Job Description
General Manager / Operating Leader – Healthcare Services Portfolio
Compensation: ~$100-125K base + bonus with meaningful upside
We are seeking a proven operator to lead several established healthcare service businesses in the GTA. These are physician-led, high-volume clinical environments that require disciplined execution, strong leadership presence, and a mindset focused on operational excellence and financial performance.
You Are
- An operations-focused leader who thrives in fast-moving, real-world environments—not a corporate oversight role
- Skilled at building trust with physicians and clinical teams while still driving accountability and performance
- Comfortable owning P&L outcomes and motivated by a clear EBITDA-tied bonus structure
- Process-minded and data-driven, with the ability to implement systems that improve throughput and margins
- Someone who takes initiative, communicates clearly, and makes decisive calls—even when it means challenging existing norms
- Likely earlier in your leadership career but hungry for real responsibility and autonomy
Key Responsibilities
- Take full operational leadership of several complementary healthcare services businesses, with direct accountability for workflow efficiency, service levels, and financial performance
- Build and manage a high-performing front-line team, setting expectations, coaching, and addressing performance gaps
- Introduce practical operational systems and KPIs to create visibility and discipline across functions
- Collaborate with physician leadership while operating with a high degree of independence and trust from ownership
- Identify opportunities to improve patient flow, staff productivity, scheduling, and overall resource utilization
- Drive EBITDA growth through operational improvements—with clear linkage to compensation
What Success Looks Like
- Operations run smoothly with measurable improvements in efficiency and financial performance
- Staff operate with clarity, accountability, and a culture of continuous improvement
- Physicians feel supported through strong operational leadership and proactive problem-solving
- You establish yourself as the operational lead with full trust to run and improve the business
This Opportunity Is Ideal For
- A healthcare operations lead, clinic administrator, or entrepreneurial operator ready to own outcomes—not just advise
- Someone who wants direct line-of-sight between their work, business performance, and compensation
- An ambitious leader who sees this as a platform role with potential for multi-site growth and expanded responsibility
If you're driven by impact, comfortable being accountable for results, and looking for a role where your operational leadership directly creates enterprise value, we'd like to speak with you.
