Heartland Dental is seeking a Marketing Strategist to help build and run the marketing programs that keep patients engaged with the practices our supported doctors lead. Working alongside a Senior Marketing Strategist, you will execute campaigns that reduce missed appointments, bring patients back for the hygiene care they are due, and turn satisfied patients into referrals and reviews.
This is a builder's role. You will spend your time in campaign setup, testing and the data behind both, and you will grow into owning programs of your own.

Each Heartland Dental supported office is unique to the community and the patients they serve. Supported doctors are the clinical leaders of their practice, retain full clinical autonomy, and establish their own care philosophies.
All Heartland Dental supported doctors are united by a common goal: delivering the highest quality dental care and patient experiences.
