A rare opportunity to join a truly unique dental practice Are you a dedicated and passionate Dental Nurse who is ready to take the next step in your career? Would you like to be part of a practice where the emphasis is firmly on high-quality care, precision, and teamwork — rather than rushing through the day?

We are excited to offer an opportunity for an enthusiastic Dental Nurse to join our friendly and professional team. Our practice is privately owned and purpose-built with modern dentistry in mind. From the eco-conscious design (yes, right up to the roof!) to our fully digital workflow, everything here is designed to support our team and deliver the very best experience for our patients.

Our environment is best described as calm, smooth, and steady. We don’t believe in stacking the diary with patients — instead, we focus on delivering outstanding care at a pace that allows us to do things properly.

What your role will involve As one of our valued Dental Nurses, you’ll play a key role in supporting both clinicians and patients. Your responsibilities will include:
  • Assisting our dentists, specialists, and hygienists across a broad spectrum of treatments, including general dentistry, orthodontics, implants, cosmetic procedures, and hygiene services
  • Ensuring that all instruments, equipment, and materials are prepared, sterilised, and maintained to the highest standards of cross-infection control
  • Delivering excellent patient care by providing reassurance, information, and support before, during, and after treatment
  • Keeping accurate, detailed records using our digital systems (we currently use SOE and are transitioning to Dentally)
  • Contributing to our morning meetings at 8:30am, where the team gathers to plan and align for the day ahead
  • Being a team player — ready to assist your colleagues wherever needed to ensure the smooth running of the practice
What we’re looking for We are seeking a GDC-registered Dental Nurse who shares our commitment to patient care and team spirit.

The ideal candidate will be:
Reliable – we’re looking for someone who can be counted on and takes pride in being dependable
Hardworking and versatile – no two days are ever quite the same, so you’ll be happy to get stuck in wherever you’re needed
A true team player – someone who gels well with colleagues and helps maintain our supportive, positive atmosphere
Driven and proactive – always ready to contribute ideas and help us continuously improve
An excellent communicator – with a strong command of spoken and written English, to ensure the best possible patient experience

✨ A calm, supportive working environment where the team genuinely cares for one another
✨ A modern, eco-friendly, purpose-built practice that you can be proud to work in
✨ Free on-site parking
✨ A steady, manageable pace — no chaotic overbooking, just smooth and efficient patient care
