Field Leadership Careers
Not only do our veterinary hospitals benefit from the support of our headquarters in Portland, Oregon, but they also rely on the support of local field leadership to keep them running smoothly. This local team consists of three positions: Medical Director, Field Director and Field Trainer. These positions work to build independent, committed and high-performing teams.

In addition, medical directors partner with field trainers to ensure outstanding business practices and a high degree of professionalism in each veterinary hospital. Medical directors are expected to teach medical and surgical skills and to evaluate performance through frequent visits to hospitals. You will also maintain relationships with the veterinary schools and veterinary technician programs.
