Job description

Ophthalmology Practice Manager / Administrator

East Florida Eye Institute (EFEI) is a physician‑led, independent ophthalmology practice seeking an experienced Practice Manager / Administrator to oversee clinical operations, administrative systems, and staff performance in a busy multi‑subspecialty environment.

This is not a private equity‐owned practice. Clinical care, staffing decisions, and operational priorities are directed by physicians with a long‑term commitment to quality, stability, and patient‑centered care.

This role requires a hands‑on leader comfortable with clinical oversight, daily problem‑solving, staff accountability, and operational decision‑making. Experience with Nextech EMR is helpful. The position also includes involvement in special projects, including the administrative coordination of a national ophthalmology conference in Snowmass, Colorado.

This is an on‑site position in Stuart, Florida; relocation or a long‑distance daily commute is not expected to be sustainable.

• Provide clinical operations oversight and support physician productivity
• Lead, supervise, and evaluate administrative and clinical support staff
• Ensure efficient scheduling, staffing, and workflow
• Monitor operational performance metrics and implement process improvements
• Oversee billing, collections, compliance, and vendor relationships
• Ensure adherence to HIPAA, OSHA, and ophthalmology regulations
• Serve as a central point of coordination between physicians, staff, and vendors
• Assist with planning and logistics for a national ophthalmology conference
• Be able to make minor web site edits

Qualifications

• 5+ years of healthcare management experience (ophthalmology strongly preferred)
• Prior clinical operations oversight in a medical practice
• Strong leadership, organization, and decision‑making skills
• Excellent communication and interpersonal abilities

Schedule & Commitment

• Full‑time, salaried leadership position
• Typical workweek averages 45–50+ hours, with flexibility based on operational needs
• Competitive salary commensurate with experience
• 401(k)
• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• Paid time off and paid holidays
• Life and disability insurance
