Job Description:

Job Description Job Description We're looking for a Practice Manager to own and oversee all non-clinical operations. As the practice grows, the owner is intentionally stepping out of day-to-day operations to focus on clinical leadership and vision. This role is central to making that possible. This is not an assistant role and not a support-only position. This role combines operational leadership with direct client interaction. You will be responsible for ensuring that the practice runs smoothly day to day, that systems are followed, and that clients have an excellent experience from their first point of contact onward. You will receive structured onboarding and training during the first 90 days, and be provided with written systems, clear expectations, and direct access to the owner for clarification. The goal of training is to prepare you for independent decision-making and ownership of responsibilities. After the initial training period, you are expected to manage your portfolio of responsibilities practically and reliably. The owner will remain available for legal, complex, or strategic decisions—but you will not be micromanaged, and you will not receive daily task lists.
