    Senior Operations Manager job 22 miles from Wheaton

    About the Company We're a startup and a roll-up focused on the chiropractic space. Our mission is to empower chiropractors by enabling their practices-so doctors can focus on being doctors, while we take care of the rest. We operate with a strong service mindset, and our success depends on flexibility, the ability to lead through integration, and a knack for working with a wide range of personalities. Empowering Chiropractors, one practice at a time. About the Job We are seeking a hands-on, action-oriented Director of Clinical Operations to serve as the operational right hand to our CEO. This person will bring order to complexity, structure to growth, and a high level of execution to the day-to-day realities of running and integrating multiple brick-and-mortar clinics. In this role, you'll lead the operational engine behind our outpatient care delivery, overseeing clinic directors, system integrations, and revenue cycle functions. You'll operate with both autonomy and urgency, stepping in to solve problems in real time, while building the foundational systems that allow our team to scale sustainably. This is not a desk job-we're looking for someone who thrives in real-world environments, has a bias for action, and knows how to get things done without waiting for perfect conditions. What You'll Do Be the operational glue. You'll partner directly with our CEO to own and optimize day-to-day clinic operations-solving for staffing, systems, and execution with limited hand-holding. Lead integration efforts. With new clinics joining the fold, you'll drive the unification of disparate systems across payroll, billing, and scheduling-bringing clarity and consistency to chaos. Drive clinical and financial performance.

You'll have direct oversight of our clinic directors and serve as their primary partner, coach, and accountability driver. You'll also work closely with our providers to ensure alignment between operations and care delivery. Travel with purpose. If you're based in the greater Chicago area, you'll travel a few days each month. If you're located elsewhere in the Upper Midwest, expect one week of travel per month. What You'll Need We believe great operators come from all walks of life-but the most successful candidates for this role will likely share these traits and experiences: You've led operations for an outpatient, multi-site, brick-and-mortar healthcare business. Chiropractic experience is a plus but not required. You've successfully managed cross-functional teams in high-growth environments and have experience building structure in messy or ambiguous contexts. Compensation & Logistics Location: Hybrid (Chicago area preferred; candidates in the Upper Midwest encouraged to apply) Start Date: ASAP Reports To: CEO If you're ready to take ownership, move fast, and help build something meaningful from the ground up-we want to hear from you. The salary range for this role is $75K-100K, depending on qualifications and experience.
