Who We Are Old Derby Animal Hospital is a trusted leader in personalized veterinary care and we take the same intentional approach with our team. Our leadership is hands-on and invested: we coach, develop, and grow our people. You'll find competitive pay, real benefits (health, PTO, retirement, paid CE, and staff discounts), and a team that genuinely has each other's backs. What you won't find? Drama. The Role We're growing our team and looking for a Veterinary Medical Assistant to work alongside our veterinarians, veterinary technicians, and clients every day. This is a high-impact, hands-on role spanning our outpatient exam rooms, pharmacy, radiology, and in-house laboratory. You'll be in the middle of the action- handling patients, relaying critical information, supporting cases, and helping everything run smoothly. We'll make sure you're fully trained on every task we ask of you, and with paid Continuing Education and clear pathways for advancement, this role is built for someone ready to grow. What You'll Bring Real experience in an animal hospital or veterinary clinic setting- this isn't an entry-level role, and that background matters. A foundational working knowledge of veterinary medicine: terminology, workflows, and patient handling. Sharp attention to detail and the ability to follow direction. Questions welcome! Strong communication skills- you absorb information quickly and relay it clearly and confidently.

Accountability:
