Veterinary Assistant

Job description: Muir Field is hiring! We're looking for a Veterinary Assistant to join the team! The original owner has retired and Precision Veterinary has taken over. Currently our staff from the main clinic is floating over to help cover the new facility, but it's a small neighborhood clinic and clients would prefer someone they can get to know that's there consistently.

The basics:

Full-time, Monday through Friday, normal 8-hour day with a real lunch and breaks. No nights. No on-call. I would love to expand into weekends eventually, but not now — and it wouldn't land on one person if we did. Assistant pay starts around $37,500 . Salaried, not hourly so that if the day is light you don't have to hang out with me just to pay rent. Want to become a tech? We'll pay for school for the right fit. We've done it before, more than once. Your pay goes up the day you pass your boards. George currently manages the clinic, but I would love to fire myself at some point so if you're interested in that side of things, I'm happy to train you onto it About us: Muir Field is a small 21 year old clinic with one vet. It recently partnered with Precision Veterinary — an eight year old rescue + affordable care clinic. What makes us different is where the money goes. We partner with more than 150 rescues and shelters and covered the care behind tens of thousands of adoptions. Precision exists to provide access to care prior to adoption and Muir Field to continue to provide it for the rest of their lives. What the work is actually like: There isn't much direct oversight. People just do what needs doing. So, we hire pretty selectively for character — if you don't take care of something, somebody else has to aand will. That only works if everyone gets along, so we hire for culture fit as much as skills and experience. Most of us are a little introverted and a little awkward. That seems to be how it goes in vet med. But they're good people, they work hard, and they're easy to be around. A fair number of them hang around the clinic even when they're off, which seems like a good sign. While Muir Field is a separate location and a smaller group, the larger team still has a lot of contact and interaction since it's only a few miles away.
