Ready for the Next Step in Your Dental Career?

We're looking for an experienced Dental Receptionist who communicates confidently, takes initiative and enjoys taking ownership of their role.

Ideally, you'll have 2+ year of dental reception experience or 3+ years of broader dental experience . Experienced Dental Assistants ready to move into reception and take the next step in their dental career are also very welcome to apply.

This isn't a role where you'll simply turn up, answer phones and book appointments. This is a great prospect for someone who takes pride in their work, genuinely cares about patients and wants to grow professionally, with a clear pathway towards Practice Manager .

We're a small, close-knit team where the dentist, dental assistant and receptionist work closely together.

Our values are:

Relationships | Respect | Integrity | Initiative | Teamwork | Excellence

We believe everyone should be the leader of their own role . You'll have established systems and clear expectations, but you won't be micromanaged. We value people who take ownership, speak up when something isn't working and contribute ideas to make the practice better.

We offer:

- $37–$41 per hour , depending on experience

- 3–4 days (24–38 hours) per week with predictable hours and days once roster is established

- Regular, pre-agreed performance reviews and opportunities for pay progression

- Genuine pathway to Practice Manager

- Ongoing training and career development

- Supportive, collaborative leadership

- Potential performance-based incentives for high performers





- Free onsite staff parking

- Fantastic West End location close to cafés, restaurants, shops and public transport

About You

You'll ideally:

- Have 2+ year dental reception experience or 3+ years dental experience

- Have strong integrity and be someone we can trust

- Take initiative and ownership

- Be organised, reliable and detail-focused

- Be proactive with patient follow-up and appointment management

- Communicate warmly and professionally

- Stay calm with anxious, demanding or frustrated patients

- Work well independently and as part of a small team

- Be adaptable, open to feedback and always trying to be even better

- Take accountability for results and pride in doing things properly

The Role

Your responsibilities will include:

- Front desk reception and patient communication

- Appointment scheduling and diary management

- Proactively filling appointment gaps

- Following up treatment, recalls and patients due to return

- Discussing treatment, fees and payment options

- Processing payments and maintaining accurate patient records

- Stocktake and ordering

- Assist in steri duties

- Managing daily, weekly and monthly reception responsibilities

- Supporting the clinical team and building strong patient relationships

- Helping improve our systems and patient experience

Career Progression

For the right person, this role can become much more than reception.

After 12 months of consistently strong performance , you will be considered for progression into our Practice Manager role .

We'll agree on regular performance review intervals from the outset, covering your achievements, KPIs, development, responsibilities and remuneration.

Demonstrated performance will form the basis for pay rises and career progression.

Ready to Grow With Us?

We look forward to hearing from you.
