Are you a confident and compassionate veterinary nurse who also shines on the front desk?

Do you thrive in a fast-paced environment where no two days are the same? Monash Veterinary Clinic is looking for a qualified, experienced nurse with excellent reception and communication skills to join our friendly and supportive team.

About Us

Established in 1977, Monash Veterinary Clinic has a long-standing reputation for providing exceptional, compassionate care. Our clinic is purpose-built and fully equipped to manage a high-volume, varied caseload — from reproductive medicine and orthopaedic surgeries to sporting dog injuries, large and giant breed care, and everything in between.

We work hard, have fun, and pride ourselves on doing as much as possible in-house. Referrals are the exception, not the rule.

About the Role

This is a full-time hybrid position, combining hands-on nursing with front-of-house reception duties. You'll be rotating between surgical, hospital, and reception areas, so versatility and a proactive attitude are key. You’ll need to be calm under pressure, highly organised, and capable of juggling patient care with client service — all while keeping things running smoothly.

Who We’re Looking For:

• Certificate IV in Veterinary Nursing (or equivalent)
• At least 2 years of nursing experience, including reception/admin exposure
• Confident handling of dogs (including large, anxious, or reactive patients) and cats
• Outstanding verbal and written communication skills
• Ability to multitask across phone, email, and in-clinic communication
• A friendly, professional manner with both clients and teammates
• Familiarity with EzyVet and VetRadar (bonus!)
• A love for teamwork, adaptability, and the occasional burst of clinic chaos

What We Offer:

• Above award pay rates
• A diverse, stimulating caseload
• Discounts on vet services and retail
• No Sundays or public holidays
• On-site parking
• “On Wednesday’s we wear Pink” & “Fun Scrub Friday” – bring out the bold prints
• Staff room stocked with lunch options, fruit, and barista-worthy coffee

Why Choose Monash?

We’re not your average clinic. From whelping support to weekend support, we care for a wide range of pets and their people — and we treat each team member like family. If you love mixing client care with clinical nursing, and want to grow in both areas, this is your chance.
