Large Animal Veterinarian 

Located: Te Kuiti

About the role:

The veterinary industry is changing continually, our equipment is state of the art and many of our services and products are innovative and ground breaking. We proudly provide these nationwide in modern vet clinics alongside rural and urban communities.

To help us to continue to do this and maintain our market leading position, we are looking for a Large Animal Veterinarian to roll up their sleeves and join our Te Kuiti clinic. The clinic has a great team of progressive nurses and veterinarians.  The clients are predominantly sheep and beef/dairy grazing farmers with deer also being part of the caseload.

Originally a railway town, Te Kuiti promotes itself as the "Shearing Capital of the World". Home to both Colin Meads and the shearing legend David Fagan, Te Kuiti is truly heartland New Zealand. For the outdoor inclined, there are plenty of hunting opportunities, and both fresh and saltwater fishing are not too far away. Rock climbing, caving and mountain biking are all easy to access, and it isn’t far for skiing on Ruapehu in the winter.

To succeed in this role you will have:

• 3+ years veterinary experience
• Experience in sheep and beef work is essential
• You should be organised, self-motivated, enjoy learning on the job and have a positive 'can do' attitude
• Excellent communication skills, both verbal and written
• A strong customer service ethic
