This is a virtual role requiring travel and possible overnight stays on a regular basis to support customer onboarding and team meetings.

Who you are

• You have clinical veterinary certification as either a qualified vet or vet nurse.
• Must have experience with Animana and Smartflow.

• You effortlessly adapt to your audience’s needs and are constantly assessing the effectiveness of your communications to ensure you’re understood.
• You’re a great listener and patient teacher of people with varying skills and experience levels.
• You are great at planning ahead and always start with the end in mind to ensure that your clients are future-proofed.
• You work well under pressure with tight time constraints but are also not afraid to take a step back and look critically at what needs to be done.
• Due to the nature of SaaS, you should be comfortable with change and ambiguity, showing resilience and agility.
• You are skilled in objection handling, enabling you to keep the client focused whilst managing the change process.
• You thrive on traveling to see “your” clients and are happy to be away from home on a regular basis.

Client Session Preparation & Support

• Set clear expectations and deadlines to balance the needs of the customer and company.
• Deliver high-quality customer-facing sessions in line with documented processes.
