Who are we?
Wanneroo Vet Hospital is a busy small animal hospital that has been operating since 1978. We have established great client-relationships, and we have a large client base with a high number of long-standing costumers. In fact, we have been looking after families for generations!

How good is that?
There is no after-hours work and wages are paid well above award, based on experience and attitude.
Continued education is encouraged and supported, and we strive to always look after our patients as best as we possibly can.

- Assisting the vets with radiography, surgical and diagnostic procedures
- Monitoring anaesthetics and surgery, and monitoring patients in recovery.
- Caring for hospitalised animals, establishing IV lines and fluid therapy, blood tests among others.
What are we looking for?
The ideal candidate will have excellent communication, listening and customer service skills, as well as extensive knowledge of animal health.
We seek someone whose professional values align with those of the team.
Good computer skills are essential, and although having experience working with Cornerstone Veterinary Practice Management software will be highly regarded, it is not a must. We will train the right candidate for the role.
To be a successful candidate you need to hold a certificate IV in veterinary nursing and be registered with the Veterinary Practice Board of WA.
The successful candidate will have plenty of support from the team around you.
So, if you are interested in becoming part of a fun and exciting team who are dedicated to animal welfare, then we want to hear from you!
