Job Description The Organization: Who is Emancipet? More than a career, it’s a movement. Emancipet, the leading non-profit veterinary care provider in the United States, is on a mission to make veterinary care affordable and accessible for everyone. For the past 25 years, we’ve been building a national network of low-cost veterinary clinics that provide low-cost, high-quality, and compassionate care in underserved communities. Our clinics have the power to transform communities into places where no one has to forego veterinary care for their pets because the cost is out of reach. You are invited to join the movement! We are dedicated to building and supporting a diverse workforce. Emancipet is committed to applying a social justice lens to our work by evaluating and ensuring that our systems, policies, practices, language, and programs create equitable access, opportunities, engagement, and inclusivity for all people, and people from historically marginalized groups in particular. We strive to live by our values and be an organization where the culture created by our diverse staff and board advances our mission and vision, and supports organizational excellence and sustainability. The Department: Who is Finance and Administration? It’s not just what we do, but how we do it that makes the difference. Emancipet’s Finance and Administration Department is made up of three teams—Finance and Accounting; Research, Data, and Analytics (RDA); and Information Technology (IT). Together, we ensure the organization has the financial strength, data-driven insights, and technological support needed to advance our mission. We support Emancipet in achieving its three bottom lines—Quality Medicine, Transformative Service, and Financial Sustainability—by providing timely, approachable access to data and information. Some of us live and breathe data integrity, analysis, and reporting to support internal decision-making. Others focus on optimizing financial systems, ensuring compliance, and managing resources to sustain and grow our impact. All of us work together to build strong financial and operational foundations that enable accessible, affordable veterinary care for all. The Information Systems Manager reports to the Chief Finance and Data Officer (CFDO) and serves as the "right hand" for all technological initiatives. In this role, you will hire, lead, and oversee a geographically distributed team of regional Technology Support Specialists. The Opportunity: Tell me more about the Information Systems Manager position At Emancipet, we serve over 90,000 families a year across 10+ locations . Every few minutes a veterinary team spends fighting with slow equipment or broken integrations is one less patient we’re able to see that day. We believe technology should be an invisible engine—a powerful, silent force that drives our mission forward without getting in the way of creating transformative experiences for our clients and staff. We are seeking an Information Systems Manager who recognizes that while software tools are temporary, the integrity of our data is the bedrock of our ability to deliver and grow our impact. This is a role for a systems thinker who is comfortable oscillating from high-level strategy to the granularity of user permissions and technical troubleshooting. You will spend your time co-developing a multi-year roadmap that prioritizes long-term scalability while simultaneously building and working alongside a distributed team of specialists to support our clinic teams and the shared services staff that support them behind the scenes. You aren’t just troubleshooting devices and implementing software; you are architecting a sustainable ecosystem where core platforms talk to one another seamlessly, ensuring our data remains actionable as we scale from Texas to Pennsylvania. You will thrive here if you are a process-oriented builder who values structural integrity and finds as much purpose in resolving an urgent clinic hardware issue as you do in building "backbone" infrastructure. You are motivated by the knowledge that a stable, secure, and automated technical foundation is the critical next piece to help Emancipet expand access to veterinary care for families across the country. In this position, you will be responsible for the following: Systems Operations, Integrations & Execution (40%) * Lead organizational change management for all new technology rollouts, focusing on high-quality training, clear communication, and sustainable user adoption across the organization. * Architect integrations and automated data flows between core platforms including PIMS, CRM, HRIS, ERP, and Data Viz tools to ensure the “tools talk” effectively. * Manage the relationship and service delivery of all technology partners and vendors, including the strategic oversight and coordination of our MSP. * Ensure operational uptime for critical infrastructure, including networking, hardware, and essential software access, serving as the senior point of escalation for complex technical issues. * Oversee the full IT asset lifecycle, including procurement, deployment, and the scheduling of critical security maintenance and patching for all devices. * Conduct regular site visits to audit local infrastructure and provide hands-on, in-person support. Team Leadership, Development & Remote Management (25%) * Recruit, train, and manage regional, part-time Technology Support Specialists to provide consistent, high-quality on-site and remote support for all staff. * Establish standardized KPIs, SLAs, and technical documentation to ensure service excellence across the geographically distributed, hybrid, hourly team. * Foster a culture of accountability, continuous improvement, and collaboration among the distributed team to prevent knowledge silos and ensure reliable regional coverage. * Mentor and coach team members by identifying development areas, supporting their professional growth while aligning their work with organizational needs. Technology Strategy & Data Architecture (25%) * Co-develop and maintain a multi-year technology roadmap with the CDFO that prioritizes long-term data integrity and scalability over short-term software features. * Lead comprehensive technology audit to identify, streamline, or decommission redundant systems and reduce technical debt. * Lead the technical evaluation and selection of enterprise-level tools, ensuring they are scalable, secure, and integrate with existing data sets. * Partner with the RDA team to build a stable data foundation that remains consistent and actionable even as specific software tools are replaced. * Advocate for "data longevity," ensuring organizational data is captured and preserved through every system transition, while maintaining compliance with veterinary medical record-keeping requirements. * Identify and prioritize automation opportunities within departmental workflows to reduce manual tasks and improve organizational efficiency. Governance, Security & Process Integrity (10%) * Co-develop and implement security policies, disaster recovery plans, and business continuity strategies to protect organizational data. * Develop and manage IT operational and capital expenditure budgets, prioritizing investments based on strategic impact and ROI. * Conduct regular audits of systems and licensing to optimize costs and eliminate insecure or redundant technologies. What You Bring (and We Know No One Has It All!) * Mission-driven and aligned with Emancipet’s values of compassionate service, excellence, teaching & learning, and optimism. * 5+ years of progressive experience in IT Operations, Information Systems, Technology Management, or related technical field. * 2+ years experience in a people-managment role; experience leading hourly, hybrid/remote, or geographically distributed teams in a hands-on environment is a Plus. * A "systems thinking" mindset, with a strong understanding of data architecture and how disparate tools connect (APIs, ETL, Integrations) to ensure long-term data integrity. * A “roll-up-your-sleeves” mindset, with a willingness to step in to troubleshoot or execute technical tasks when necessary to ensure uninterrupted clinic operations. * Experience managing technology in high-volume, multi-site environments (clinical, retail, or hospitality) where equipment uptime directly impacts the ability to serve clients. * Strong technical understanding of modern IT infrastructure, including Microsoft 365/Azure environments, networking fundamentals, and Mobile Device Management. * Knowledge of SaaS management and security best practices, including firewalls, endpoint protection, and identity management. * Strong contract negotiation and vendor management experience, including managing MSPs and external contractors. * Demonstrated success in leading non-technical staff through system audits, major technology transitions, or large-scale implementations from start to finish. * Ability to manage a multi-year strategic roadmap while simultaneously overseeing the daily lifecycle of hardware procurement, security maintenance, and asset management. * Exceptional ability to translate complex technical concepts into actionable insights for leadership and "people-first" workflows for clinical staff. * Experience with budget management, optimizing systems to increase transparency, and strengthening internal controls. You Don’t Have to Check Every Box! We recognize that candidates bring diverse skills and experiences, and you may be a great fit even if you don’t check every box.
