Are you ready to be part of something extraordinary?
The Animal Cancer Centre of Western Australia (ACCWA) is WA's first dedicated veterinary oncology clinic. Led by WA's only full-time specialist veterinary oncologist, ACCWA is setting a new standard in personalised, compassionate cancer care for pets - and we're looking for like-minded veterinary nurses to join our growing team.

At ACCWA, this isn't just another nursing job — it's a chance to be part of something pioneering, purpose-driven, and deeply passionate. As WA's first dedicated cancer centre for pets, we're building a team that doesn't just treat disease — we support families, celebrate small wins, and bring calm to some of the hardest moments in pet care.
Here, you'll be more than a nurse. You'll be a trusted advocate, a skilled technician, and a valued teammate in a close-knit, supportive environment. You'll have time to connect with patients and their people, to grow your skills in oncology, and to contribute to a culture where empathy and excellence go hand in hand.
