Have you been fantis-eye-sing about a new role. Perth Animal Eye Hospital is seeking an experienced, self-motivated veterinary nurse to join our energetic, dynamic team. We pride ourselves on our on-the-job training and ongoing learning support.
This full time position is based in a busy ophthalmology referral hospital (the only one in WA) in the Southern Suburbs consisting of 2 specialists, 2 residents, 1 registrar and 6 nurses.

The working hours will be 38 worked Monday- Friday between 7:30 – 7:00pm with an on-call roster of one weekend every 5 to 6 weeks.

The right candidate will possess:
- Certificate IV in vet nursing or equivalent
- Minimum 2 years’ experience
- VSB registered.

- Ability to work quickly and efficiently in a close working relationship with your fellow teammates.
- Highly effective communication, customer service and interpersonal skills, and the demonstrated ability to collaborate with staff at all levels of the organisation.
- An amazing ‘can do’, team player attitude.
What we can offer:
- Predominantly weekday shifts – no more pesky weekend work other than the on-call roster
- An interesting and varied roll
- Highly supportive team environment
- Salary is above award and will be dependent on the experience you bring to the role.
- Full time 38 hour
