Weekend jobs in Canada

We build some of the most innovative products in the veterinary diagnostic industry, each of which helps keep our pets happy and healthy. The veterinarians that use these tools rely on Field Support Representatives (FSR) to teach them how to make the best use of these machines and to troubleshoot if there are technical issues. We are looking for people, like you, who are expert communicators, are highly organized, and who treat every customer interaction with empathy and teamwork. The Field Support Representative positions are field based and require daily travel from a home office.

Ideal candidate must live in Edmonton, Alberta or surrounding areas such as Sherwood Park, Beaumont, Spruce Grove, St. Albert. A fleet vehicle is included!

You can expect to have a dynamic and exciting career with IDEXX that utilizes your veterinary practice experience and technical skills, allows you to travel, meet new people, expand your knowledge and skill set, all while positively impacting the lives of pets and their owners.

Our day to day consists of meeting new people and building relationships with our customers. Building relationships and working as a positive team player is a must! You’ll be challenged every day as you work alongside the best team in the industry. The FSR role continues to evolve to best support our customers’ needs, so you can expect continued growth within your position through comprehensive training programs.

As an FSR you will work closely with your Field Sales Representatives and Customer Support to develop strategies to maintain your Customer Accounts through education and other customer‑centric solutions.

You will install and train staff in the clinic on the best way to use IDEXX analyzers (ProCyte, Catalyst One, SediVue).

You will assist with critical customer need visits, providing onsite technical support when things are not going according to plan. No two days will ever be the same. You will be expected to visit customers in the field every day; occasionally adjusting your schedule as needed to attend customer events and to accommodate visits to emergency practices.

Experience as a Registered Veterinary Technologist (RVT) or equivalent is considered a strong asset, as it provides valuable clinical insight, enhances communication with veterinary professionals, and supports effective training and troubleshooting in practice environments.

To be successful in this role you will need to possess a minimum of three (3) years veterinary clinic experience with a training and / or leadership background strongly preferred.

You must be able to build strong customer and peer partnerships, effectively communicate and collaborate with customers, management, and peers, and have the ability to plan and prioritize work in a dynamic environment.

Effective listening skills are imperative to discover customer needs and adapt your approach and demeanor to different situations.
