The pets – this is why we turn up every day. As a team we are fundamentally animal lovers and want to improve the lives of the pets that live in the community around us.
Out team – a good team of likeminded people who work well together is very important to us. In a vet clinic some days are hard and it’s important that the team can pull together and support each other. Other days are fun, and we want to be able to have a laugh together.
Our people – out clients, these are our ‘other people’. Some are wonderful, some are a challenge, but most have the best interest of their pets at heart. Forming lasting relationships that support our part in maintaining the animal human bond is essential to the success of the practice.
Who are we looking for?
The role is full time, 4 days a week with alternating Saturday morning shifts. We could however accommodate a flexible part time candidate as well. The candidate will need to have experience and skill with anaesthesia and patient restraint, or at least show strong aptitude in this area and a desire to learn. Depending on previous work experience 1-2 years as a qualified nurse would be a minimum. There will be occasional cover on reception but not often outside of the Saturday morning shifts so being able to communicate efficiently and effectively with the public is also required.
We feel it’s really important to meet and have a conversation with people to determine if the fit is right for both of us, so if you are looking for a new position, or even just want to see what’s out there, feel free to come in for a no pressure confidential conversation.
Remuneration is of course above award based on skills and experience and all standard benefits apply.
If you are interested, please send your CV and cover letter to Gemma Hunt (Practice Manager) at admin@companionvetcare.com.au
