  • Developing into future clinical leaders

Improving the Patient Journey

• Ensure every patient leaves with a clear next step
• Strengthen clinician–TCO collaboration to improve conversions
• Identify and remove friction points in the treatment journey

Performance & Practice Alignment

• Work closely with Practice Managers and leadership to:
  • Improve chair utilisation and diary efficiency
  • Align clinician output with business performance
  • Support turnaround of underperforming clinics
• Quickly identify root causes of performance issues and implement solutions

Reporting & Insight

• Produce clear performance reports for leadership
• Translate data into:
  • Insights
  • Actions
  • Results

What We’re Looking For:

Essential

• Experienced dentist with strong clinical foundations
• Proven ability to improve clinician performance
• Clinical Lead experience
• Strong understanding of:

  • Patient journey and conversion

Ideal Experience:

• Experience mentoring or leading clinicians
• Exposure to implants and/or comprehensive dentistry
• Multi‑site or group practice experience

Key Strengths

• Data‑driven mindset
• Confident but supportive leadership style
• Ability to give constructive, actionable feedback
• Strong attention to detail and standards

Why Join:

• Be part of a modern, growth‑focused dental group
• Work in a culture that values:
  • Calmness
  • Excellence
  • Continuous development
• Shape how clinician performance is measured, coached, and improved across the business
• Play a key role in building the next generation of clinical leaders

The Opportunity

This is a unique role for a clinician who:

• Wants to influence performance at scale

You will have a direct impact on:
