Full job description
Job Description
Practice Manager or Senior Veterinary Nurse | Greencross Riverway, Townsville QLD
Help build the team and culture from the beginning
What if your next role gave you the opportunity to help create the kind of clinic you have always wanted to work in?
We are preparing to reopen Greencross Riverway, our purpose-built veterinary clinic located near the banks of the Ross River in Townsville.
We are looking for an experienced Practice Manager or senior veterinary nurse ready to step into leadership and help shape the clinic’s next chapter.
This is not simply an opportunity to manage an existing team. You will play an important part in building the team, establishing how the clinic operates and creating a workplace where people feel supported, capable and proud of what they achieve together.
Leadership experience or your next step
You may already be managing a veterinary practice and be excited by the opportunity to build something from the ground up.
Alternatively, you may be an experienced senior veterinary nurse who is ready to move into practice management with support, development and an established network around you.
What matters most is your ability to bring people together, create structure and help build a positive clinic culture.
The clinic is ready. Now we are building the team.
Riverway is purpose-built for quality veterinary care, with dedicated consulting and treatment spaces and specialised facilities, including radioactive iodine treatment capabilities.
You will be supported by an experienced Area Manager, a Regional Clinical Director and our wider network of Townsville clinics. During the lead-up to reopening, you will have the opportunity to work within the local network, build relationships and contribute to the planning and development of Riverway.
Who would you love to work with again?
Great clinics are built by people who trust, respect and complement one another.
If there is a veterinarian or veterinary nurse you have worked particularly well with in the past, this could be an opportunity to explore working together again and help create something new.
Individual expressions of interest are equally welcome. You do not need to arrive with a team already around you.
What you will help shape
Depending on your experience, you will have the opportunity to:
Help establish the clinic’s day-to-day operations and ways of working
Support the recruitment and onboarding of the Riverway team
Create a welcoming and collaborative workplace culture
Lead, mentor and develop veterinary nurses
Work closely with the clinic’s veterinary leader
Establish efficient rosters, workflows and operational processes
Support a consistently positive client and patient experience
Build strong connections with the wider Townsville network and community
Who will thrive here
You could be a great fit if you:
Are an experienced Practice Manager or senior veterinary nurse ready for leadership
Understand what makes a veterinary clinic run effectively
Enjoy supporting people and creating a positive team environment
Communicate clearly and bring a calm, organised approach
Are comfortable taking initiative while collaborating with clinical and operational leaders
Want the opportunity to help build a clinic rather than simply step into an established structure
A Certificate IV in Veterinary Nursing is highly regarded for nursing applicants, alongside previous leadership, coordination or mentoring experience.
What we can offer
A genuine opportunity to influence the clinic’s culture and operations
Support and mentoring from an experienced Area Manager
Leadership development and structured career pathways
Access to Greencross’s internal continuing education program
Flexible working arrangements
Four weeks of annual leave
12% superannuation in addition to your base salary
Paid parental leave and flexible return-to-work support
Employee assistance and wellbeing programs
Discounts across Greencross Vets, the Animal Referral and Emergency Network and Petbarn
The support and security of an established national veterinary network
Life in Townsville
Located near the Ross River, Riverway is surrounded by parklands, lagoons, walking paths and community spaces.
Townsville offers a relaxed tropical lifestyle, with Magnetic Island, the Great Barrier Reef and North Queensland’s beaches and national parks all within easy reach.
