What are the responsibilities and job description for the Veterinary Technician or Assistant position at Chapin Veterinary Care Center?
We are looking for a veterinary technician or assistant to join our team! This is a full-time position with a benefits package that includes health insurance and discounted veterinary care for the furry members of your family.
The position available is a nine hour shift from 9am to 6pm five days a week that includes a one hour lunch, and one Saturday (7:30am to 12pm) a month. We are not offering part-time positions at this time.
Located in the rapidly growing and family-friendly lakeside community of Chapin, our clinic is a busy small animal (cats and dogs only) veterinary practice that highly values our relationships with both clients and staff members. Our clinic is privately owned by Dr. Kris Laabs, and includes two full-time veterinarians and several part-time doctors.
Because we are privately owned, we are able to offer a very supportive and team-driven environment that promotes a healthy work-life balance, and to that end we ensure that every fulltime employee gets a one hour lunch break every day. You will work the same consistent 8/9 hour schedule that you're hired for every day without surprises! All we ask is that you bring a good work ethic that includes being reliable and punctual, a positive outlook and a willingness to work efficiently as a team. And of course, a love of animals is a must!
Applicants must have previous experience in the veterinary field as an assistant or technician, and at least a basic skillset that includes animal restraint, assisting in appointments, and venipuncture.
We look forward to hearing from you!
