Job description

Our orthodontic practice is committed to providing the best healthcare experience our patients are ever going to experience... anywhere. And we've assembled a highly-skilled, hard-working, and insanely charming bunch of badasses that make that happen every single day.

We are growing and looking for just the right person to be our next orthodontic clinical specialist. Our clinical specialists work one-on-one with our patients and are (obviously) working directly with their braces. To be successful, they must be comfortable working directly with the doctors, patients, and their families. Sound easy? Well, it isn't.

Here's what we're looking for:

• Outgoing, positive, and social person with a genuine love for helping others
• Someone who can accurately and gently perform complex procedures in a specific amount of time
• The ability to do the above while simultaneously making the patient feel comfortable, valued, and at ease (think high-end food service, with your gloved hands in someone's mouth. I know, weirdest. meal. ever.)
• Someone who shares the passion, vision, and core values of our practice
• Hard-working self-starter that doesn't need to be micro-managed (Yup, that's a record-setting number of hyphenated words in a sentence)
• Receptive to constantly learning new skills and adapting in a technologically advanced environment
• No-drama llama! No, for real.
• Doesn't mind traveling between locations

Here's what ISN'T required:

• Dental or orthodontic experience - Although there are times when this is helpful, there are just as many times that it isn't

Check out the benefits we offer:

• Medical insurance, paid 100% by us!
• Health Savings Account, with employer contribution
• Monthly wellness bonus
• 2 weeks paid vacation per year, increasing the longer you work with us
• Major holidays off with pay
• Retirement plan, also with employer contribution
