Are you an experienced people leader looking for your next challenge?
Bupa Dental Care Melton Mowbray is seeking a motivated and driven Practice Manager to join our friendly team, working alongside Area Manager Gail Clague. This is an exciting opportunity for an ambitious manager to lead a well-established practice and make a real difference to both patients and colleagues.
We welcome applications from candidates with dental or healthcare management experience, but we're also keen to hear from retail, hospitality, leisure, or service-sector managers who have a proven track record of leading successful teams and delivering outstanding customer experiences.
What We're Looking For
- Previous management or leadership experience
- Strong people management and team development skills
- Excellent communication and organisational abilities
- A passion for delivering exceptional customer service
- Confidence in managing operational performance and achieving business objectives
Dental or healthcare experience would be advantageous, but is not essential for candidates with strong leadership and customer-facing management backgrounds
Why Join Bupa Dental Care?
At Bupa Dental Care, you'll be part of a supportive organisation that puts people first. We invest in our colleagues' development and wellbeing while providing opportunities to build a rewarding and successful career.
If you're a passionate leader who enjoys developing teams, creating positive customer experiences, and driving business success, we'd love to hear from you.
We put customers at the heart of what we do and strive to create an environment where everyone feels empowered and valued. Our team of brilliant and talented experts work collaboratively to provide the best possible care for our patients.
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.
