  • Develop action plans when needed to keep each hospital on track toward its goals.

Client Experience & Growth
  • Champion an exceptional client experience across both hospitals.
  • Support teams in resolving client concerns and escalations.
  • Identify opportunities to strengthen client relationships and increase visits through local marketing and community engagement.
  • Maintain an understanding of the local veterinary market, competition, and community needs.

What We're Looking For

Our ideal candidate has:
  • 3-5+ years of management experience, preferably within veterinary medicine, healthcare, or a service-based environment.
