Council of the City of Sydney, Australia Darlinghurst Dental Full time

Darlinghurst Dental stands out from all other dental practices. We work as a team to achieve our patient's dental health goals, and we want them to be proud of their smile. We use cloud-based technologies, a paperless office, and online bookings so patients can choose their own appointment times. Our practice is modern, spacious, full of light, and beautifully designed with patients and staff in mind.

We are looking for a Dental Assistant (full time, casual or part-time job share) to join our great team primarily during the week, with some occasional half-day Saturdays. We're seeking someone who takes pride in their work and will go the extra mile to enhance patient experience. We're looking for experienced dental assistants who know what they are doing and are happy to work full time over 4 days (or job share). We see patients from 8am to 6pm weekdays, with occasional late openings until 8pm. So, 4 days is considered full time. Reception experience is an advantage but not essential.
