Veterinary Nurse & Technician Opportunities

Small Animal * Equine * Mixed Practice

At WestVETS, we are a friendly, community-focused mixed practice, offering gold standard veterinary care for both small animals and large animals, operating out of two purpose-built facilities.

Our Anstead practice consists of a small animal clinic and equine hospital, and our Marburg practice consists of a small animal clinic and equine reproduction centre. We practice a high standard of medicine and surgery including orthopaedic surgeries. We are equipped with digital x-ray, dental x-ray, exceptional anaesthesia monitoring equipment, ultrasound, endoscopy and in-house laboratory equipment.

We are always on the lookout for enthusiastic, hard-working, dynamic people to join our nursing team at our Anstead and Marburg clinics. Successful applicants must display commitment to a high level of patient care, excellent customer service, excellent communication skills, prioritise workload, work well in a team environment and can work unsupervised when necessary.

Ideal candidates will have prior experience in a busy Veterinary Practice and must be qualified with minimum Cert IV in Veterinary Nursing.

We offer full-time and casual positions at both clinics. Applications are welcome from both small animal and equine veterinary nurses.
