Company Description
If you're an experienced vet nurse who thrives in surgery, loves hands‑on, high‑quality nursing, and enjoys the energy of a busy hospital, Greencross Port Macquarie is calling your name
Our clinic sits in one of Australia's most desirable coastal towns: beaches, wildlife, hiking trails, and a laid‑back community vibe that makes work–life balance feel effortless. Pair that with a team culture you'll actually love walking into each day and this is a role worth getting excited about.
Why You'll Love Working With Us
