About Won & Co.

Won & Co. (Won Strategy & Management, Inc.) is a healthcare management company that oversees the operations, management, and continued development of a network of premium specialty healthcare practices.

Our teams work across the practices we manage to maintain a consistent standard of clinical care, patient experience, and operational excellence.

We are currently seeking a Pediatric Dental Assistant to join our centralized clinical team supporting the following Won & Co.-managed practices:
Bear Brook Pediatric Dentistry
New Jersey Tongue Tie Center
Bear Brook Orthodontics
About the Role
This is a full-time, career-track clinical position designed for individuals who are interested in developing a long-term professional career in dental assisting.

Prior dental assisting experience is welcomed but not required. We provide fully paid, structured hands-on clinical training designed to help team members develop the clinical skills and competencies required for the position.

This position is intended for individuals who want to become highly skilled clinical professionals, take on increasing responsibility, and continue growing within the organization over time.

Because of the significant training and professional development invested in this role, this position may not be the right fit for candidates primarily seeking short-term clinical exposure, temporary employment, or a transitional role before pursuing another career path.

Just as importantly, we value a collaborative and supportive team environment. Our providers and clinical team members work closely together, support one another throughout the day, and take pride in delivering the best possible care to our patients.

Depending on operational needs, team members may also work across Won & Co.-managed practices to support patient care and clinical operations.
