Dental Office Manager.
Dental Experience Required.
Dental Nook is seeking an experienced Dental Office Manager to lead the daily operations of our practice. We are looking for a confident, organized leader who can create a positive work environment while holding the team accountable to clearly defined responsibilities, systems, and checklists.
This is a hands-on leadership position—not simply an administrative role. The right candidate will take ownership, solve problems proactively, follow through on commitments, and turn plans into action.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead and support the front- and back-office teams.
- Manage employee and patient schedules to keep the practice running efficiently.
- Recruit, hire, onboard, train, and coach team members.
- Set clear expectations and hold employees accountable to their job duties, checklists, and performance standards.
- Oversee treatment coordination, financial arrangements, and patient follow-up.
- Help patients understand recommended treatment, insurance estimates, payment options, and scheduling.
- Monitor collections, outstanding balances, schedule effectiveness, and other key practice metrics.
- Address patient concerns professionally and work toward appropriate solutions.
- Conduct productive team meetings and maintain clear communication throughout the practice.
- Encourage a fun, supportive, and positive workplace without sacrificing accountability.
- Maintain compliance with HIPAA, OSHA, and established office policies.
- Identify operational problems and implement practical solutions.
- Provide consistently excellent patient service.
Required Qualifications:
- Previous dental office experience is required.
- Dental management or leadership experience is strongly preferred.
- Strong knowledge of dental terminology, insurance, scheduling, and treatment coordination.
- Experience with Open Dental practice-management software is strongly preferred.
- Excellent leadership, organization, communication, and problem-solving skills.
- Ability to have direct, respectful accountability conversations.
- Strong attention to detail and consistent follow-through.
- Comfortable discussing treatment costs and collecting patient payments.
- Able to manage competing priorities in a busy dental practice.
- Proactive, dependable, and personally accountable.
The Right Person for This Role:
Our ideal Office Manager is a strong implementer who does not wait to be reminded. You take ownership, communicate clearly, address problems directly, and make sure agreed-upon systems are followed. You can balance compassion with accountability and help create a practice where patients feel cared for and team members know exactly what is expected of them.
Schedule: Monday - Thursday.
Compensation: 27-31 per hour, depending on experience.
Benefits: Sick pay, 401k matching, dental treatment for you and family after 90 days.
Location: 3113 W Colorado Ave.
If you have meaningful dental experience and are ready to lead with positivity, consistency, and accountability, we would like to hear from you.
