About The Position

Williamsburg Animal Clinic is looking for a warm, personable, and customer-focused Client Service Representative to join our team in Brooklyn, NY. Our CSRs are so much more than receptionists. They are often the first and last interaction our clients have with our hospital and play an incredibly important role in creating a welcoming experience for both our clients and their pets. We are looking for someone who genuinely enjoys working with people, communicates well, can stay organized in a busy environment, and wants to be part of a collaborative veterinary team. This position will initially be part-time with the potential opportunity to transition to full-time by the end of the year. Once full-time, the anticipated schedule will be approximately 4–5 days per week, with alternating Saturdays required. Williamsburg Animal Clinic is a full-service companion and exotic animal practice located in Brooklyn, NY. Our multi-doctor team is supported by an experienced group of veterinary professionals who are passionate about providing high-quality medicine and creating a positive experience for our clients and patients. Because we serve a diverse Brooklyn community with a large Spanish-speaking clientele, bilingual English/Spanish candidates are strongly preferred. The ability to communicate comfortably with our Spanish-speaking clients would be incredibly valuable to our team and the families we serve. Previous veterinary CSR or reception experience is preferred for this position.
