Enfield Veterinary Hospital, Inner West Sydney (posted 25th November) Reception Nurse
One of THE BEST vet hospitals that you could work at is hiring! Part Time or Full Time (receptionist, surgery only or a mix of both).
Enfield Veterinary Hospital is a busy veterinary clinic in the inner west. We are a well loved and cared for team of 8 vets, 11 nurses and 3 kennel hands (4 vets per day, 7 nurses and 1 kennel hand). We have an incredible work environment where everyone is treated fairly and with respect.
A little bit about what we do:
We do a wide variety of surgeries here with very little referrals. Of course there is the usual; desexing, lumpectomies and dentals but we also do orthopaedic surgeries including TPLO's, splenectomies, regular ultrasounds and digital xrays, dental xrays and we treat and manage an abundance of hospital patients.
We are open Monday to Friday 8am-7:30pm, Saturday 8-4pm and Sunday 8:30am-2pm.
We encourage regular CPD training which is paid for by management.
We also provide lunch daily and celebrate everyone's birthday with a delicious cake.
Our nurses at Enfield are all highly skilled and have a high level of involvement in all aspects of nursing.
A few things that are extremely important to us is burnout in the industry and being aware of this, having support in a clinic (everyone has their off days), getting proper allocated 30 min lunch breaks + extra coffee/tea breaks and that our client and patient care standards are at their highest.
What we would expect from you:
Regardless of the role you are after, if it's for reception only, surgery only or a mix of both we expect that all staff are enthusiastic, motivated, polite, willing to learn and adapt to new things and to respect their co workers and members of public.
There may be a time where some weekend work is needed but it is not an essential part of the job. There is likely to be a mix of early and late shifts (generally 8am-4pm or 11am-7:30pm but these can be shuffled around. IDEALLY, we would be after someone who is happy with predominantly late shifts but we are completely aware this isn’t always desirable and we can discuss shift times further.
If this sounds like the clinic for you, please email your resume to: ashleigh@enfieldvet.com

We passionately provide every small herbivore and avian patient with quality, evidence-based, humane veterinary care. But you probably figured that much from our name.
We are a workplace that faces challenges with a curious mind and embraces different perspectives, and together, we work to drive our area of medicine further. This certainly makes for a richer, more rewarding, and quirkier workplace.

The caseload is varied, high-paced, and top-end and we hold high expectations for our patients and client care. This isn’t for everyone, and that’s okay!
Our dedicated customer service superstars truly embody the heart and soul of our clinic. They are the welcoming voice on the phone and the friendly face that greets every client who walks through our doors, but more than that, they are the client advocates.
We place immense value on our receptionists, through their ability to foster strong relationships with our cherished clientele, expertly manage our daily schedule, and educate clients about the exceptional services that set us apart.
Every day, two dedicated receptionists are on hand to assist, backed by a clinical team member for additional support. As our clinical team expands, we invite you to join us in enhancing and continuing to develop the customer service experience at our clinic, making a positive impact on our clients' journeys.

We want someone who not only embraces change but actively champions it, leading to a remarkable customer care journey and improved patient outcomes. If you are eager for career growth and value both clinical and interpersonal training, we encourage you to join our mission!
Previous experience in the animal care industry with veterinary software is non negotiable, this role will not lead to any vet nursing positions.
