What does an animal consultant do when working remotely?

An Animal Consultant working remotely provides expert advice and guidance on animal behavior, care, welfare, and management via virtual means such as video calls, emails, or phone consultations. They may work with pet owners, zoos, farms, or animal-related businesses to solve issues related to animal training, health, and environment. Their responsibilities often include assessing animal needs, developing care plans, and educating clients, all while working from a remote location rather than in-person. This allows them to serve clients over a wide geographic area and offer flexible support.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an animal consultant remote?

To thrive as a remote Animal Consultant, you need a strong background in animal science, behavior, or veterinary studies, often supported by relevant degrees or certifications. Familiarity with virtual consultation platforms, case management software, and industry-specific databases is typically required. Excellent communication, problem-solving, and self-motivation are essential soft skills for building client trust and working independently. These skills ensure effective remote guidance, accurate assessments, and professional client relationships in a virtual environment.

What are some common challenges faced by remote animal consultants, and how can they be effectively addressed?

Remote Animal Consultants often face challenges such as building rapport with clients without in-person interactions, accurately assessing animal behavior through virtual means, and coordinating with local veterinarians or trainers. To address these, consultants can leverage video conferencing tools for thorough observations, maintain clear and consistent communication, and develop detailed guidelines for clients to follow at home. Staying updated on digital resources and collaborating closely with on-site professionals also helps ensure effective support for both animals and their owners.

Here, you'll be part of a company that values and champions new ways of thinking, work with dynamic individuals, and acquire new skills and experiences that will propel your career to new heights.
Making animals' lives better makes life better - join our team today!
Your Role: Consulting Veterinarian - Strategic Partnerships
The Consulting Veterinarian (CV) for Strategic Partnerships serves as the companion animal veterinary technical anchor for Elanco's corporate/distribution account managers within the US Pet Health Business Unit. This role focuses on educating industry partners on Elanco's parasiticides, vaccines, and dermatologic portfolio, facilitating the adoption of Elanco's Pet Health products within strategic partner hospitals. The SP CV develops and implements Elanco's veterinary medical strategy with key customers, acting as the primary medical/technical contact and coordinating broader RCV team activities.
Your Responsibilities:
  • Serve as the primary medical point of contact for Corporate/Strategic partners; provide technical support to Strategic Partnership account managers; cultivate relationships and influence formulary approval/adoption.
  • Communicate product features, benefits, and disease-state information via in-person, remote, and recorded presentations; plan, staff, and organize RCV presentations and field support at partner regional/sponsored meetings.
  • Provide technical support for new and existing product launches; develop and implement medical/positioning strategies to meet partnership goals.
  • Actively participate in the Strategic Account Management (SAM) process; understand business, contracts, and strategic principles; assist account managers in relationship building and deliver product technical training as needed.
  • Travel regularly (~60%, higher during launches) to partner regional meetings, corporate offices, and hospitals to execute medical presentations and stakeholder engagement.

What You Need to Succeed (minimum qualifications):
  • Graduate of an AVMA (American Veterinary Medical Association) accredited veterinary program with corresponding veterinary degree. Licensed to practice veterinary medicine in the USA.
  • 5 years of experience as a practicing veterinarian in companion animal or mixed animal practice (companion animal focus). Consideration may also be given for experience in comparable industry roles.
  • Experienced in interactions with corporate veterinary medicine (veterinarians and clinics).

What will give you a competitive edge (preferred qualifications):
  • Companion-animal market and clinical/product expertise.
  • Strategic account partnership and business acumen (build relationships in corporate veterinary medicine; translate technical info to Strategic Account business needs; SAM experience; practice ownership/management and business training are pluses).
  • Exceptional communication and presentation skills (written, verbal, interpersonal) to influence diverse stakeholders.
  • Strong planning and cross-functional execution (prioritize and deliver across multiple business functions).
  • Field-based autonomy and sound judgment (operate with minimal supervision; make decisions amid uncertainty and ambiguity).

Additional Information:
  • Location: Remote, all US geographies considered
  • Must have a valid US driver's license.
  • Travel: > 60%

  • 8-week parental leave
  • 9 Employee Resource Groups
