About the Company

Finding a dental practice that genuinely fits around your life can make all the difference.

Our client is an established boutique dental practice offering a friendly, relaxed and patient-centred working environment. With just two dental chairs and a close-knit team, the practice provides a welcoming setting where clinicians can enjoy their work without the demands of a large, busy clinic.

Known for its personalised approach to preventative dentistry, our client focuses on building genuine patient relationships and creating a positive experience for both patients and staff.

About the Position Our client is looking for a caring and enthusiastic Oral Health Therapist or Dental Hygienist to join our clients' team on a flexible part-time basis.

Working just 1–2 weekdays per week, with absolutely no weekend work, this position is ideal for a clinician who wants to maintain their professional career while having more time for children, family or other important commitments.

Whether you're returning to the workforce, looking to reduce your working hours or simply seeking a more manageable schedule, this position offers the opportunity to continue doing the clinical work you enjoy.
