To ensure that all animals in Sweden have the conditions to live the best possible life, there are the District Veterinarians. With readiness around the clock, clinics across the country, and unique knowledge of animal health, we contribute to healthier animals and a safer life. As district veterinarians, we work on behalf of individuals, businesses, and authorities. We offer community-supporting services for emergency animal care, infection control, and preventive measures for good animal health. Always with our feet on the ground and our hearts in the right place. The District Veterinarians are part of the Swedish Board of Agriculture.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

We are looking for a service-oriented receptionist for our clinic in Kalix who can strengthen our team by providing our customers with the best possible experience.

You will largely work in our reception and manage our store. This includes, among other things:

• welcome our customers and patients and handle payments.
• manage appointments and inquiries via phone.
• ensure that the clinic remains clean and fresh through daily cleaning, dishwashing, laundry, and restocking of supplies.
• assist and support veterinarians as needed.

QUALIFICATIONS

We are looking for someone who is passionate about service and has the ability to spread positive energy while giving a professional impression. It is important that you enjoy meeting people, are self-driven, and work in a structured and meticulous manner. You thrive in an environment where no two days are the same, and you are not afraid to pitch in where needed.

We expect that you:

• have good judgment, are flexible, and take initiative.
• have good collaboration skills and are also self-driven.
• are accustomed to interacting with customers and preferably have experience with phone communication.

For the position, the following is required:

• high school education
• driver's license (B)
• good knowledge of Swedish, both spoken and written.

Meritorious:

• experience in service occupations
• previous work in a reception
• good experience in cleaning and hygiene work within healthcare or similar.

Since we have veterinarians who do not speak Swedish and need extra support with record-keeping and translation, your English should be good.

We place great importance on personal suitability.

We care about our staff. Therefore, we offer all employees at District Veterinarians the opportunity to take advantage of various benefits. Some examples include 28-35 days of vacation depending on your age, salary exchange, wellness grants, and occupational health services. For you as a parent, we have good conditions to find a good balance between work and family life, including parental leave supplements and the opportunity to reduce your working hours until the child is twelve years old.
