Make sure V-Ray is your Renderer. This is done through Render Settings > Renderer.

Go to the Material Manager and from Create > Materials, select New Node Material.

Alternatively, go to Create > V-Ray > V-Ray Node Materials and select a V-Ray surface material from the list. If the Separate menu for V-Ray materials option in the Preferences is disabled, go to Create > V-Ray > V-Ray Node Materials.

The Node editor opens and you can now work with all available V-Ray nodes.
