This position involves physically visiting animal hospitals  (Windsor / Chatham / Sarnia, ON)  and educating hospital teams about the importance of medical insurance for dogs and cats, specifically Trupanion.

This person will need to research, resolve and quickly respond to questions and concerns as they arise from time to time with help from us and other Trupanion team members as needed. In addition, telephone and email appointment settings are also required.

With guidance from us, there is a requirement to develop and complete a call route that optimizes the above.

Completion of an informative and fun 1-week online training about Trupanion and its leading-edge role in the veterinary profession will also be required of the successful candidate.
