OVERVIEW:
Working at Shared Practices Group means being part of a dynamic work environment where
each one of our employees has the opportunity to make a difference. We love what we do, and
it shows.
Shared Practices Group (SPG) is one of the fastest-growing dental implant organizations in the
country, with over 40 practices across the U.S. focused on dentures and implant dentistry. Our
mission is simple: expand access to life-changing full-arch care so more patients can get the
smile, health, and confidence they deserve.
You’ll be joining an energetic, high-performing, and tight-knit team that truly lives the Team First
mindset. We take care of our practice teams so they can focus on what matters most—taking
exceptional care of our patients.
JOB SUMMARY:
The Startup Regional Manager at SPG is responsible for leading the successful launch of
every new practice. This role focuses on building a strong operational and cultural foundation
during the critical first 6–9 months of a practice’s life cycle before it is transitioned to a
permanent Regional Manager.
This is a high-impact, high-visibility role for a dynamic leader who thrives in fast-paced
environments. You’ll ensure that every new practice hits its operational milestones, builds a
cohesive team, and establishes best-in-class processes from day one. If you love building
something from the ground up and seeing it succeed, this role was made for you.
ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:
• Own the Launch – Oversee the operational launch of every new practice, ensuring full
readiness prior to opening day
• Partner with central departments (Finance, Marketing, Clinical) to coordinate build-out,
staffing, onboarding, and technology implementation
• Establish operational systems, standardized processes, and SPG playbooks from day
one at each new location
• Build the Team – Recruit, onboard, and coach Practice Operations Managers (POMs)
and Smile Consultants (SCs) for each start-up practice
• Foster a strong culture of accountability, performance, and team-first mentality from the
very beginning
• Drive Early Performance – Ensure new practices meet initial financial, operational, and
patient care targets during the ramp-up period
• Monitor and manage key performance indicators (KPIs) including collections per new
patient, close rate, show rate, and financing efficiency
• Be On the Ground – Conduct frequent site visits to train staff and verify compliance with
SPG operational standards
• Execute the Handoff – Ensure a seamless transition to the permanent Regional
Manager once the 6–9 month startup period concludes
KEY OUTCOMES ARE MEASURED BY:
• Timely and successful practice launches
• Collections per New Patient (NP)
• Smile Consultant Close Rates
• Arches Accepted per Practice
• Financing Efficiency
• Patient Show Rate
• Team retention during the start-up period
WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR:
The person we are looking for is a builder at heart. They thrive in the controlled chaos of
launching something new and find energy in turning a blank canvas into a high-performing
operation. They lead with urgency and empathy, knowing that a strong start sets the tone for
everything that follows. They are organized, decisive, and relentless in execution—because
they understand that the first 6–9 months of a practice’s life determine its trajectory.

building a world-class organization, and we’re looking for leaders who:

• Execute with discipline and follow through on every detail
• Lead with integrity and a team-first mindset
• Follow our core values
• Care deeply about building something that lasts

• 5+ years in multi-site operations, preferably in dental, healthcare, or start-up
environments
• Proven ability to lead start-up or launch initiatives successfully from the ground up
• Strong leadership, coaching, and team-building skills with a track record of developing
high-performing teams
• Ability to thrive in fast-paced, high-change environments with multiple priorities

• Highly organized with strong computer skills and the ability to manage competing
timelines
• Willingness to travel frequently for site visits and new practice launches
• Experience with Open Dental, Practice by Numbers (PBN), Monday.com, or similar
platforms is a plus
