Territory Manager – Northern Ontario (Thunder Bay Area) in Alton

Territory Manager – Northern Ontario (Thunder Bay Area)

Permanent | Full-Time (40 hrs/week) | Management (non-union)

Our client, an established provider of outpatient addiction treatment across Ontario, is looking for a Territory Manager to lead a group of clinics across Northern Ontario. This is a hands‐on leadership role for someone who wants to build strong, supportive clinic teams and make a real difference in patient care in communities that need it.

You'll oversee day-to-day clinic operations, build and develop your teams, and keep clinic performance on track using KPIs. You'll be the go-to leader for the nursing teams in your territory — handling scheduling, hiring, performance management, training and policy questions — and you'll step in to help cover staffing gaps when needed. Office days are flexible and can be worked from a clinic or from home.

Location requirement: Candidates must live within 50 km of Thunder Bay, ON.

Open to nursing and non-healthcare backgrounds: A nursing background (RN/RPN) is an asset, but we will also consider strong multi‐site operations leaders who don't have healthcare experience.

Please note – this role involves heavy travel.

You must be comfortable with frequent long-distance driving across Northern Ontario. Mileage, employer-booked hotels and a daily meal allowance are provided.
