Full Time/Part Time Veterinary Nurse
Northside Veterinary Centre
Job Description
Northside Veterinary Centre is a non-corporate, locally owned and run clinic. We are a team of passionate, fun and supportive vets, nurses, kennel hands and receptionists. We advocate and aim for fear-free veterinary care and our clinic is an ISFM Silver Accredited Cat-Friendly Clinic. We have fabulous clients who are willing to work cases up and frequently take up the offer of specialist referral (but we still get to work up many interesting cases).
Our existing vets have memberships in small animal medicine, feline medicine and small animal dentistry, and have undertaken CVE distance education certificates in cardio-respiratory medicine, neurology, ophthalmology, behaviour and imaging.
We are looking for an honest, hardworking, qualified and experienced nurse to join our team. We encourage and support ongoing learning and offer a great work-life balance, by understanding that life also exists outside of work.
The primary role of this position is to provide a high level of care to both medical and surgical patients. The clinic has all the normal toys: two sterile surgeries, digital radiography, ultrasound, separate cat and dog consulting rooms and wards, heated and oxygen capable cages, tonometer, BAIR huggers, multi-parameter monitors, a full pathology suite, and a dedicated dental suite with built-in dental radiography.
The clinic currently opens 8am-6pm Monday-Friday and 8am-1pm Saturday. We are closed Sundays and all public holidays.
The ideal candidate will:
- Be comfortable with all aspects of clinical nursing
- Be able to work in a team and also be self-motivated
- Be able to work a rotating roster, including some Saturdays
- Have experience working in a small animal clinic
- Have high standards and attention to detail, with exceptional customer service and strong communication skills
- Most of all know how to have fun and have a laugh
We shall offer:
- An environment that will challenge your skills and knowledge
- Part time employment can be discussed for the right candidate.
- Parking in Braddon
- Above award wages
