Dental Practice Co-ordinator

Practice Coordinator — Dental Clinic (St Leonards, NSW)

Location: St Leonards, NSW
Type: Part-time (4 days/week initially, increasing to pro-rata full-time as the role grows)

About Us

We're a modern, fully renovated dental clinic in St Leonards, fitted with the latest equipment and supported by an established, friendly team. Our principal dentist is hands-on, works three clinical days a week, and brings 15 years of experience and high clinical standards. We take a comprehensive approach to care — longer appointments, thorough treatment planning, and genuine long-term relationships with our patients.

We're looking for someone local who wants to put down roots and help us grow the business over the long term. Culture fit matters to us as much as skills.

Are You the Perfect Fit?

Do you have a background in dental, administration, or team leadership? Are you a tech-savvy professional who learns new systems easily? This is your opportunity!

We're after someone with:

• Excellent English and communication skills
• A happy, outgoing personality — you enjoy a genuine chat, especially with our older patient base
• Reliability, strong organisation, and comfort juggling front desk, admin, and occasional clinical support
• A strong culture fit who shares our commitment to high standards
• Experience with Principle dental software (or the ability to pick it up quickly) — a plus
• Previous dental or healthcare experience — highly regarded
• Ideally live around St Leonards area and a desire to grow into a long-term role

Your Key Responsibilities

• Operations: Manage rosters and KPIs
• Front Desk: Handle general reception, manage appointments, and oversee recalls
• Marketing & Patient Care: Support marketing initiatives and provide exceptional patient care — including following up planned treatment, booking patients in, and generating Google reviews and recommendations
• Clinical roles: maintain infection control and sterilisation protocols, with occasional chairside assisting as required

The role begins with a probation period focused on learning how the business operates from the ground up — focused on reception, with occasional chairside assisting and sterilisation duties as required. From there, the role grows into the broader coordinator responsibilities above.

Why Join Us

• A genuine opportunity to grow with the business over time
• Hands-on principal dentist who values good people and a great workplace culture
