ABOUT VEG
In 2014, VEG was born with a mission to help people and their pets when they need it most. Since then, we’ve expanded across the U.S. and into Canada, with hospitals open 24/7, 365 days a year. At VEG do things differently, from having open-concept hospitals, where you can handle emergency cases of all kinds (even exotics!), to creating an emergency experience that gives customers and patients the care they deserve.
We’ve also created a better experience for everyone who works here—our VEGgies! At VEG we find a way to say yes to the career you want in veterinary emergency medicine. Yes to working in an environment where you can find your place and feel valued for the amazing work you do. Yes to having unparalleled opportunities for learning and mentorship so you can grow where you want to go in your career. And yes to having a voice—and the support—to make an impact here in ways you never thought possible.
THE JOB
Being a Support Staff Manager means doing more than simply leading a veterinary support staff team. It means building a culture where people are supported, connected, and proud of the work they do. Through your compassion, collaboration, and a deep investment in your people, you’ll play a vital role in shaping what emergency support staff leadership should look like. You’ll be the bridge between process and purpose—ensuring exceptional patient care while creating an environment where VEGgies grow, thrive, and brag about where they work. This isn’t your typical leadership role. It’s your opportunity to create a better emergency experience for your team, our customers, and yourself.
