    Job description

    • Do you want to be a part of a thriving vet technician team delivering high quality services to farmers?

    If so, and you’re a proactive, qualified Vet Technician, we need you to support our Pukekohe and Waiuku veterinarians and technicians with a range of tasks on a part-time basis. Hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 2pm.

    About Us

    Our Pukekohe & Waiuku Farm Services clinics cater to all large animals, including dairy cattle, sheep/beef, and horses, as well as lifestyle animals such as goats, alpacas and pigs. With dairy farms ranging in size from small family-owned operations to larger corporate farms calving in autumn and/or spring, our tech tasks are neither seasonal nor repetitive – making each day as a technician different. You could be teatsealing heifers in the morning then debudding calves in the afternoon!

    About the Job

    Our vet technicians are responsible for booking in, and delivering services which includes debudding, heifer teatsealing, dry cow insertion, metrichecking, blood sampling, young stock weighing and sheep/cattle capsuling.

    Our lifestyle technician service, available year-round, ensures our lifestyle client’s animals are getting gold standard animal health care. Organised and delivered by the technicians, you will be involved with drenching, vaccinating, foot trimming and general health checks.

    About You

    If you like a challenge, have great initiative and exceptional organisation skills then this is the job for you. You must have a recognised qualification, ideally with previous experience, as well as:

    • Be committed to delivering high quality services to farmers
    • Positive and friendly
    • Excellent communication and organisational skills
    • Physically fit
    • Great animal handling skills
    • Work well under pressure independently or in a team
    • Able to work flexible hours

    Why Franklin Vets

    At Franklin Vets we pride ourselves on nurturing and growing our people to be the best they can be, while celebrating success and acknowledging good work.  Wellbeing initiatives, social events, and opportunities to expand your skills as a technician are some of the things on offer. We have internal tech trainings with the wider tech team throughout the year to develop skills and knowledge. We also encourage you to participate in external workshops and training courses.

    Family is important to us too. And because we know your pets are part of your extended family, we offer discounts on products and services to ensure they are happy and healthy.

    If you have a warm and friendly manner, enjoy a great team environment with plenty of support and opportunity to grow then we would love to talk with you.

    Please apply online with your CV and cover letter.
