Greenville County Animal Care & Control is looking for a reliable and compassionate individual to provide part-time, temporary support to our Communications Specialist Team. This is a unique opportunity to step into a meaningful role that helps ensure the safety and well-being of pets and people across our community-while gaining firsthand experience in animal services and public safety communications. In this role, you'll assist with answering phones, logging reports, and providing accurate, courteous information to residents who reach out with animal-related concerns. From lost pets to ordinance questions to emergency support, your work will help maintain smooth operations and allow for a seamless transition as we onboard and train new team members. You'll be part of a fast-paced, service-focused environment where every call and message matters. The ability to remain calm, empathetic, and clear when helping people through emotional or urgent situations is essential. You'll work closely with our full-time Communication Specialist to learn dispatch procedures, respond to inquiries, and connect citizens with the right resources-ensuring continuity of service and strong community support. To thrive in this role, you'll need excellent multitasking skills, strong verbal communication, and basic proficiency with tools like Microsoft Excel, multi-line phone systems, and dispatch-related software. Familiarity with GIS, AS400/CAD systems, or 10-codes is a plus, and Spanish fluency is highly preferred. A high school diploma or equivalent is required. While previous experience in dispatch, customer service, or animal-related fields is helpful, we're most interested in candidates who are dependable, eager to learn, and passionate about serving the community. If you're looking for a way to make an impact, build valuable skills, and support a mission that matters-this is a great place to start.
