About the Role

As our Dental Receptionist, you will be the first point of contact for many of our patients and play an important role in creating a welcoming, professional, and supportive experience.

  • Manage patient enquiries via phone, SMS, email, and social media

  • Coordinate appointments, bookings, and scheduling

  • Provide clear, friendly, and professional communication

  • Assist management and the wider team as required

  • Contribute to workflow organisation and process efficiency

  • A calm and professional approach under pressure

  • Strong initiative and a solutions-focused mindset

  • The ability to learn quickly and adapt to change

  • Positive energy and a genuine commitment to patient care

  • A strong desire to contribute to a supportive team environment

Candidates may come from backgrounds including dental or medical reception, administration, hospitality, customer service, allied health, or other people-focused roles.

Previous dental experience is highly regarded but is not essential for the right candidate.

What We Offer

We offer:

  • A supportive, friendly, and collaborative team environment

  • A modern and progressive dental practice
