Hospital & Internal Partner Collaboration

• Work closely with VetAM, HSP, and Enterprise to ensure hospitals are matched with the right veterinary professionals.
• Track hiring needs and placement opportunities to inform pipeline development.

• Identify workflow gaps or bottlenecks and suggest process improvements.
• Support testing and rollout of new tools or processes aimed at improving efficiency and experience.

Tracking & Reporting

• Assist with data entry and report generation to support internal visibility and forecasting.
• Monitor milestones and timelines for placements to ensure timely progress and stakeholder communication.

Billing & Administrative Support

• Coordinate with finance to ensure accurate billing for completed placements.
• Help resolve billing-related issues by liaising between internal teams and hospital partners.

Qualifications

• 2-4 years of experience in account coordination, inside sales, recruiting, or a client-facing operations role where managing multiple relationships simultaneously was core to the work
• Demonstrated ability to manage a pipeline or portfolio of active candidates, deals, or accounts without losing track of where things stand or what needs to move next
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with a knack for making people feel supported and informed throughout a process
• Experience working cross-functionally with multiple stakeholders or teams to drive outcomes
• Comfortable working in a CRM (HubSpot, Salesforce, or similar) to manage pipelines, log activity, and generate reports
• Ability to identify process gaps and take initiative to flag or address them, rather than waiting to be asked
• Organized, self-directed, and able to prioritize in a fast-moving environment
• A genuine interest in the veterinary or healthcare space, or in helping professionals find meaningful career opportunities
