key clinical leadership position within an established and supportive emergency team.

As Veterinary Director, you will play an important role in shaping the clinical direction of the hospital, supporting and developing our veterinary team, and working closely with the hospital and broader leadership team to continue building a thriving emergency service.

About the role

This is a diverse clinical and leadership position, providing the opportunity to continue practising clinically while taking on greater responsibility for team development, clinical standards and hospital performance.

You will:

• Provide clinical leadership and support to the veterinary team.
• Foster a positive, collaborative and supportive team culture where veterinarians feel encouraged to learn and develop.
• Mentor and coach vets, helping to build clinical confidence, capability and career progression.
• Support high standards of patient care, clinical governance and client communication.
• Work closely with the Business Manager and hospital leadership team on operational and management initiatives.
• Assist with clinical reporting, case and history reviews and other quality improvement activities.
• Contribute to the ongoing development and success of the AEC Midland service.
• Help strengthen relationships with referring veterinarians and the broader veterinary community.
• Act as a trusted clinical leader and advocate for the team, patients and clients.

Why AEC Midland?

You’ll be joining a hospital with access to the equipment and resources needed to deliver high-quality emergency care, including endoscopy, digital radiography, ultrasound and more.

AEC Midland is also a co-located hospital, situated alongside a Greencross general practice and Petbarn retail store. This provides access to a broader network of veterinary and pet-care professionals, creating opportunities for collaboration and continuity of care for patients and their families.

More importantly, you’ll become part of a wider national network of Emergency and Specialist veterinary professionals, providing opportunities to share knowledge, collaborate and continue developing your own leadership and clinical skills.
