VP of Pain Management - Orthopedic & Sports Medicine Practice

Are you a physical therapist or clinical leader with deep orthopedic and surgical know-how, ready to step into a high-impact leadership role?

A well-established, multidisciplinary orthopedic and sports medicine practice is looking for a VP of Interventional Pain Management to lead its pain management department and help patients spend less time in pain and more time living their lives.

This is a unique opportunity for someone who thrives at the intersection of clinical care and operational leadership - someone who understands surgical case flow, can read imaging like MRIs, and knows how to build strong relationships with surgeons and care teams.

What You'll Do:

• Act as the go-to liaison between surgeons, staff, patients, and outside partners to keep everything running smoothly
• Track performance metrics, identify improvement opportunities, and roll out best practices across the department
• Serve as the first point of review for incoming surgical cases, compiling clinical data and presenting summaries to surgeons
• Lead and support the administrative team within the sports medicine/hand department, coordinating schedules and resources
• Partner with surgeons, physical therapists, and other providers to ensure seamless, continuous patient care
• Facilitate case conferences and interdisciplinary meetings to keep everyone aligned
• Monitor patient outcomes and proactively address any barriers to successful treatment
• Ensure every process meets top clinical, regulatory, and organizational standards

What We're Looking For:

• A background as a PT (or similar clinical background) with strong orthopedic/surgical exposure - comfort reading MRIs is a big plus
• Proven experience collaborating closely with surgeons and multidisciplinary medical teams
• Administrative or leadership chops - you've managed people, workflows, or both
• Excellent communication skills and a genuine passion for patient-centered care
• Willingness to split time between headquarters and practice locations throughout the week

Compensation & Perks:

• Bonus potential
• The chance to build and shape a department from a true leadership seat
