Regional Transitions Manager of Operations - Remote with Travel
Company Description
Alliance Animal Health is a fast-growing, private equity backed Veterinarian Service Organization that operates as a majority owner and business partner to many veterinarian practices across the US. Our goal is to make it easier for our practices at every step by providing world-class business solutions like talent acquisition, marketing, human resources, finance, and operations, so that they can focus their energy on providing incredible care for animals. In fact, our Core Values are (quite literally) written with PETS in mind: Passion, Engagement, Trust and Service.
We want our doctor partners to choose what's best for their practice because they are the experts in medicine, while we customize the support, the co-ownership approach, and business solutions based on their goals. We pride ourselves on maintaining a culture of open communication and collaboration to deliver innovative solutions to advance today’s veterinary environment - without disrupting the medical autonomy and what makes each of our hospitals unique.
Job Description
Help build the future of veterinary medicine.

If you thrive in fast-paced environments, enjoy building teams from the ground up, and have a passion for veterinary operations, leadership development, and growth, we would love to speak with you.
About The Role
As a Regional Transition Manager, you will serve as the operational quarterback for newly opened and transitioning hospitals. You will work alongside Practice Managers, Medical Directors, Regional Leaders, and Central Support teams to ensure hospitals are equipped with the tools, processes, and leadership capabilities necessary to thrive.
This position reports directly to the Regional Vice President, Specialty, Emergency & Urgent Care and plays a key role in supporting Alliance Animal Health's continued expansion and operational excellence initiatives.
