  • The University of Adelaide is one of Australia's leading Group of Eight, research-intensive universities and is consistently ranked among the top 1% of universities in the world. Established in 1874, it is Australia's third oldest university with a strong reputation for preparing educated leaders and delivering research outcomes that contribute to local, national and global wellbeing.

    University of Adelaide employees enjoy a range of benefits and favourable work conditions that include opportunities for career development and advancement. 

    The Faculty of Sciences is one of five faculties at the University of Adelaide. As the first university in Australia to grant degrees in science (1882), science has long been at the cornerstone of the institution and this continues today. As a research and education leader in fields such as agriculture, food & wine, animal & veterinary sciences, biological sciences, and physical sciences, the Faculty offers an exciting and innovative work environment.

    The School of Animal and Veterinary Sciences is one of four schools in the Faculty of Sciences, located at the University's Roseworthy campus approximately 50 km north of Adelaide on a 1600 hectare property, less than eight kilometres from the township of Gawler. The campus includes a working farm, animal holding facilities, yards, sheds and a range of general purpose and specialist teaching and research spaces and laboratories. It is South Australia's only veterinary school and constitutes a team of leading animal and veterinary science academics. The school has a Veterinary Health Centre with four units that offer a range of first opinion, ambulatory and specialist veterinary care across all animal species to the general public and referring veterinarians and are used in its veterinary program.

    The School is seeking a Veterinarian, who is eligible to practice in South Australia to teach Sheep Medicine and Production, and develop a research program within this subject area. The successful candidate will contribute to the teaching of Sheep Medicine and Production through the delivery, supervision and coordination of lectures, practical classes, clinical services, including farm visits and clinical rotations. Some participation in related clinical services is anticipated to support and maintain an appropriate clientele profile. Additional participation in the teaching and course coordination of production animal studies courses throughout the animal and veterinary science programs may be required. The supervision of post-graduate students will be expected.

    Salary: $94,135 - $111,788 per annum.
