Clinical Leadership in a Growing Emergency & Specialty Hospital

Animal Emergency & Specialty Center of Knoxville (AESC Knoxville) is seeking an experienced, credentialed veterinary technician leader to join our leadership team as a Veterinary Nursing Director.

This is a unique opportunity for a passionate leader who thrives in Emergency & Critical Care medicine, enjoys mentoring and developing technicians, and wants to play a key role in shaping the future of a growing specialty hospital.

As our Veterinary Nursing Director, you will provide hands-on leadership and support for our veterinary technicians and assistants while working closely with hospital leadership and medical directors to strengthen training programs, improve workflow efficiency, elevate patient care standards, and build a culture of clinical excellence.

This is not a desk-only management role. We are looking for a leader who enjoys being on the hospital floor, collaborating alongside the team, supporting swing and overnight operations, and serving as a clinical resource during busy and critical cases.

Salary: $60,000 - $80,000 annually, based on experience and credentials
