About The Position

At Anytime Dental Group, exceptional patient care starts with supported, confident clinicians. As our network of clinics continues to grow, we’re looking for an experienced and passionate Associate Clinical Lead to help coach, mentor, and support the professional growth of our Associate Dentists across Ontario. This is an exciting opportunity for an accomplished dentist who loves dentistry and wants to make an impact beyond their own operatory. You’ll work closely with our Associate Dentists, helping them strengthen their clinical skills, treatment planning, patient communication, and confidence while promoting a collaborative culture of learning and clinical excellence. If you’re an experienced comprehensive dentist who finds fulfillment in helping other clinicians grow and succeed, this could be a natural next step in your career. The Associate Clinical Lead will serve as a trusted mentor, coach, and clinical resource for Associate Dentists throughout the Anytime Dental Group network. Reporting to and working closely with the Clinical Director for Anytime Dental Group, you’ll play an important role in supporting the clinical development and success of our Associate Dentists. Together, you’ll help strengthen clinical standards, identify development opportunities, and ensure our doctors have the mentorship, education, and support they need to continue growing in their careers. Working collaboratively with our doctors, clinic leaders, Operations, and Learning & Development teams, you’ll provide hands-on coaching and guidance that supports strong clinical decision-making, comprehensive treatment planning, exceptional patient care, and continued professional development. You’ll build meaningful relationships with our Associate Dentists, understand where they want to grow, and help create the support, education, and accountability needed to get them there. The role will also contribute to clinical quality initiatives, including treatment plan reviews, chart audits, clinical education, and the continued development of consistent clinical standards across our organization. This is a field-based role requiring regular travel throughout Ontario.
