Schedule

This is a full-time 1.0 FTE exempt position scheduled to work primarily Monday – Friday during daytime outpatient hours, with some early morning monitoring clinics as needed to support fertility treatment cycles
Occasional participation in a shared weekend call rotation with REI physicians, which is anticipated to be approximately once per month
Intermittent schedule adjustments to accommodate earlier start times for procedural or operating room support should be expected

Experience

Minimum of 2 years prior clinical experience in reproductive endocrinology and infertility and/or fertility treatment coordination strongly preferred. The ideal candidate will have experience counseling fertility patients, managing fertility treatment cycles, and performing office-based procedures such as fertility monitoring ultrasounds, intrauterine insemination (IUI), saline sonohysterography (SHG), mock embryo transfer, and endometrial biopsy.

Education and Licensure

Bachelor's degree required; master’s degree preferred.
Current (or eligible) licensure as an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) from the VT State Board of Nursing or as a Physician Assistant from the VT State Board of Medical Practice.
