Published: 6/14/2022

Job Description

Direct your “never met a stranger” relationship skills, event planning experience, knack for turning ideas into results, and education in marketing into the role of Public Relations Coordinator with an orthodontic practice that makes the world more beautiful... one smile at a time.

This may just be the career opportunity you've been looking for!

Quest Orthodontics, the highly respected, private orthodontic practice of Dr. Arjun Patel and Team, is searching for an exceptional Public Relations Coordinator to add their smile and expertise to their workgroup. We're looking for someone with a genuine enthusiasm for people, a flair for creativity, and the confidence to turn great ideas into meaningful results. Someone who understands that success in marketing is about being present, building trust, creating memorable experiences, and developing relationships that last.

What makes Quest Orthodontics special? Our people, our patients, and our commitment to making every smile experience extraordinary! We're a close-knit team that takes pride in delivering exceptional orthodontic care while creating an atmosphere where patients and families feel genuinely welcomed and appreciated. We believe professionalism and personality go hand in hand, and we're looking for someone who shares that philosophy.

Could You Be the Person We're Looking For? Are you the kind of person who can walk into a room full of strangers and leave with a handful of new connections? Do you find yourself thinking of creative ways to promote a business or bring people together? Do you enjoy the challenge of setting goals, developing a plan, and seeing your efforts produce measurable results? Are you organized enough to manage multiple projects, yet flexible enough to embrace the unexpected? If you're nodding “YES”, keep reading!

What Does Our Public Relations Coordinator Do? In this highly visible and influential role, you'll be one of the faces of Quest Orthodontics, both inside our practice and throughout our community. Your mission will be to strengthen our reputation, develop valuable relationships, and introduce more families to the exceptional care that Quest Orthodontics provides. Your days will be filled with variety, including:

Building Community Connections: Develop and maintain meaningful relationships with local schools, sports teams, nonprofit organizations, businesses, and community leaders.
Creating Memorable Events: Plan and coordinate patient appreciation celebrations, school programs, sponsorship activities, and community outreach events that leave a lasting impression.
Strengthening Professional Partnerships: Cultivate relationships with our referring general and pediatric dental practices, helping expand our professional referral network.
Bringing Our Brand to Life: Develop engaging social media content that showcases our team, patient experiences, office culture, and involvement in the community.
Growing Our Practice: Help generate new patient consultations by increasing awareness, strengthening referral relationships, and creating marketing initiatives that encourage families to connect with us.
Managing Our Public Image: Represent Quest Orthodontics with professionalism and warmth while supporting our online reputation, patient reviews, local media opportunities, and public communications.
Creating Exceptional First Impressions: Be a welcoming presence for patients and families visiting our practice and collaborate with teammates to ensure every interaction reflects our commitment to outstanding service.

You'll also be part of a collaborative team that supports one another. From time to time, that means assisting with patient calls, scheduling, and other administrative responsibilities that keep the practice running smoothly. We're seeking someone who enjoys getting involved, meeting people, taking initiative, and seeing the impact of their work firsthand.

What are the qualifications to apply? Professional skills are important, but we believe the right personality, attitude, and work ethic are just as valuable!

Our ideal candidate will bring:

Exceptional People Skills: A naturally warm, engaging personality with the confidence to communicate comfortably with everyone from young patients and parents to business owners and dental professionals.
Education & Work Experience: Bachelor’s degree in marketing, communication, public relations or related field. At least 2 years of work experience in a professional office setting or outside sales.
Creativity & Initiative: A talent for generating fresh ideas and the motivation to turn those ideas into action.
Strong Communication Skills: An articulate, polished speaking style and excellent written communication skills.
A “Show Stopper” Smile: Coupled with the belief that a healthy smile positively impacts and changes lives.
Organization & Follow-Through: The ability to juggle multiple projects, manage details, meet deadlines, and consistently deliver on commitments.
A Results-Oriented Mindset: Someone who enjoys setting goals, measuring progress, and finding new ways to achieve success.
Social Media Savvy: Familiarity with creating engaging digital content and using social platforms to build connections and brand awareness.
Confidence & Professionalism: A poised, positive presence who represents the practice with integrity, discretion, and enthusiasm.
Adaptability & Team Spirit: A willingness to jump in wherever needed, embrace feedback, and contribute to a supportive, high-performing team.
Reliability & Strong Work Ethic: Someone who takes ownership of responsibilities, follows through, and takes genuine pride in a job well done.
Desire for a Creative & Flexible Working Schedule: This position is both “on the go” and present in our practice. Must be able to attend all Quest Orthodontic events and must be willing to attend occasional community events that are scheduled for evenings or weekends. This is not a remote position.
