About the role
McIntyre Vets is seeking a mixed practice veterinarian to join our established, family-focused team in Kyneton, Central Victoria.

We welcome applications from both new graduates and experienced veterinarians looking for a supportive workplace where they can build confidence, pursue professional interests and enjoy a rewarding career in mixed practice.

Our team comprises 11 veterinarians and 13 support staff, bringing together a broad range of experience and interests. We value collaboration, encourage ongoing learning and work together to deliver high standards of veterinary care that reflect each client’s needs and circumstances.

We are a long-established practice with deep roots in the local community. Since August 2024, we have been working from our new, purpose-built clinic and hospital, designed to support the delivery of modern veterinary services.

What you’ll find at McIntyre Vets
A team that has your back

We are proud of our stable workforce, very low veterinarian turnover and high-quality support team. You’ll be joining colleagues who value sharing knowledge, supporting one another and helping each other develop.

• Enjoys being part of a collaborative team.
• Takes a client-first approach and values practical, compassionate veterinary care.
• Loves the variety of mixed practice and is enthusiastic about continued learning.
• Is keen to contribute to a supportive workplace and develop their skills, whatever their career stage.
