Practice Manager – Allied Dental Innaloo
$45–$52 per hour + Super (Based on Experience)
Full Time | Senior Leadership Role | Operational Ownership
Allied Dental is seeking an experienced and commercially minded Practice Manager to lead our Innaloo clinic.
This is not a traditional front-desk management role.
This is a business leadership position with real operational ownership.
We are looking for someone confident stepping into a complex environment, strengthening culture, improving performance, and taking accountability for the operational success of the practice.
If you understand the commercial side of healthcare, can translate financial data into action, and are comfortable leading both people and performance, this is an exceptional opportunity.
________________________________________
The Opportunity
As Practice Manager, you will:
• Take ownership of daily operations and overall practice performance
• Partner closely with the Principal Dentist and senior leadership
• Interpret financial performance and drive improvement strategies
• Strengthen team culture, accountability and communication
• Identify operational inefficiencies and implement solutions
• Lead performance conversations with clarity and confidence
• Operate with autonomy while remaining aligned to group strategy
This role suits someone who enjoys responsibility, structure and delivering measurable outcomes.

What Success Looks Like (First 90 Days)
Within your first three months, you will be expected to:
• Establish confident operational leadership presence
• Demonstrate understanding of key financial drivers
• Improve workflow consistency and team accountability
• Identify performance opportunities and begin implementing solutions
• Build trust with clinicians, support staff and stakeholders
• Provide clear performance insights and updates
You won’t be expected to know everything immediately — but you will be expected to take ownership quickly.

Many Practice Manager roles focus primarily on administration.
This position owns performance.
You will have genuine operational authority, financial visibility and the opportunity to influence practice direction.
The remuneration reflects the expectations and level of responsibility.
