Veterinary network operator integrating 270+ clinics across Australia and New Zealand
VetPartners operates a federation of over 270 veterinary clinics and specialty hospitals across Australia and New Zealand, with 1,001–5,000 employees predominantly in clinical roles. The hiring velocity is accelerating (142 roles posted in the last 30 days) with 224 open positions in healthcare, signaling aggressive clinic expansion or network consolidation. Active projects around post-acquisition payroll integration, inter-clinic surgical referral services, and nursing programs reveal a network operator focused on standardizing operations and deepening clinical specialization across dispersed sites.
VetPartners is Australia and New Zealand's largest veterinary practice network, uniting more than 270 independent clinics and specialty hospitals under a shared operating model. The organization provides clinical teams with training, equipment investment, and shared services to support patient care across companion animal, equine, and specialty disciplines. Operating from Macquarie Park, New South Wales, the company is structured around healthcare delivery (the bulk of hiring), with smaller finance, operations, HR, and support functions. Current priorities include integrating recently acquired clinics, expanding specialized surgical and neurology services, and addressing persistent staffing gaps in overnight and weekend coverage.
Active projects include post-acquisition payroll integration, an ANZ vet nurse program (Aspire), inter-clinic surgical referral services, neurology expansion, and clinical research initiatives in mast cell tumours and degenerative lumbosacral stenosis.
VetPartners uses Microsoft Office, Excel, Google Sheets, Jira, Power BI, Tableau, Dynamics NAV, SQL, AWS X-Ray, Canva, Camtasia, and iPad. No major platform migrations or new adoptions are currently underway.
