Job details
Are you a registered veterinary technician with great technical skills, a warm demeanour and an open mind? Come work with us!
Pandosy Village Veterinary Hospital is a growing, vibrant hospital in the trendy Pandosy Village District of Kelowna. We are committed to offering our clients both alternative and conventional medicine, with conventional services such as dentistry and surgery, as well as alternative options including acupuncture, chiropractic care, herbal medicine and nutritional therapy. Our well-rated hospital is the official partner of the University of British Columbia (UBC) Okanagan's BARK Therapy program.
As an integrated practice, our work is varied and challenging, and we never stop learning. Our amazing base of committed clients really want the best for their pets, and we provide the best medicine we can. As examples, we run pre-anesthetic bloodwork before every dental/surgical procedure, we offer titre testing for immunity (sent to an outside laboratory), and we offer multi-modality support for all chronic ailments. Recently, our technical staff have taken professional development in acupuncture support, nutritional therapy, dentistry support and more.
Our culture is warm, caring, family- and health-focused. We have fourteen staff members, and we all enjoy walking or biking to work, hiking on the weekends and more! Our clinic has an informal, relaxed atmosphere. We offer an alternative transportation allowance, professional development allowance and uniforms for all staff, as well as extended healthcare benefits for our full-time staffs' families. We always try to limit overtime work hours, and we close all long weekends for family time.
Our facility is bright and open, with three spacious exam rooms, a daylight surgical suite and brand new lab machines. Our clinic is, and has always been, completely paperless. Within our warm brick and glass facility we also have a high end pet store, which our staff enjoy as much as our visiting furry clients. Your work would include preparing for and assisting in surgery and dentistry, running diagnostics, taking histories and coaching clients, participating in community events and more. You will be working with three veterinarians and a team of passionate, committed staff.
You will have a solid background in surgical prep, anesthesia monitoring, running lab work, and helping in dental procedures. Along with solid technical skills, we are looking for a technician who gets along well with others, self organizes, connects personally with clients and their pets, shares what they know, has a positive attitude and a drive to keep learning.
We value diversity and welcome employees from all different backgrounds.
We have full-time work available for 4-5 days a week. This is currently a mat leave coverage position, however there is a possibility of continuing with our clinic in the future. Our clinic has been rapidly growing, and we are looking for additional support with surgery as well as medicine and wellness.
