Are you an experienced veterinary technician and natural leader who loves being in the middle of the action? Do you enjoy teaching advanced clinical skills, helping others grow, and being the person your team turns to when they need guidance?

At Animal Emergency & Specialty Center (AESC) of Knoxville, we're looking for a Veterinary Technician Director who brings together strong clinical expertise, a passion for mentorship, and the ability to keep a busy emergency and specialty hospital running smoothly.

You'll also serve as a trusted partner and right hand to our Hospital Administrator, helping manage technician operations, scheduling, team development, and the day-to-day challenges of a 24/7 hospital.

We're looking for someone who can lead with confidence, teach with patience, and isn't afraid to roll up their sleeves when the team needs them.

Salary: $60,000–$80,000 annually (based on experience and credentials)
At AESC Knoxville, veterinary technicians play a critical role in delivering advanced emergency and specialty care. We believe highly trained, credentialed technicians deserve opportunities for growth, leadership, and professional development.

As our Veterinary Nursing Director, you'll have the opportunity to:
  • Lead and mentor a talented team of Veterinary Technicians and Assistants

  • Develop technician training programs and career advancement pathways
  • Improve patient care standards and nursing protocols
