Job Description

Veterinary Technician Supervisor (RVT Preferred)
Urgent Pet Veterinary Hospital · Full-time · In person

About Us
Urgent Pet Veterinary Hospital is a new concept in Bay Area veterinary care: an independently owned hospital dedicated entirely to urgent care. Around 90% of patients seen in emergency rooms aren’t true emergencies, and because ER cases are triaged by severity, those pets and their owners often face long, stressful waits. We created Urgent Pet as a better alternative, offering same-day appointments for urgent cases, the highest standard of medical care, and minimal wait times.

Without corporate mandates or shareholder pressure, our decisions are driven by good medicine and genuine client care. We use VetRadar and ezyVet to keep patient care and records running smoothly. We’re looking for an experienced Lead Technician to help guide our technical team as we grow.

Requirements

• With RVT license: Current California RVT license and at least 3 years of experience as an RVT, including management or supervisory experience
• Without RVT license: At least 5 years of veterinary technician experience, including management or supervisory experience
• All candidates: Willingness to learn VetRadar and ezyVet (experience with either is a plus)

We have one opening and welcome applicants from either background.

Clinical Duties

• Assist with physical exams, collect samples, and run in-house diagnostics
• Place IV catheters, monitor anesthesia, and support patients through recovery
• Take and process digital radiographs and assist with ultrasound
• Administer medications and treatments as directed by our veterinarians
• Keep accurate medical records and walk clients through home-care instructions

Leadership Duties

• Manage daily scheduling and workflow for the technical team
• Train, mentor, and onboard veterinary assistants and technician assistants
• Develop and maintain technical protocols and SOPs in partnership with our doctors
• Serve as the main liaison between the technical team, doctors, and practice management
• Oversee inventory of medical supplies, pharmaceuticals, and equipment
• Provide performance feedback and help resolve day-to-day team concerns

Your Team
You’ll work alongside our doctors, veterinary assistants, and technician assistants in a well-equipped, collaborative treatment area.
