Our busy five-surgery practice offers a wide range of general and specialist dentistry, including implants, endodontics and visiting specialist clinicians , giving you the opportunity to broaden your clinical experience and develop your skills.

We're a team of perfectionists, overachievers, fun seekers and empathetic people, all working towards one goal: creating an exceptional dental experience for every patient.

• Providing chairside support to dentists and visiting specialists.
• Preparing surgeries, instruments and equipment for treatments.
• Maintaining high standards of infection prevention and control.
• Taking part in the decontamination room rota.
• Keeping surgeries clean, organised and ready for patients.
• Reassuring patients and helping deliver a positive dental experience.
• Our reception team is separate from the nursing team, allowing you to focus on your clinical responsibilities and patient care.

About You

We're looking for someone who is friendly, reliable and professional, with a genuine commitment to patient care and maintaining high clinical standards.

You'll ideally be:

• A qualified, GDC-registered Dental Nurse, or a trainee with recent chairside experience.

• Looking to build a long-term career within a supportive team.
