Your Next Chapter in Veterinary Care Starts Here

You know what it feels like when a veterinary team is waiting for answers. Diagnostic images have been submitted. Clinical history is essential. A treating veterinarian needs timely, accurate information to make important decisions. Somewhere, a concerned pet owner is waiting for news about a beloved animal.

At Vet's Choice Radiology (VCR) , your work helps connect those moments.

We're seeking experienced veterinary nurses and veterinary technicians who excel at clinical coordination, attention to detail, and supporting exceptional patient care. This is an opportunity to apply your veterinary knowledge in a different way, helping veterinary teams and board-certified specialists work together through a global teleradiology service.

Choose a Schedule That Fits Your Lifestyle

Veterinary care never stops, and neither do we. VCR provides specialist teleradiology services 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

As part of our New Zealand team, your schedule will align with U.S.-based overnight operations while allowing you to work daytime and afternoon hours locally.

Available Schedule Options (New Zealand Time)

Option 1
Monday, Tuesday, Saturday and Sunday
2:00 p.m. - 12:00 midnight NZST (3:00 p.m. - 1:00 a.m. during NZDT)

Employees receive an additional shift differential for designated weekend hours.

What You'll Be Doing

You won't be interpreting diagnostic studies or making medical diagnoses. Instead, you'll play a critical role in ensuring cases move efficiently and accurately through the diagnostic process.

Review and Optimise

Review imaging submissions for completeness, image quality, clinical history, and patient information before radiologist review.

Keep Cases Moving

Monitor workflow queues and identify issues that could affect turnaround times.

Solve Clinical Gaps

Work directly with veterinary practices to obtain missing information, clarify requests, and document next steps.

Support Veterinary Teams

Provide timely and professional communication that helps veterinary professionals feel informed and supported.

Work with Modern Technology

Utilise Salesforce, Microsoft 365, Teams, and specialised veterinary radiology platforms to support daily operations.

Comprehensive Training and Support

Your success begins with structured onboarding.

You'll receive approximately four weeks of fully paid training alongside experienced Team Leads who will guide you through our systems, workflows, quality standards, and communication processes.

The goal is simple: to ensure you feel confident, supported, and set up for long-term success.
