As our caseload is constantly growing, The Austin Vet Specialists is expanding our nursing team. Our team is highly stable and high-performing—which means openings here are rare. Whether you already have specialist experience or you’re a vet nurse looking to take the next step with full training and support, we want to hear from you.

We are an independent, purpose-built centre that is named after the Owners cat! That means we have the freedom to make meaningful changes.

What makes us different?

- Real support: You’ll be guided by our Clinical Services Manager and a welcoming team. You will always have a strong team working alongside you.

- Never stop learning: We invest heavily in your growth, from Nursing Diplomas to specialised training.

- The Pooch Lounge: Yes, you can bring your dog to work! We have a dedicated space just for our team's pups.

- Top-tier pay: We believe excellent care deserves excellent pay. Enjoy a strong base salary (starting from $34 per hour) plus loading for nights and weekends.

The Role

You will handle a wide variety of cases including emergencies. This includes inpatient and critical care, emergency nursing, advanced anaesthesia monitoring, and pre/post-op care. In short:



you will do amazing nursing things that push your career forward.

What we’re looking for:

- Certificate IV in Veterinary Nursing or a Bachelor of Veterinary Technology.

- Minimum 1 year of experience.

- A desire to grow, a positive mindset, and a willingness to join a 3-4 day/week rotating roster (Mon–Sun, including nights).

- Above all: You love a laugh, care deeply about your patients, and want to progress your career.

Not sure if you're ready to apply?

We would love to invite you in for a coffee and a 'meet the team' session so you can see the space and get a feel for our day-to-day workplace. Or better still, grab your scrubs as we also offer a short observational visit so you can see what a typical day looks like here.
