About You

We're looking for someone who is organised, approachable, and adaptable. You'll thrive in this role if you enjoy variety, can balance clinical and admin responsibilities, and bring a positive, professional attitude to the team.

The ideal candidate will have:

  • Previous experience in a dental or specialist medical practice (highly regarded but not essential)
  • Excellent communication and people skills
  • Strong attention to detail and organisational ability
  • Confidence to work independently and take initiative
  • A mature, professional approach to handling sensitive information
  • Comfort with digital tools and willingness to learn new systems
  • A proactive, "can do" attitude in a busy environment
