Job description

St. Louis South Oral Surgery and Evolutions MedSpa are seeking an exceptionally organized, proactive, and resourceful Executive Assistant and Practice Operations Coordinator to support the owner and leadership team across two growing healthcare organizations.

  • An associate's or bachelor's degree in business administration, healthcare administration, communications, human resources, or a related field.

Ideal Candidate Profile:
  • You may be an excellent fit for this role if you naturally create order from complexity.
  • Keep detailed records and do not rely solely on memory; notice when something is incomplete, inconsistent, or likely to become a problem.
  • Are comfortable asking for clarification and holding others accountable.
  • Can work independently while keeping leadership appropriately informed. Understand the difference between urgency and importance.
  • Communicate directly, professionally, and diplomatically.
  • Take ownership of outcomes rather than merely completing isolated tasks; are comfortable supporting two distinct but related healthcare brands. Remain calm and effective when schedules, priorities, or circumstances change; and prefer completing tasks correctly and thoroughly rather than simply appearing busy.

This Position Is Not a Fit for Someone Who:
This role is not a fit for someone who requires constant direction or repeated reminders; is uncomfortable managing several simultaneous projects; avoids difficult follow-up conversations; struggles with rapidly changing priorities; has difficulty maintaining confidentiality; waits for problems to be identified by someone else; or views executive assistance as primarily calendar management or clerical work.

Compensation and Benefits:
Compensation is $70,000 annually, plus eligibility for a quarterly performance bonus of up to 5% of base salary. Bonus eligibility is based on objective performance measures, including credentialing accuracy, deadline management, calendar and scheduling reliability, project completion, operational follow-through, and documentation quality. Compensation will also be based on experience, qualifications, and the candidate's ability to assume operational responsibility. Potential benefits may include paid time off, paid holidays, health or supplemental benefits (depending on eligibility), employee discounts on eligible services, professional-development opportunities, and advancement potential as the organizations continue to grow.

Application Instructions:
Please submit a current resume; a brief statement describing your experience supporting executives or healthcare practices; an example of a complex administrative, credentialing, scheduling, or operational project you personally managed; a description of the systems you use to track deadlines, delegated assignments, and follow-up responsibilities; and your desired compensation range and earliest available start date. Qualified candidates may be asked to complete a practical exercise involving calendar prioritization, project tracking, written communication, and credentialing deadline management.
