ER Clinical Recruiter

You have a real network in the veterinary specialty ER space, and you use it. You hear “no” and think, not yet. You move fast, take ownership, and get results without needing a playbook.

Then keep reading.

Arista Advanced Pet Care is building something different in veterinary medicine:

Arista is a clinician-owned, shared-ownership, multi-specialty ER model. Each hospital is owned and operated by a core group of doctors who work on the floor. Decisions stay local and practical. Medicine comes first. People matter.

We’re looking for a relationship-driven Emergency Clinician Recruiter to help us find our people, early career and seasoned ER doctors, who want to work in happy hospitals with systems that support sustainable careers.

This is not a post-and-pray recruiting job. This is relationship work.

You will:

• →Build and own a pipeline of experienced emergency clinicians for current and future Arista hospitals

• →Leverage your existing veterinary network (and build new ones) to find ER doctors who may not be actively job-hunting

• →Have real, honest conversations about what clinicians actually want

• →Partner closely with hospital leadership and clinician owners to understand culture, team dynamics, and clinical needs

• →Guide candidates through a high-touch hiring process that treats them like a friend, not a commodity

• →Represent Arista at conferences, on campuses, and in hospitals as a true brand ambassador

You’ll also play a key role in our early-career and pipeline efforts, including:

• →Building relationships with vet schools, internships, and residencies

• →Participating in panels, lunch-and-learns, externship programs, and networking events

• →Helping students and trainees understand what working in a locally owned hospital looks and feels like 

• 15–20 emergency clinicians placed per year

• A warm, active pipeline of ER doctors for current and future hospital openings

• Strong visibility and reputation for Arista across ER, internship, and residency communities

• Clinicians who say, “That was the most unique recruiting experience I’ve had.”

• You’ve worked in ER and/or specialty medicine

• You know the culture, the pressures, and the personalities

• You’re comfortable speaking to students, interns, residents, and senior clinicians

• You love mentorship, connection, and big-picture thinking about the profession

• You’ve spent 5+ years recruiting in the veterinary ER/specialty world

• You know how nuanced clinician hiring is and why trust matters

• You’ve successfully managed complex, multi-stakeholder searches

• You have credibility and genuine relationships in the veterinary space

• You’re an excellent communicator; warm, direct, and authentic

• You’re highly organized and comfortable juggling multiple searches and relationships

• You’re resourceful, persistent, and not afraid to open new doors

• You believe veterinary medicine deserves better systems and better careers

• You’re excited about reconnecting clinicians with healthy, innovative hospitals 

• Location: Flexible / Remote

• Travel: ~50% (conferences, campus visits, hospital visits, Home Office time)

• Reports to: Senior Director of Veterinary Recruiting

• Recruiting isn’t a support function at Arista. It’s foundational.

• The people we bring in shape our hospitals and our culture, which is why we’re thoughtful about every hire.

• If you want to help rebuild veterinary medicine from the inside out, one relationship at a time, we’d love to talk.
