Multi-site leadership. Big energy. Zero fear of dashboards. We’re looking for a Regional Operations Leader ideally based in the Columbus area who knows how to run a region without turning into a hall monitor with a KPI obsession.

This role is for a leader who can walk into a practice, spot the bottleneck, support the people, tighten the operation, and leave things better than they found them. You’ll be the bridge between strategy and real-life execution. Which means yes, you need to understand numbers. But also humans. But also operations.
