Sanctuary Cove Vet | Gold Coast QLD | Opening 9 November 2026
Help Shape the Future of Veterinary Practice
Most veterinary clinics don't currently employ Veterinary Technologists in dedicated roles. At Apiam Animal Health, we believe Veterinary Technologists bring a unique combination of scientific knowledge, clinical reasoning and technical expertise that can significantly enhance patient care and support veterinary teams. That's why we're excited to introduce a dedicated Veterinary Technologist position as part of the founding team at Sanctuary Cove Vet.
Opening on 9 November 2026, Sanctuary Cove Vet is a brand-new boutique companion animal practice being purpose built in one of Australia's most prestigious waterfront communities. This is a rare opportunity to help establish a role that remains relatively uncommon within Australian private practice and demonstrate the value Veterinary Technologists can bring to modern veterinary medicine.
A Clinic Designed Around Excellence
Sanctuary Cove Vet has been intentionally designed as a boutique practice where strong client relationships, continuity of care and thoughtful medicine are at the heart of everything we do. We'll open with a close-knit team of veterinarians, nurses, client care professionals and a Veterinary Technologist, all working together to create something special from day one.
About the Role
Working alongside our veterinarians and nursing team, you'll apply advanced scientific knowledge, clinical reasoning and technical skills to support patient care, clinical efficiency and evidence based veterinary practice. You will be involved in:
- Advanced patient monitoring and anaesthesia support
- Diagnostic laboratory procedures
- Imaging and diagnostic support
- Medical and surgical patient care
- Client education and communication
- Clinical protocols and workflow improvement
- Supporting evidence based veterinary practice
- Mentoring and developing technical nursing skills within the team
This is not simply a senior nursing position. It is an opportunity to help shape one of the first dedicated Veterinary Technologist roles within our companion animal clinic network.
About You
You will have:
- A Bachelor of Veterinary Technology or equivalent qualification
- Strong clinical and technical skills
- Experience in diagnostics, patient monitoring and imaging
- A passion for learning and evidence-based practice
Most importantly, you'll be excited by the opportunity to help build something new.
The Best of Both Worlds
Sanctuary Cove Vet will work closely with Hope Island Central Vet and Ormeau Vet, creating a collaborative local network of veterinary professionals. Hope Island Central Vet will also feature advanced imaging capabilities, including CT, creating exciting opportunities for collaboration, learning and exposure to more advanced diagnostics.
