DESCRIPTION OF DUTIES/ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS
Who we are:
BARC Animal Shelter and Adoptions is Houston’s municipal animal shelter and adoption center. BARC recently underwent a massive transformation; the shelter went from a place where animals were never given a second chance to a shelter whose mission is to get as many animals into forever homes as possible. Every single member of BARC’s staff is focused on finding a forever family for the animals that come into the shelter.
What’s the position about?
This position is a rescue coordinator position and will report to BARC’s outreach supervisor. The foster/rescue coordinator will play an important role at BARC by building and maintaining relationships with rescue groups. This will provide much needed space in the kennel for other animals to come in.
Currently, we work with about 200 rescue groups and hundreds of fosters. Our team has the potential to get more animals into temporary or forever homes than ever, and every new member of our team contributes to the growth and expansion of BARC’s programs.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
Rescue Coordinator

• Work in conjunction with other outreach Foster/Rescue Coordinators to plan the dates and times of rescue organization transfers and foster communications/transactions.
• Communicate with foster parents and rescue organizations to ensure smooth transactions.
• Recruit and maintain relationships with both current and prospective animal fosters and rescue organizations, and regularly communicate via phone and email.
• Learn and understand BARC’s animal inventory software to best serve fosters and rescue organizations.
• Uphold BARC’s dedication to legendary customer service by setting BARC apart from other local animal shelter and adoption agencies. A key part of this is developing and maintaining strong connections with fosters and rescue organizations.
• Understand BARC’s mission and goals and ensure every customer leaves with a positive impression of BARC.
• Responsible for helping transport animals to spay/neuter partners.
• Assist in other outreach areas as necessary.
• Positively and proactively help solve problems for fosters and rescue organizations and balance multiple individuals and organizations in a fast-paced environment.
• Demonstrate a high degree of integrity and enforce/uphold all BARC policies.
