CAREERS
Our mission at Veterinary Specialist Aotearoa (VSA) is to provide the most advanced, specialist veterinary care in New Zealand. With that motivation, hard work and passion we have established ourselves as New Zealand’s leading specialist veterinary organisation. VSA was started over 20 years ago with the first privately owned veterinary referral hospital in New Zealand. From that first hospital in Mt Albert, Auckland, we now have 3 world class specialist referral hospitals across the country working to support the wider veterinary community and their patients.
Every patient we see is regarded as an important member of their family so we are proud to be able to provide the highest level of care when they need us the most.
You’ll find details on our current vacancies below but we are always keen to hear from passionate veterinary professionals. If you are looking for a career move and are a veterinarian, veterinary specialist in any field, or veterinary nurse, please feel free to get in touch with us.
