Experienced Dental Assistant/Reception

Heal Dental Care is looking for an experienced dental assistant who is confident chairside and open to being cross-trained in reception.

We are a family-owned dental practice in Burleigh Heads with a close-knit team of eight clinicians and nine support staff. We care about doing excellent work, treating people well and creating a workplace where everyone contributes.

This role would suit someone reliable, capable and genuinely team-minded, someone who takes pride in the details, communicates well with patients and is happy to step between clinical and front-office duties when needed.

About the role

Depending on your experience, your responsibilities may include:

• Chairside assisting

• Sterilisation and infection control

• Clinical note-taking

• Stock control

• Supporting patient flow and appointment management

• Reception duties, including answering phones, booking appointments and assisting patients

• Working closely with clinicians and the wider team to create a calm, positive patient experience

We are open to full-time, part-time or casual applicants. Weekend work is shared across a rotating roster, with applicable penalty rates.

An immediate start is available, although we are happy to discuss a start date that works for the right person.

About you

You’ll be someone who takes pride in their work, shows up for the team and genuinely cares about giving patients a great experience.

You will ideally have:

• Previous dental assisting experience

• A strong work ethic and good attention to detail

• Clear, mature communication skills

• A calm and empathetic approach with patients

• A positive, practical attitude

• The ability to work well within a busy team

• An interest in developing your reception and administration skills

Experience using D4W is helpful, but not essential.

What we offer

• A supportive, established team

• A friendly workplace without unnecessary hierarchy or ego

• Flexible working arrangements

• Weekend opportunities with penalty rates

• Ongoing training and support

• Opportunities to complete certificate studies

• Genuine pathways into reception, clinical coordination, administration or management

• Recognition and reward for people who work hard and contribute to the team

We are looking for someone who wants to become a valued part of the practice, not simply fill a roster.

To apply, please send us your resume and a brief introduction telling us a little about your dental experience and what you are looking for in your next role.
