Job Description
Full job description
Who are we
We are a 3 site vet clinic based in Fairfield, dedicated to providing exceptional care for pets and peace of mind for their owners. We believe helping our clients starts with clear, honest communication about health care issues and treatment options.
At Alphington and Fairfield Vet, we aim to provide on-the-spot assistance for nearly all pet health and medical needs, ensuring your furry friends are in safe, capable hands.
About the Job:
You'll enjoy a rotation between surgical nursing and reception shifts, so variety is part of every day! Whether it’s building bonds with our clients in reception, performing nurse consultations, or focusing on our hospital and surgery patients, no two days are the same. We plan our days ahead, so you’ll always know exactly what to expect.
As part of a three-clinic, multi-site network, you’ll have the opportunity to work across all locations, gaining experience with different teams, patients, and workflows. This variety not only keeps things interesting but also broadens your clinical skills and professional growth.
Our clinics are places where growth is encouraged, with access to practical training programs all year round. We love initiative and will support you in becoming the best nurse you can be!
About You:
You're flexible, reliable and can work full time.
You're passionate about patient care and always advocate for best practice. Yet you're open minded and eager to learn new ways to work!
You're proactive! You're able to keep the clinic running smoothly, managing the reception area, assisting the vets in between consults or preparing for the next surgery.
You have your Cert IV in Vet Nursing or equivalent, and preferably have 2 years of clinical experience.
Small clinic feel. Big network behind you.
Hawthorn East Vet is proudly part of VetPartners — Australia and New Zealand's largest vet care network of 270+ clinics and a community of over 1,000 vets and nurses united by a genuine love for animals. Joining us means joining something bigger — a network that invests in your growth, your wellbeing, and your future.
Here's what that looks like day to day:
Real career pathways — whether you want to develop a speciality in surgical, emergency, or dental nursing, step into a Head Nurse role, or grow into practice management — we'll support you every step of the way
Paid parental leave — flexible programs for primary and secondary carers, plus a return-to-work bonus
Health & wellbeing support — EAP, Mental Health First Aid network, and fitness benefits
Pet Benefits — Enjoy savings on pet essentials and insurance for your furry companions as part of VetPartners' employee benefits package
Nurse Advisory Committee — ANZ's first national vet nurse committee, championing the profession
Connected community — access to a network of over 1,000 vets and nurses across ANZ
