Veterinary Nurse

Job Description

Veterinary Nurse (Part-Time) | Greencross Vets Wyoming & Wyong | Central Coast, NSW

Where else can you spend your day caring for beloved family pets, assisting in surgery, and helping treat everything from puppies and kittens to pythons, bearded dragons, and blue tongue lizards?

At Greencross Wyoming, we're looking for an experienced Veterinary Nurse to join our passionate and close-knit team. This is a part-time opportunity offering a minimum of 9.5 hours per week, with the potential to work up to 38 hours per week depending on your availability and clinic needs.

This role provides the opportunity to work across both Greencross Wyoming and Greencross Wyong, giving you variety, flexibility, and exposure to a diverse caseload while being supported by two fantastic teams.

Why You'll Love Working Here

At Greencross Wyoming, we've built something special. Our team is supportive, welcoming, and genuinely enjoys coming to work each day. We work hard, celebrate successes together, and support one another through the busy days. Whether you're looking to further develop your skills, learn from experienced colleagues, or simply find a clinic where you feel valued, you'll find it here.

One of the things that makes our clinic unique is our regular exotic and reptile caseload. From snakes and lizards to turtles and other exotic species, you'll have the opportunity to work alongside a senior veterinarian with a special interest in exotics and reptiles, providing hands-on experience that many nurses rarely get the chance to enjoy.

Our experienced Practice Manager is passionate about creating a positive workplace culture, and our skilled nursing team works collaboratively to ensure both patients and team members receive the support they need to thrive.

Working across both Wyoming and Wyong clinics, you'll enjoy exposure to diverse cases, supportive teams, and a loyal client base that trusts us with the care of their pets.
