Surgical Coordinator

Overview:

At Surgical Direct, we’re changing the way cataract surgery happens—making every surgery day smoother, faster, and easier for surgeons and OR teams alike. We’re looking for a highly motivated Surgical Coordinator (or Cataract Coordinator) to join our growing team. If you’re dependable, detail-oriented, and love the idea of supporting clinical excellence behind the scenes, this is the role for you.

What You’ll Do:

As a Surgical Coordinator, you’ll be the backbone of our on-site cataract support. You’ll deliver, set up, and manage cataract-specific surgical equipment and supplies, and do all you can to ensure everything runs like clockwork on surgery day.

Key Responsibilities:

• Transport, set up, and break down phacoemulsification systems, microscopes, and other surgical equipment at partnered facilities (accounts)
• Ensure all case-specific supplies are packed and ready for use (including backup supplies if needed)
• Provide hands-on technical support during procedures (equipment priming, setting adjustments, troubleshooting, etc.)
• Maintain clear and effective communication with surgeons, OR teams, and the Surgical Direct operations team
• Act as a trusted point of contact and representative of our company on-site
• Follow sterilization, safety, and compliance protocols

Who You Are:

• Reliable, punctual, and organized—surgery doesn’t start without you
• High Attention to detail with the ability to stay focused
• Collaborative – you work well within a team environment and think of others
• Comfortable working in clinical environments (OR/hospital/ASC settings)
• Self-starter who thrives on problem-solving and anticipating needs
• Excellent communicator with a strong sense of customer service
• Able to lift and transport equipment (50–75 lbs), with a clean driving record
• Willing to travel locally or regionally with flexible scheduling
• Early Mornings don’t bother you (seriously…we’re talking 4am sometimes)

Bonus Points If You Have:

• Prior experience in ophthalmology or surgical environments
• Familiarity with phaco systems, surgical equipment, or medical devices
• A background in sterile processing or surgical tech support

Training:

Never been in a surgical environment before? That is OK! We provide an in-house 90-day training, where we will train you on everything you need to know about the position, the equipment, and the protocols you need to follow when working in a surgical environment. Our entire team goes through annual training with vendors, aeseptic techniques, safety regulations, and more (all covered).

Benefits:

• Full-time salary at part-time schedule (12-13 days per month)
• Quarterly Bonus Opportunities (based on performance)
• We offer health, vision, and dental insurance
• We offer a matching 401K plan
• Remarkable service-oriented team environment
• Great Culture and team-mates! (we’re a fun bunch)

Why Join Surgical Direct?

We’re a fast-growing team on a mission to simplify cataract surgery logistics for healthcare facilities nationwide. You’ll play a vital role in creating better surgery days—for everyone involved. We offer full training, competitive pay, opportunities for advancement, and a killer annual work party!
