🐾 Great to be at the Surrey Vet School Careers Fair 2026 yesterday, meeting the graduates about to start their veterinary careers.

Aaron and Emma from our UK team had some brilliant conversations about first roles and where a vet degree can take you (in the UK and further afield ✈️)

New year, new job? Then October is when it gets decided. 👻

Most qualified vet roles in the UK carry a three-month notice period. Clinical director and senior roles often carry longer. Work backwards from a January start and you're resigning in the first half of October.

Missed the window? You still have options.

Locum work starts in weeks rather than months, and BVA research found two-thirds of practices took more than three months to fill a vacancy.

Or spend a few months working overseas while you work out what you want from your next practice. 🌎

We asked our Australia team a few questions you might not know the answer to 🎥

First up, Dom on the biggest misconception people have about him.

On the phone, he comes across as a big personality. In a social setting? He'd describe himself as a reserved, introverted person who's happiest chatting one-on-one.

Turns out the voice on the other end of the line and the person in the room can be two very different things.

Thinking about a vet role in Australia? Get in touch with the team and have that one-on-one chat 🐾

🇸🇪 Sweden rarely comes up when vets talk about locum work abroad. The language question usually ends the conversation before it starts.

For a summer placement, it doesn't have to.

🇦🇺 For Australian vets, there's another angle too. We can build a Swedish summer placement alongside UK locum work, so you don't have to choose between the UK and mainland Europe.

🔗 Thinking about next summer? It's all in the full guide in our bio.

The UK. Australia. Across the Asia Pacific. And now the US, with our Dallas office.

We're proud to operate across 3 continents, placing incredible veterinary practitioners exactly where they want to be.

If you own a rural practice, you already know how this goes. 📖

You advertise, you raise the offer, you call the schools. And the role sits open anyway.

It's not you. There are 245 designated rural shortage situations across 47 states, and only 3.4% of US vets work in food animal practice.

The vets simply aren't there to hire 🐄

That's why more owners are looking overseas, at vets from Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, the UK and Mexico who already know large animal work. 🌍

The tricky part is licensure and visas, so we've broken it down properly.

🇦🇺 Three questions come up in almost every conversation we have with vets considering Australia...

Do I need an exam? 🤔
If your degree is RCVS, AVMA, VCI or SAVC accredited, the AVBC already recognises it. No exam.
If not, the AVE pathway applies, so plan early. Every multiple-choice place for the 2026 cycle went before the window closed.

Which visa? 🤔
Usually a Working Holiday 417 or 462, or an employer-sponsored 482 with a route to permanent residency.

Can my family come? 🤔
Yes. A 482 covers your partner and children, and your partner can work.

❓ "What is relief work, and how does it work?"

It's one of the questions our US team get asked most.

The short answer: a relief vet provides cover at a practice. A fill-in shift. A substitute vet stepping in when a team needs support, whether that's maternity or paternity leave, a busy season, or a gap in the rota.

A real incentive for vets is the control it hands back. 🤲

You choose when you work, where you work, and what your week looks like. Real flexibility over your day-to-day.

The numbers are one thing. What they look like on the ground is another. 🐎

In H1 2026, that meant 3,500 locum shifts across the UK.

Specialist appointments throughout ANZ. A US relief offering launched from Dallas. And a cat sanctuary in Athens that needed a hand 🐾

Region by region, here's where the first half of the year took us.
