About The Position

In 2014, VEG was born with a mission to help people and their pets when they need it most. This meant challenging the status quo and fixing everything that was wrong with the ER experience. Since then, we’ve expanded rapidly, with hospitals nationwide open 24/7, 365 days a year, and created a better emergency experience—not only for people and their pets, but also for everyone who works here—our VEGgies! At VEG we find a way to say yes to the career you want in veterinary emergency medicine. This means transforming how ER works, from our open-concept hospitals, where you can handle emergency cases of every kind (even exotics!) to our immersive, customer-focused experience, which helps us give people and their pets the care they deserve. This also means saying yes to creating the greatest experience possible for our VEGgies. Yes to working in an environment where you can find your place and feel valued for the amazing work you do. Yes to having unparalleled opportunities for learning and mentorship so you can grow where you want to go in your career. And yes to making an impact here in ways you never thought possible. VEG is a 2025 and 2026 certified Great Place to Work®. As a Customer Experience Coordinator, your job is to define the customer’s experience through service, focus, and participation—so you are passionate about perfecting the experience before, during, and after their time at VEG. Outgoing and personable, with each customer, you conduct yourself professionally in both demeanor and presence. You find ways to say YES and put pets and customers experience above all else. In this role, you’ll have the opportunity to grow where you want to go, building valuable experience and paving the way for your career to take unexpected and rewarding directions.
