You will bring significant experience in general dentistry, ideally with exposure to both community and hospital settings, including the delivery of care under general anaesthesia. In addition to hands‑on clinical work, your role will involve mentoring and supervising junior staff, maintaining clinical governance standards, and contributing to service development across the district.

Together, they offer the perfect mix of rural charm and coastal living – with easy access to southeast Queensland and the Northern Rivers’ lush hinterland.

Candidates will be AHPRA registered or qualified from Australia, UK, Ireland, or Canada, or be registered or qualified in New Zealand or have undertaken the ADC examination to ensure automatic AHPRA registration.
