About 3Sixty

3Sixty is a US based company offering a range of products and services to dental professionals. As our volumes grow, we are strengthening operational leadership with a senior operations manager role.

Role Summary

We are hiring a Dental Lab Operations Manager to run the daily performance of our digital dental lab operations, and to own case delivery SLAs end-to-end. This role is responsible for throughput, backlog, quality, staffing, and execution discipline—ensuring every case moves smoothly from intake to final delivery.

This is a hands-on leadership role based in Cairo, working closely with leadership and cross-functional teams to maintain high standards while scaling output.

Key Responsibilities

• Resolve delivery risks and operational bottlenecks quickly
  

2) Team Leadership & Performance

• Set clear expectations, daily/weekly targets, and accountability rhythms
  
• Run performance reviews and coaching plans; build bench strength and succession
  
• Build an environment where people feel supported, clear on priorities, and accountable
  

3) Quality Management

• Drive consistent quality through structured review processes and clear standards
  
• Reduce rework and remakes by addressing root causes (training gaps, unclear inputs, workflow issues)
  
• Partner with quality/training to improve adherence to protocols
  

4) Workforce Planning & Operations Control

• Manage staffing, scheduling, shift planning, and workload allocation
  
• Track operational KPIs (delivery, output, rework, utilization, attendance) and report them clearly
  
• Build simple, repeatable operating routines (daily huddles, weekly reviews, escalation paths)
  

5) Process Improvement

• Identify friction points and implement improvements that reduce cycle time and errors
  
• Standardize workflows where needed—without slowing the business
