Qualified Veterinary Nurse - Maternity leave coverage

Description

A bit about us

At Essendon Veterinary Clinic, we aim to provide a comprehensive, professional and compassionate veterinary service including surgical and medical. We recognise the significance of pets and the place they hold in our clients families, we aim to provide caring, high quality veterinary care and advice for the four-legged members of your family.

What it will be like for you

The key to most great clinics are the staff, and Vet Nurses who are able to act like an animal whisperer are what every pet owner wants. The ability to calm a furry friend that is in distress and keep them calm is one of those skills that reassures not just the patient, but the pet-parents and the Vets alike.

That’s really what we are looking for in this role, and we admit it’s a high bar – but that is what makes our clinic a great place to work. We are pets first, with their family a very close second.

Our Practice Manager / Head Nurse is passionate about a positive learning environment to make sure our nurses are highly skilled, and provides a tonne of support and opportunities to upskill so you have to be ready for that.

Its this attitude we can’t teach, but we are happy to teach other aspects of the role – we do have some requirements for the role though;

• This is a fixed term contract, covering 33 hours a week
• Have their Cert IV in Vet Nursing with some experience
• Be able to keep the clinic neat and tidy
• Help our Vets and from time to time help out with some admin tasks
