Job Description
Locum Dental Therapist - Plymouth Dental Centre of Excellence - Devon
🦷 About Us
Plymouth Centre of Dental Excellence are looking for a Locum Dental Therapist to join their team on a short-term basis. We are expecting the contract to last for around 3 months, however, there may be an extension to this.
Plymouth Dental Centre of Excellence is a multi-award-winning private dental practice located in St. Budeaux, Plymouth. Established in 1995, the practice is committed to maintaining an excellent standard of care and service. From the moment a patient walks into the practice, through to the treatment received and post-treatment communication, every step of the journey is designed to deliver an outstanding experience.
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.
