Veterinary Hospital Director (Practice Manager)

Scout Veterinary Urgent Care was built on a simple belief: veterinary professionals deserve careers that are sustainable, rewarding, and built to last. We're a growing, multi-location urgent care practice in the Chicago area, and we're bringing Scout to Wisconsin with our first Milwaukee-area hospital in Brookfield, opening in early 2027. Our clinical teams are tight-knit, engaged, and invested in the work. Our leadership is accessible, involved, and collaborative. If you want a place where workflows are buttoned up, the culture is intentional, and the people around you actually care, this might be it.

About this role:

We're looking for a Veterinary Hospital Director to build and lead Scout Brookfield from the ground up. This is a high-visibility, high-accountability role that sits where people, process, and performance meet. It's also a chance to shape a hospital from day one.

You'll start before the doors open. You'll help hire the founding team, get the clinic ready to launch, and introduce Scout to the local veterinary community. After opening, you'll be the hospital's operational lead. You'll make sure the clinic runs smoothly, the team is supported, clients are taken care of, and the numbers make sense.

You'll work closely with our Executive Leadership and Clinical Support Teams, but you'll be Scout's leader on the ground in Brookfield.

This is not a behind-the-scenes role. You'll be in the clinic and out in the community, and your fingerprints will be on nearly every part of how Scout Brookfield runs.

Work Style & Culture Fit:

Scout is growing, so things move fast and plans change. We're building processes as we go, and this role needs someone who's energized by that.

You'll be in the clinic regularly and out visiting referral partners and community events. Some work can be done off-site, but this isn't a remote job. Leading up to opening, you'll be on-site to manage the launch. Sometimes you'll need to step in and cover front-of-house shifts. It won't happen often, but it's part of the job.

We're looking for someone who steps up without being asked and goes beyond the role to help the team succeed, like the other leaders at Scout.

Salary: $75,000–$85,000/year, depending on experience. Compensation grows with your scope: as Scout grows in Wisconsin, so does the opportunity.

Benefits:

Location:

Scout Brookfield, Brookfield, WI. This is Scout's first Wisconsin hospital. If you're excited about shaping what a new clinic looks like from day one, this is that opportunity.
