Dental Nurse
Smilemakers Cosmetic Dental Practice & Referral Centre
Permanent | Part-Time
Love dentistry? Looking for a practice where you can build a long-term career?
At Smilemakers Cosmetic Dental Practice & Referral Centre, we're passionate about delivering exceptional patient care and we know that starts with an exceptional team.
We're looking for a qualified GDC Registered Dental Nurse to join our friendly, supportive and forward-thinking practice on a part-time basis.
We're looking for someone who is enthusiastic, engaged and genuinely passionate about dentistry. If you enjoy learning, thrive in a busy clinical environment and want to be part of a large, supportive team, we'd love to hear from you.
This is much more than a general nursing role. As part of our modern 11-surgery private practice and referral centre, you'll work alongside experienced clinicians across a wide range of treatments, including general dentistry, implants, cosmetic dentistry, orthodontics, facial aesthetics, endodontics and hygiene.
No two days are the same, and because you won't be assigned to one clinician, you'll gain experience across multiple disciplines while working with a collaborative team of dentists, specialists and nurses. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who wants to broaden their experience and continue developing their career.
Working Pattern
This is a part-time position working four days per week: Tuesday - Friday.
Whilst Friday availability is essential to this role, if you're unable to work all four days but feel you'd be a great fit for our team, we'd love to hear from you. We're happy to have a conversation about alternative working patterns to see if we can make them work for both you and the practice.
What We're Looking For

Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
