Licensed Veterinary Technician (LVT)

Job Description

Licensed Veterinary Technician (LVT) - High Skill / Surgical & Clinical Focus


Eastview Veterinary Clinic | Clarksville, TN
$20/hour+ (based on experience and proven skillset)


Eastview Veterinary Clinic is a high-volume, walk-in practice. Our pace is real, our cases are variable, and our success depends on having technicians who can step in and perform-not just assist.


We are looking for a highly skilled, experienced LVT who is confident in anesthesia, efficient in workflow, and capable of operating independently in a fast-moving environment.


This is not an entry-level role.
We need someone who already has the skillset-and wants to use it consistently.

What You'll Be Doing

• Independently manage anesthesia (induction → monitoring → recovery)
• Support and execute surgical and dental procedures at a high level
• Perform advanced technical skills (blood draws, catheter placement, radiology, triage)
• Jump into urgent and walk-in cases with confidence
• Work alongside our Lead LVT to maintain clinic flow and efficiency
• Help reinforce training and standards for Veterinary Assistants

Minimum Requirements (Please Read Carefully)

• Active Licensed Veterinary Technician (LVT)
• 3+ years of hands-on clinical experience
• RECOVER Basic Life Support
• Strong, independent anesthesia skills
• Experience in surgery, dental procedures, or ER/high-volume GP
• Ability to work efficiently without constant direction
• Consistent reliability-attendance, performance, and follow-through matter

What Sets You Apart

• You don't wait to be told what to do-you step in
• You can anticipate doctor and patient needs
• You stay productive even when the schedule isn't predictable
• You take pride in doing things correctly and efficiently
• You contribute to the team by raising the standard, not lowering it

What This Role Is Not

• Not a place to "grow into" core technical skills
• Not a slow-paced or highly predictable environment
• Not a position for someone who needs constant supervision

About Eastview

• Walk-in model with consistent caseload
• Growing focus on surgery, dentistry, and efficiency of care
• Team-oriented environment with clear expectations
• Actively building stronger systems, training, and clinical standards

Why This Role Matters


We are building a stronger, more efficient hospital-and that requires skilled technicians who can execute at a high level every day.


If you're an LVT who wants to be relied on, challenged, and part of a team that expects more...this is that opportunity.

Apply


Apply through Indeed with your resume and a brief overview of your clinical and surgical experience. Qualified applicants will receive a follow-up pre-screening questionnaire to help us better understand technical skill level, leadership experience, and overall fit for our clinic environment.


Selected candidates will then be invited for an in-person interview and working skills assessment. Candidates should be prepared to demonstrate hands-on technical competency prior to hire, including anesthesia knowledge, patient handling, and general clinical workflow skills.
