About The Role

Doctors&Co; is hiring a Practice Success Manager (Dental) to run the management side of its dental network and take it to the next stage of growth. You will lead the Practice Managers across our dental clinics, own clinic performance, grow patient flow, open new sites and keep dental strategy aligned with the Group.

Doctors&Co; is an Australian vertically integrated healthcare group operating general practice, dental, wellness and allied health clinics across NSW, VIC and QLD, backed by in-house property, management services and fitout teams. The Group employs 600+ people and 400+ clinicians today and is building toward 300+ clinic sites over the next decade. Dental is a core clinical vertical, with clinics offering general dentistry and extended pathways in implants, clear aligners and orthodontics, endodontics, oral surgery, cosmetic and restorative dentistry, periodontics, paediatric dentistry and sleep and TMJ.

This is a hands-on commercial leadership role, not a clinical one.

You will be judged on clinic results: patient numbers, chair utilisation, revenue and margin, team stability and new clinics opened on time.

Who we are looking for

Essential

- Five or more years managing multi-site dental or healthcare clinics, including direct responsibility for profit and loss




- A record of growing patient numbers and clinic revenue, not just maintaining them
- Experience hiring, leading and developing practice managers or site leaders across several locations
- Robust financial literacy: budgets, forecasts, clinic P&L; reviews and cost control

- Tertiary qualification in business, health management or a related field
- Experience building referral pathways between general practice and dental

How you work
- Commercial, numbers-led and comfortable being held to targets
- Hands-on: you fix problems in the clinic, not from a desk
- Direct and clear with people, and fair when performance falls short
- Organised enough to run many sites at once and calm when a clinic is in trouble
- Ambitious: you want to build a dental network, not just manage one

What we offer
- A senior role with real ownership of a growing dental network and a direct line to the Group executive
- Competitive base salary plus a performance incentive tied to clinic results and new clinics opened
- Vehicle allowance and travel costs covered
- A fast-growing group with new clinics, acquisitions and partnerships opening every year, and the career path that comes with that
