Looking for a rewarding dental assistant role that values your experience, personality, and need for flexibility?
We’re seeking a confident, compassionate, and experienced Dental Assistant to join our professional, warm, and genuinely supportive team.

This is the perfect opportunity for someone who’s returning to the workforce or feeling underappreciated in their current role—and ready to feel the difference of working somewhere that sees you.

About the Role

You’ll play a vital role in the day-to-day running of our clinical spaces, including:

* Chairside assistance for a range of general and surgical procedures (implants, extractions, etc.)
* Supporting less experienced staff with calm leadership and practical mentoring
* Creating a positive and reassuring experience for every patient
* Maintaining high standards in infection control and clinical presentation

We’re a practice that believes great dentistry matters—and so do the people delivering it.

About You

You’re an experienced, mature dental assistant with a bubbly, positive outlook and a passion for people. You may be returning to work after time away, or looking for a better cultural fit than your current role provides.

You’re someone who:

* Brings warmth, professionalism and a can-do attitude to every shift
* Believes in the value of dentistry and the importance of patient care
* Is confident in the clinical setting, ideally with surgical experience (implants, wisdom teeth) or a willingness to learn
* Takes pride in a job well done and enjoys helping others grow
* Wants to be part of a team where mutual respect and support are the norm

What We Offer

We genuinely care about creating a workplace where people thrive. When you join us, you’ll enjoy:

* A competitive salary that reflects your experience and attitude
* Flexibility to support your family and lifestyle (no weekend work, time off to attend your child's sportsday and some flexibility for school drop-offs and pick-ups )
* A welcoming, stable team that values your contribution
* Variety in your work with opportunities to grow and stay stimulated
* A practice culture grounded in empathy, integrity, and excellence

Ready to return to a role where you’re appreciated?

We can’t wait to meet the right person who’ll bring their spark, experience, and heart to our team.
