Veterinary Nurse—Part-Time and Full-Time Positions Available

Are you ready to be part of something extraordinary?

The Animal Cancer Centre of Western Australia (ACCWA) is WA’s first dedicated veterinary oncology clinic. Led by WA’s only full-time specialist veterinary oncologist, ACCWA is setting a new standard in personalized, compassionate cancer care for pets - and we’re looking for like-minded veterinary nurses to join our growing team.

Whether you're looking for part-time flexibility or a full-time role with purpose, we invite you to help us build something special.

About ACCWA

Everything we do is centered on providing meaningful care for pets with cancer and supporting the families who love them. Our tight-knit, referral-only team delivers care in a stress-free, Fear Free Certified environment, supported by cutting-edge technology and robust safety practices.

As WA’s first dedicated cancer center for pets, we’re building a team that doesn’t just treat disease - we support families, celebrate small wins, and bring calm to some of the hardest moments in pet care.

Here, you’ll be more than a nurse. You’ll be a trusted advocate, a skilled technician, and a valued teammate in a close-knit, supportive environment. You’ll have time to connect with patients and their people, to grow your skills in oncology, and to contribute to a culture where empathy and excellence go hand in hand.
