← Back to Careers You got into this field because you love animals and you wanted to make a difference. Somewhere along the way, you might have ended up feeling more like a production line worker than a skilled professional. Technician Careers

Be the Tech You
Wanted to Be

We think technicians are the backbone of veterinary medicine. We treat you that way.

Who We’re Looking For

The backbone of veterinary medicine deserves better.

01

Licensed / Credentialed Technicians

LVT, CVT, RVT—whatever your state calls it, you earned it. You put in the coursework, passed the exams, and built real clinical skills. We’re looking for techs who carry that credential and want to actually use it—not just hold a title while someone else makes all the calls.

02

Working Toward Licensure

Maybe you’re still in school. Maybe you’re studying for boards while working full-time. Either way, we see where you’re headed, and we want to help you get there. We support technicians on their credentialing journey because investing in your growth is investing in our patients.

03

Values-Aligned People

Credentials matter, but character matters more. We hire people who are team oriented, adaptable, consistent, honest, and ethical—people who show up for their colleagues on hard days and do the right thing even when nobody’s watching.

You're not just restraining animals. You're a

part of patient care.

What You Get

Built for Technicians

01

Respect for Your Skills

You trained for this. You know how to place catheters, run anesthesia, interpret lab work, and educate clients. At Great Lakes, you actually get to do those things—and you’re recognized as the skilled professional you are, not treated like an interchangeable pair of hands.

02

CE Support

Keep growing. Whether it’s a specialty certification, a conference you’ve had your eye on, or new skills you want to develop, we’ll help you get there. Your education didn’t end at graduation, and neither does our investment in you.

03

A Voice

Your observations matter. Your input on patient care matters. You’re part of the clinical team—not someone who carries out orders and stays quiet. When you see something, we expect you to say something. And when you do, people listen.

04

Competitive Pay

We value what you do and compensate accordingly. No vague promises about “competitive” pay that turns out to be average. We pay technicians what technicians are worth—because this profession has been undervalued for too long.
