Veterinary Pharmaceutical Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Austin Veterinary Emergency & Specialty Center (AVES) is seeking a passionate Generalist with clinical research experience or a strong passion to build competency in clinical research to join our newly established Clinical Study Center in Austin, TX. We prefer candidates who are board-certified (DABVP), currently pursuing certification, or interested in pursuing it in the future; we also welcome applications from Generalists with strong research backgrounds or interests who do not hold a DABVP. This unique role is ideal for a well-rounded clinician who enjoys variety in their caseload, is eager to contribute to advancing veterinary medicine, and values evidence-based practice.

As part of a small, collaborative team, you will:

• Partner with a board-certified Medical Oncologist and a dedicated support staff to conduct sponsored clinical research trials, including Good Clinical Practice (GCP) studies, proof-of-concept investigations, and industry-sponsored projects.
• Work with leading veterinary pharmaceutical, pet food, medical device, and diagnostic companies to help shape the future of veterinary medicine.
• Provide high-quality patient care while giving clients access to fully funded treatment options through research studies, reducing or eliminating financial barriers for eligible patients.
• Manage a diverse caseload that spans beyond traditional GP work-including chronic disease, pain management, and other emerging areas of research.
• Benefit from a structured research framework where projects are provided, allowing you to focus on clinical execution, patient care, and data collection (rather than grant writing).
• Have protected time for data entry and research coordination, ensuring compliance with protocols and high‑quality documentation.

This role is ideal for:

• Experienced veterinarians seeking to broaden their impact beyond day-to-day practice by engaging in clinical research that directly advances veterinary medicine.
• Early-career veterinarians with a background or strong interest in research who want to develop new skills and grow within a supportive, structured research environment.
• Clinicians who value variety, enjoy managing diverse cases, and are curious about emerging treatments and approaches that extend beyond traditional general practice.
• Veterinarians who are passionate about evidence-based medicine and want to contribute meaningfully to studies that improve patient outcomes and expand access to care.

Whether you're an experienced practitioner ready to grow your influence or a newer veterinarian eager to explore a career that combines clinical care with scientific discovery, this role offers a unique opportunity to do both.

• Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package.
• A collaborative, multi-specialty hospital environment including 24/7 Emergency & Critical Care, Internal Medicine, Anesthesiology, Surgery, Oncology, Neurology, and Ultrasound. Cardiology is provided daily by CVCA Cardiac Care for Pets. Radiation Oncology and Rehabilitation & Acupuncture services will be added in Fall 2025.
• A supportive team of research coordinators and technicians to assist with trial execution.
• Opportunities to work directly with top-tier industry partners on groundbreaking projects.
• Mentorship and collaboration with experienced specialists who are passionate about clinical research.

Austin is a diverse, vibrant city with endless cultural, culinary, and outdoor opportunities. From world‑class music and arts to outdoor adventures and family‑friendly neighborhoods, it's an ideal place to live and work.

Ethos Veterinary Health, part of the NVA Group, is where you come to practice world‑class medicine, and help shape what veterinary care becomes next.

Across our network of 140 specialty and emergency hospitals, science moves forward, standards are elevated, and innovation is put into practice every day. You'll work alongside respected veterinary leaders in academic‑caliber hospitals designed for learning, teaching, and discovery.

Here, mentorship is a two‑way street. You'll share your expertise, learn from others, and continue to grow, clinically, professionally, and personally.

At Ethos, you inspire hope, deliver exceptional care, and pursue veterinary medicine at its highest level, together.
