Head Dental Nurse - Full-Time
Shipston Dental Practice CV36 4AE
If you're an experienced Dental Nurse ready to take the next step into a leadership role, this could be the opportunity you've been looking for.
Imagine working somewhere you're genuinely appreciated, where your leadership is valued, your development is encouraged, and you're surrounded by people who enjoy what they do. At Shipston Dental Practice, we've created an environment where our team feels supported, valued, and proud of the care they provide every day.
You'll join a friendly, experienced team in a beautifully presented town-centre practice where patients are always at the heart of everything we do. As our Head Dental Nurse, you'll lead by example, supporting the nursing team while helping to ensure the smooth day-to-day running of the practice and maintaining the highest clinical standards.
Alongside chairside nursing across a wide range of treatments, including restorative dentistry, endodontics, and implants, you'll oversee infection prevention and control, stock management, equipment servicing and maintenance, clinical audits, compliance processes, and the induction and support of new nursing team members. This is a varied role with real responsibility and plenty of opportunities to continue developing your leadership skills.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
With no evenings, weekends, or bank holiday working, you'll enjoy a fantastic work-life balance while building a rewarding career.
What's in it for you?
- Hourly rate: up to £17.00ph
- Working hours between Monday to Friday between 8:15am and 5:30pm
- GDC registration, indemnity, and CPD fully paid
- Funded postgraduate courses to support your career development
- An extra paid day off for your birthday
- Free parking nearby
- Contributory pension scheme
- Uniform provided
- A supportive team with genuine opportunities to progress
About You
You'll be a qualified GDC-registered Dental Nurse with excellent organisational skills, a proactive approach, and the confidence to support and lead a team. Previous experience in a senior or lead nursing role would be advantageous, but we're equally keen to hear from experienced nurses ready to step into their first leadership position.
You'll also be radiation trained, as you'll be required to undertake the role of Radiation Protection Supervisor (RPS) for the practice.
