Job description

The Animal Cardiology Center (TACC) is growing on Long Island with a brand-new, purpose-built cardiology clinic in Woodbury. Led by board-certified veterinary cardiologist Dr. Sara Brethel, our team pairs advanced diagnostics and forward-thinking medicine with compassionate, highly personalized care. At TACC, we’re not just redefining what’s possible in veterinary cardiology, we’re setting the standard. As our third location in New York, our upcoming clinic in Woodbury is being built around what matters most: exceptional patient care, a supportive and transparent team culture, and an environment where great people can do their best work. Join us as we raise the standard for specialty cardiac care and deliver world-class medicine with heart.

We are seeking an experienced and compassionate Licensed Veterinary Technician with an interest in specialty practice. TACC's newly-built, modern and welcoming facility will ensure you have the tools, technology, and support needed to succeed, grow and thrive, and our mission to transform the veterinary profession's culture of burnout into a happier, healthier place has been rewarding.

This is a wonderful opportunity to use and expand your clinical skills and bodies of knowledge in a unique, specialty environment.

The Licensed Veterinary Technician at TACC is a vital member of the practice management team.

The position is essential in ensuring accurate, efficient and timely completion of daily clinical duties and responsibilities. The Tech also facilitates the flow of communication between doctors, the practice manager and clinical team members. This position also performs all of the duties of a licensed veterinary technician.

In addition to traditional Veterinary Technician duties, you will participate in:

• Advanced history taking

Our target start date for this position is January 18th, 2026.

What We Offer:

• The pay range for this role is $30 - $37/hr. Additional incentives and compensation available for candidates with a VTS and/or Cardiology specialty experience.
