  • Partner with WVP departments (marketing, recruiting, HR, business development, and finance and accounting) to create and implement plans that support business growth, including scheduling optimization, client growth and retention, identification of new services, recruitment of new DVMs, and expansion of existing sites and their capacity
  • Partner with hospitals to manage DVM capacity, identify and schedule relief, and plan for succession
  • Nurture and elevate innovation and growth ideas to build tangible, scalable programs
  • Forecast future business needs and develop comprehensive strategic plans at the hospital, market, and region levels

  • Based in the South Carolina geography
  • 5+ years of multi-site operational and/or management experience in fast-growth healthcare services businesses, including previous experience managing a business of similar size and complexity. Previous veterinary experience a plus
    • Multi-location operational and/or management experience highly preferred
  • P&L responsibility and experience with budget management, personnel management, and team building
  • Strong active listening and written and verbal communication skills; Executive presence
  • Ability to implement processes in collaboration with the VP of Operations to ensure company objectives are met
