Job description

Metropolitan Veterinary Hospital is Hiring a Veterinary Receptionist!

Role: Veterinary Receptionist
Status: Full-time
Salary: $19–$23 per hour
Schedule: 4 days a week

Are you someone with a passion for helping in all aspects of a veterinary hospital? Do you thrive in a compassionate, team-oriented environment, where there’s always a new opportunity to learn? If this sounds like you, we want you to join our team!

Here at Metropolitan Veterinary Hospital, we are looking for a versatile, hybrid team member who is able to support our front desk as a receptionist. We are a hard-working team that values excellent communication, and we are in need of an adaptable, people person who also shares our commitment to our community.

What You’ll Be Doing: You would help clients schedule appointments, find answers to their questions, and maintain communications. You would be working side-by-side with almost every member of our team and collaborating with our front desk staff, technicians, and veterinarians. We need someone who has extraordinary attention to detail and excellent client service.

What We’re Looking For: While a veterinary background is helpful, we never want to discourage those who do not have it from applying. The most important aspects of this job would be your ability to communicate effectively, pay attention to the details, and work productively with a team.

What We Offer: We offer a great work-life balance as we are open Monday through Friday, 8 am to 6 pm (no weekends!) and offer a variety of schedules within that time that both fit the needs of the hospital and our employees!

For our financial benefits, we have a flexible approach to compensation that reflects the skills that you bring to the team and outlines how to grow with future performance. For our Reception Team we offer $18 to $20 dollars an hour and quarterly bonuses of team rewards.

Full-time benefits include:

A flexible approach to compensation that will reflect your skillset and future performance
