Company Overview

CVCA Nashville is opening its doors, and we're looking for an exceptional Hospital Manager to help build our brand-new veterinary cardiology practice from the ground up. This is a rare chance to put your fingerprint on something truly new to shape the culture, operations, and success of a hospital from day one, with the full backing of an established network of veterinary cardiologists.

Excellence in Cardiology, Backed by a Strong Network

CVCA is dedicated to excellence in advanced cardiology, supporting pets and the veterinarians who entrust us with their most critical cases. Our commitment to exceptionally high standards has earned strong community trust and lasting referral relationships across our network. As Hospital Manager, you'll deliver that same standard in Nashville, supported by continuous access to educational resources, internal specialty consultations across disciplines, career advancement programs, and the technology your team needs to practice at the top of their license.

A Culture of Teammates, Not Employees

We believe that a great leader is someone who brings humility, empathy, positivity, and professionalism to everything they do. Great teams are built on accountability, direct communication, mutual respect, and collaboration, and as the leader of this hospital, you'll be the driving force in fostering that environment and hiring a team that embodies these values from the start.

Live and Lead in Nashville, Tennessee

Nashville is an incredible place to live and work, with a world-famous live music scene, a thriving culinary and cultural community, and the energy of one of the fastest-growing cities in the country. Beyond the city, you'll have easy access to lakes, state parks, and the mountains. It's a great combination to have a dynamic community with an exceptional quality of life.

Ready to Build With Us?

If leading a brand-new specialty hospital in a vibrant city sounds like the opportunity you've been waiting for, we'd love to hear from you. Help us lay the foundation for CVCA Nashville and make your mark on the future of advanced cardiac care.

Your Impact as a Credentialed Cardiology Veterinary Technician

Note: The Credentialed Veterinary Technician title is used in various states based on state-specific licensing and credentialing requirements. Responsibilities may vary depending on the hospital and/or state and will be outlined by the state's Veterinary Practice Act and/or the responsible veterinarian, where applicable.

• Perform Specialized Cardiac Diagnostics: You'll perform and assist with specialized diagnostics including ECGs, Holter monitor set-up and data collection, blood pressure measurement, and other advanced cardiac imaging.
• Ensure Precise Drug Calculation and Administration: You'll accurately calculate, prepare, and administer cardiac medications, sedatives, and emergency drugs.
• Perform Phlebotomy and Sample Collection: You'll perform venipuncture, place IV catheters, collect samples for laboratory analysis, and take radiographs.
• Provide Compassionate Care: You'll provide compassionate patient care and ensure patient comfort, all while maintaining a clean and organized facility.
• Create a Positive Client Experience: You'll discharge patients, review treatment plans and follow-up care with clients, and assist with client service operations such as answering phones and scheduling appointments.
• Drive Operational Excellence and Mentorship: You'll accurately maintain medical records, prescriptions, and controlled drug logs using our computer systems, and help train and mentor veterinary assistants and new teammates.
• Support Anesthesia and Patient Monitoring (in select locations): You'll induce, maintain, and monitor patients under sedation and anesthesia, continuously assessing vital parameters in often medically fragile cardiac patients and escalating concerns to the cardiologist promptly.

What You'll Bring to the Team

• Graduate of an AVMA-accredited Veterinary Technician program.
• A current state veterinary technician license in good standing.
• Experience in cardiology, internal medicine, or a specialty/referral environment is a plus.
