Executive Director - Mid-West
Reports to: Chief Operating Officer
Location: Ohio, Illinois, and growth in region (onsite; some regional travel)
Scope: Full P&L and business ownership within the larger Aesthetic Partners platform
Employment Type: Full-Time
The Opportunity
This is not a traditional regional leadership role.
As Executive Director- Mid-West, you are the CEO of your own business inside Aesthetic Partners - with full ownership of strategy, growth, culture, and results across a high-performing, multi-site portfolio. You will run the region as if it were your own company: setting direction, building the team, driving revenue, and making the calls that matter.
The difference? You're not doing it alone.
Aesthetic Partners provides the capital, infrastructure, brand support, analytics, and shared services that remove friction and accelerate scale - so you can focus on building something exceptional.
If you're energized by autonomy, accountability, and the chance to grow a business with real backing behind it, this role was built for you.
About Aesthetic Partners
We are building the leading company in medical aesthetics. Aesthetic Partners has grown rapidly to 35 locations nationally. The business is backed by Norwest Venture Partners in addition to the original investor group.
Our Vision
To set a new standard in aesthetics by forging an elite, intellectual, and innovative network of visionary founders, fueled by infinite ambition to reach new heights.
Our Values
Driven to Discover • Relentless for Results • Strength in Humility • Win as One
The Role
You will have full P&L ownership of a $70M+ regional portfolio spanning plastic surgery, medical aesthetics, esthetics, and wellness across all locations and multiple brands, including Columbus Aesthetic and Plastic Surgery, NeoSkin Medical Spa, and growth throughout the region.
You are the senior-most leader in the region - responsible not only for performance, but for building the organization itself. This is a builder's role: shaping teams, developing leaders, scaling best practices, and unlocking new growth opportunities.
You'll partner closely with corporate leadership, but day to day, you are the business owner.

A proven operator and builder with 10+ years of leadership experience, including P&L ownership (multi-site preferred)
Comfortable running a complex healthcare or consumer services business at scale
Financially fluent - you understand how the business actually makes money and how to grow it

Hands-on and decisive; you don't wait for perfect information to move

You are not "managing a region" - you are running a business
You have real authority, not just responsibility
You get the upside of entrepreneurship without building from scratch
You have corporate scale, capital, and expertise behind you
You can build this organization your way - with support, not constraints
Strong equity opportunity and long-term growth within the larger AP organization Not a Fit If
You're looking for a purely corporate, low-variance leadership role
You prefer inherited teams and established playbooks over building
You want decisions made for you rather than owning the outcome
