Now Hiring: Lead Dental Assistant Instructor
Indigo Institute – Provo, UT (On-site)
Excellent Opportunity for an Experienced Dental Assistant or Hygienist
Indigo Institute is urgently hiring a Lead Dental Assistant Instructor to lead and manage our instructional team in Provo, Utah. This is a rare opportunity for an experienced dental professional who wants to step out of the daily grind of chairside assisting and into a leadership, mentorship, and program management role—overseeing the training of future dental assistants instead of seeing patients all day.
You will not be teaching full-time. Your role is to manage, support, and develop our instructors, ensure training quality, and uphold clinical standards.
What You'll Be Doing
- Hire, onboard, and develop dental assistant instructors
- Lead instructor meetings, trainings, and evaluations
- Ensure consistent, high-quality curriculum delivery
- Serve as the clinical expert for program quality
- Partner with compliance and operations teams
- Support new market launches and instructor ramp-up
- Provide backup instructional coverage when needed
What We're Looking For
- Active RDA EF2 (or equivalent) with 5+ years chairside experience
- Teaching, training, or leadership background preferred
- Strong communication, organization, and leadership skills
- Comfortable in an on-site leadership role
- Available Saturdays (partial days - mostly mornings)
- Passion for mentorship and education
Why This Role Stands Out
- Leadership position — manage instructors, not patients
- Move out of the operatory and into program leadership
- High-growth organization with advancement opportunities
- Competitive compensation based on experience
