Victoria Park Dental Care has an exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic, warm and motivated individual to join our growing team!

About Us

We are an established general and cosmetic dental practice bringing high-quality dental care to the eastern suburbs of Adelaide and currently entering an exciting new chapter.

Our practice will be soon undergoing a complete renovation, creating a beautiful, light-filled, state of the art space with the latest in dental technology in leafy Rose Park overlooking the heritage-listed Victoria Park.

We are a boutique, privately owned practice backed by a solid reputation, with patients traveling from across town to see us. We are well-loved and genuinely trusted by our local community.

Led by Dr Kate Chen, our philosophy is simple: exceptional dentistry should also feel exceptionally human.

Our team is purposefully close-knit and we ensure every patient receives personalised care where they truly feel known and valued.

We believe great dental care is about more than treating teeth. We want our patients to feel calm, safe, seen and genuinely cared for from the moment they walk through our doors.

We take the time to build long-term relationships with our patients and their families, combining personalised care with high clinical standards, modern technology and minimally invasive dentistry.

We are building a team who share our values and care as much we do about how we treat one another as much as how we treat our patients. We value kindness, reliability, initiative, curiosity and people who genuinely want to contribute to a supportive and positive workplace.

The successful candidate will work at our soon to be renovated new, state of the art practice in leafy Rose Park overlooking the heritage listed Victoria Park, with amazing natural light and generous staff amenities.
