Part-Time / Full-time Veterinary Receptionist
This is not “just a reception job.”
At Swanbourne Veterinary Centre, reception is where care begins. You are the first voice a worried client hears, the calm presence in busy moments, and the person who helps our vets and nurses deliver exceptional care.
We’re looking for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, genuinely loves people and their pets, and understands that empathy and efficiency go hand in hand.
About the Role
- Greet clients warmly and professionally
- Manage phone calls, bookings and follow-ups
- Maintain accurate records and process payments
- Support our veterinary and nursing team with administration
- Communicate clearly about procedures, pricing and policies
- Help ensure smooth day-to-day front desk operations
This role requires strong attention to detail, excellent communication skills, and the ability to stay calm under pressure.
About You
- You’re more than organised – you’re perceptive.
- You notice when someone is anxious, when a situation needs calm, and when something doesn’t look right. You stay steady in busy moments and think clearly under pressure.
- You communicate with warmth and confidence, adapt your approach to different people, and take pride in accuracy and confidentiality. You’re a team player who anticipates what needs to happen next.
Previous veterinary or medical reception experience is highly regarded, but emotional intelligence, reliability and attention to detail are what truly matter in this role.
Why Join Us
- Supportive, team-focused culture
- High standards of patient care
- Meaningful work where what you do truly matters
- A clinic that values kindness, professionalism and teamwork
If you’re looking for a role where your organisational skills and empathy make a genuine difference every day, we’d love to hear from you.
