Junior Veterinary Nurse.
Orana Clyde Pet Hospital | Clyde, Victoria.
You Don't Need to Be an Amazing Veterinary Nurse Yet.
But you should want to become one.
Orana Clyde Pet Hospital is brand new.
We're building our nursing team from the beginning, and we're looking for a junior veterinary nurse who wants to build their career with us.
You might have recently completed your Cert IV.
You might still be studying.
Or perhaps you've been nursing for a little while and know there's still a lot you want to learn.
That's okay.
We don't expect you to walk through the door knowing everything.
We're much more interested in whether you want to get better.
We Want Nurses to Nurse
There's a big difference between having a nursing qualification...
And becoming a really good veterinary nurse.
That takes time. Practice. Feedback. Good people around you.
And the opportunity to actually use your skills.
At Orana, we want our nurses involved in patient care and working alongside our vets.
As your confidence and capability grow, so will what you're trusted to do.
You'll learn.
You'll practise.
You'll make mistakes.
You'll ask questions.
You'll get feedback.
Then you'll get better and try again.
It's about progression, not perfection.
What Are You Like?
You don't need years of experience.
But we can't teach you everything.
You care.
You turn up ready to contribute.
You ask when you don't know.
You listen when someone takes the time to teach you.
You take feedback without falling apart.
And when something needs doing, you're prepared to help — even when it isn't the most exciting job in the hospital.
You genuinely like people too.
Because veterinary nursing isn't only about animals.
It's worried owners. Busy teammates. Difficult days. Great outcomes. Sad ones too.
We want someone who can be kind, calm and useful through all of them.
You'll Have People to Learn From
We're building a nursing team with different levels of experience.
You'll work alongside experienced nurses who can teach you, challenge you and help you develop.
And with vets who understand that great nursing makes them better vets too.
Ask questions.
Watch.
Have a go.
Ask for help.
Then have another go.
That's how you get better.
You're Joining at the Beginning
Orana is a brand-new hospital, but we're not starting without experience behind us.
We're the sister clinic to our established Clyde Veterinary Hospital.
So you'll have established systems, standards of care and experienced people around you.
But you'll also join Orana right near the beginning.
There will be quieter days while the hospital grows.
Use them.
Practise a skill. Learn a protocol. Ask someone to show you something.
Because the hospital won't stay quiet forever.
And as Orana grows, we'd love you to grow with it.
A year or two from now, we'd love you to look back and realise just how much better you've become.
More confident.
More capable.
More skilled.
And perhaps, one day, you'll be the experienced nurse helping the next junior nurse find their feet.
Do Great Work. With People You Actually Enjoy Working With.
We have high standards.
For our patients.
For our clients.
And for ourselves.
But high standards don't require a miserable workplace.
We want to work hard.
Learn.
Help each other.
Have a laugh.
And go home knowing we did something worthwhile with people we actually enjoyed spending the day with.
That sounds like a pretty good place to work to us.
