• Identify operational challenges and implement practical solutions.
• Improve patient experience and team performance through effective leadership and communication.
• Ensure compliance with all applicable dental regulations and office policies.
• Work closely with ownership on growth initiatives, future acquisitions, and expansion opportunities.

Qualifications

• Minimum of 3 years of dental management experience.
• Experience managing multiple dental practices is strongly preferred.
• Strong understanding of dental practice operations, scheduling, insurance verification, treatment presentation, collections, and patient communication.
• Experience managing front desk teams and office managers.
• Proven experience developing systems, processes, and accountability measures.
• Experience overseeing or participating in dental marketing initiatives.
• Strong leadership and team-building skills.
• Exceptional organizational and project management abilities.
• Ability to prioritize, multitask, and execute in a fast-paced environment.

What Success Looks Like

The successful candidate will help build a scalable operational foundation for a growing dental organization. They will improve efficiency, strengthen team performance, increase accountability, support new patient growth, and help create systems that can be successfully implemented across multiple locations.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Dental Office Manager, Multi-Site Manager, or Operations Leader who is looking to take the next step in their career and have a meaningful impact on a growing dental group.
