AES Jindalee is a well-established emergency and critical care hospital providing life-saving treatment across a wide variety of cases, from GDVs and tick paralysis to snake bites.
We’re looking for a Veterinary Nurse to join our emergency team on a permanent part-time basis, working one weekend, Saturday and Sunday, per fortnight. With the option of 8 to 16 hours per fortnight, this is a great opportunity for someone looking for a smaller permanent commitment, returning to work after parental leave, or wanting to return to ECC nursing.
Why Join Us?
- You’ll work alongside an experienced and supportive team of emergency vets and nurses, with exposure to a varied and interesting ECC caseload.
- Our dedicated client care team manages financial discussions, allowing you to focus on what matters most, patient care.
- You’ll receive supported training with experienced mentors and buddies to help you settle into the team and hospital.
- The consistent weekend roster provides a great work life balance and could be particularly suited to someone looking to return to ECC or ease back into veterinary nursing.
