NEW Chief of Veterinary Services **Hiring Bonus Available**

The Chief Veterinarian serves as the senior clinical leader for a complex, high-volume animal welfare system spanning Pima County’s 9,200 square miles. This role directs the full veterinary operation within an open-admissions shelter environment, where compassionate, high-quality care must be delivered across a wide spectrum of medical and behavioral conditions.

Reporting to executive leadership, the Chief Veterinarian provides oversight and mentorship to a team of staff veterinarians, while partnering closely with a robust clinic support structure that includes a clinic operations manager, operations coordinator, surgery and triage supervisors, and veterinary technical staff. Together, this team supports an annual intake of approximately 19,000 animals, in addition to managing the medical care of roughly 1,200 animals in foster at any given time.

The veterinary program operates at significant scale and pace, performing an average of 40 spay/neuter surgeries daily while also responding to emergency intakes, including those generated by Animal Protection Services (APS). The Chief Veterinarian ensures clinical excellence, operational efficiency, and humane outcomes across all service areas, balancing population-level medicine with individualized care.

This position also plays a critical role in advancing animal welfare and public accountability, as APS impound cases frequently involve forensic medical evaluation and require expert veterinary testimony in court related to cruelty and neglect. The Chief Veterinarian must therefore bring not only strong clinical and leadership expertise, but also the ability to operate effectively at the intersection of medicine, law enforcement, and community service.

A hiring bonus and relocation assistance may be available to the selected candidate. The hiring bonus will be provided by Friends of PACC.

As a county shelter, this position is eligible for the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program AND Arizona Veterinary Loan Assistant Program to those who qualify.

This classification is in the unclassified service and is exempt from the Pima County Merit System Rules.
