Remote Medical Receptionist (Remote - U.S. Hours)

Location: Remote — work from anywhere in South Africa

Hours: 4pm – 12am SAST or 7pm – 3am SAST (U.S. business hours) — your mornings and early afternoons are completely free. No weekends.

The Role

You'll be the dedicated remote front-desk for one U.S. veterinary clinic — their care coordinator, their client's first voice, part of their team every day. This is real veterinary work, done from home.

What You'll Be Doing

• Client Communication: Answer and initiate calls, texts, chats, and emails from pet parents with empathy and clarity.
• Appointment Scheduling: Book, reschedule, and confirm visits.
• Care Navigation: Help pet parents understand what comes next — triage inquiries, explain services, coordinate follow-ups.

Requirements

Who We're Looking For

• Veterinary experience: At least 1 year of experience in a veterinary clinic or hospital — front desk, reception, practice administration, or client care, with clinic names and employment dates shown in your CV work history.
• Scheduling experience: You've handled appointment booking, rescheduling, and confirmations in a veterinary clinic or hospital.
• Spoken English: You'll be on live calls with American pet owners all day. Fluent, professional English is essential — and we assess it based on evidence, not self-rating, including prior phone-based roles serving English-speaking clients and fluent, well-written free-text application answers.
• Tech-comfortable: Hands-on with veterinary practice management software — you can name the systems you've used and describe your day-to-day work in them. Experience with VoIP tools is a plus.
• Team-oriented: Experience coordinating with veterinarians and clinic teams to keep communication and follow-up moving.
• Remote-ready: You can describe a specific remote-work setup: fibre or fixed internet of at least 25 Mbps, backup power that lets you work through load shedding (inverter, UPS, or generator), and a quiet dedicated space for taking calls.
• Fixed-shift availability: You can work the fixed shift you're assigned — either 4pm–12am SAST or 7pm–3am SAST, Monday to Friday — on a permanent, long-term basis. We assess this based on the evidence in your CV, including your current commitments and any prior sustained evening or night shift work.
