The Role Our Resource Center Plays
Our Resource Center is the glue to the entire Emancipet operation. They are the team on the front lines, helping our clients day in and day out. If you can’t tell, they are rockstars in our organization.
Our Resource Center Specialists work in a (fun!) call center answering calls, emails and chats for all our clinics and communities – responding to a variety of questions, booking appointments, ensuring our pets receive care, and serving as a general resource for people to help their pets! It’s completely normal to have cats and dogs run by your desk, so when we say fun… we mean it!
If you’re interested in becoming an Emancipet Resource Center Specialist, please note that all interested applicants must first RSVP to attend one of our Info Sessions.
Part Time Booking Specialists Needed!
Who We Need
Emancipet’s Resource Center (RC) is the beating heart of our day-to-day operations. Resource Center Agents schedule appointments, fulfill records requests, field inquiries, and serve as the first point of contact for hundreds of thousands of clients and prospective clients each year. Working from our call center in Austin, TX (though remotely until further notice), our Resource Center Booking Specialists will work as part of the RC team to achieve Emancipet’s bottom lines of high-quality medical care, transformative experiences, and sustainable finance. Specialists will fulfill client record requests and schedule/reschedule appointments while delivering exceptional customer service in each and every interaction.
