Job description

Overview

Make a Difference When It Matters Most. At Emergency Veterinary Care Centers (EVCC), we show up for pets and the people who love them on some of their hardest days. If you thrive in fast-paced environments, believe teamwork saves lives, and want to work somewhere your voice truly matters — this could be your place.

EVCC was created by veterinarians, for veterinarians — and for the communities they serve. Founded by 36 local general practice veterinarians (many still actively involved today), we were built to support the veterinary community, not compete with it. Our Westville hospital is our first location and we are proud to bring trusted, emergency-only care to the region. What defines EVCC isn’t just what we do — it’s how we do it.

We lead with compassion, respect and elevate our technicians, support each other without ego, communicate openly and professionally, and recognize that emergency medicine is demanding — and take care of our team because of it.

Role

Role: RVT (Overnight)

As an Emergency Credentialed Veterinary Technician, you’re part of a team that thrives on the front lines of emergency veterinary care where every second counts. You’ll handle a wide range of cases, from minor to complex emergencies, collaborating with our doctors and team in delivering gold standard, emotionally intelligent care. You’ll jump into triage, treatments, diagnostics, anesthesia, monitoring, and critical care nursing, all while being a steady, compassionate presence for pet parents in their most stressful moments. This role is for someone who wants to do the work they were trained to do (and more), continue growing their skills, and help people and their pets when they need it most.

What You’ll Do

Treat every patient and person like they matter — you keep people and pets together and stay by their side through tests, treatments, and everything in between
Jump into action, delivering nursing care, treatments, and emotional support in the most critical moments, from triage to discharge
Bring the meds, the monitoring, and the mastery — from IVs and CRIs to blood transfusions and beyond
Communicate like a teammate and think like a leader, helping shape plans and keep care flowing
All the techy stuff — from diagnostics and imaging to sample collection and placing tubes
Anesthesia, even for our most fragile patients? You’ve got it
Use all the cutting-edge techniques in your toolkit: advanced lines (jugular catheters, arterial lines), ultrasound and more
Identify subtle changes in patient status and advocate accordingly

This role requires confidence, resilience, and heart.

Who Thrives Here

What You’ll Need

Are a Licensed Veterinary Technician (Associate’s + VTNE passed)
Have 2+ years of veterinary experience (ER preferred but not required)
Basic computer skills and a comprehension of practice management software and electronic medical record keeping
Excellent communicator and calm under pressure; ready to lend a hand to support those around you
Fine motor skills for handling patients and medical equipment
Ability to stand for prolonged hours, kneel, and work on the floor as well as ability to lift up to 40 lbs on own and able to support up to 80 lbs with assistance
Must be willing to work in a noisy environment with strong or unpleasant odors
Availability to work nights, weekends, and holidays on a rotating or as needed basis based on hospital needs
Work well in a fast-paced environment with people from all backgrounds and different personality types

We offer:

Competitive compensation (depending on experience) including base and 401K match
Comprehensive health and wellness benefits that start on day one
Flexible work schedules to support your life outside of work
