This position works both independently and collaboratively with hospital leadership, clinical services, and Veterinary Clinical Sciences within a large animal veterinary teaching hospital environment. Because the Lloyd Veterinary Medical Center provides patient care 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, the manager must be available to support operational needs outside of normal business hours when necessary. This may include responding to urgent staffing issues, answering employee questions, and occasionally working evenings, weekends, holidays, or on-call shifts to ensure continuity of patient care. The position may involve exposure to animals, animal dander, odors, noise, zoonotic diseases, animal waste, and other veterinary clinical conditions.
The ideal candidate is a collaborative leader who is passionate about developing teams, supporting clinical excellence, and fostering a positive workplace culture. They possess strong operational acumen, excellent communication skills, and the ability to balance employee development, patient care priorities, and organizational objectives in a complex veterinary healthcare environment
