Booking appointments and coordinating a busy daily schedule.

Checking patients in and out for consultations and hospital stays.

What Are We Looking For?

Someone who works well under pressure and with urgency.

Strong computer skills are essential; being tech-savvy is a bonus.

Veterinary nurse registration is not required—we’re happy to train the right candidate.
