We are looking for an experienced and enthusiastic Lead Dental Nurse / Sedation Nurse to join our friendly team at Oakmead Dental Practice in East Grinstead.

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced Dental Nurse with sedation experience who is ready to take the next step in their career. You'll combine hands-on clinical nursing with a senior role, supporting the wider nursing team and helping to maintain excellent standards of patient care and clinical practice.

Working closely with our clinicians and nursing team, you'll provide high-quality chairside support, assist with sedation procedures and help ensure the smooth and efficient running of the clinical environment.

Working pattern: 20 hours per week, including Saturdays. Saturday working is essential for this role.

Oakmead is a welcoming three-surgery dental practice based in a small town in West Sussex, conveniently located close to the local train station, making us easily accessible by public transport.

Our practice is a converted house, with all three surgeries located on the ground floor, creating a comfortable and accessible environment for both our patients and colleagues.

We pride ourselves on creating a friendly and supportive atmosphere where patients and colleagues feel valued. Our team works collaboratively to provide high-quality patient care, while supporting each other to develop and maintain high clinical standards.

As Lead Dental Nurse / Sedation Nurse, you'll provide high-quality chairside support across a range of treatments, with a particular focus on sedation nursing. You'll play an important role in supporting clinicians and ensuring patients receive safe, reassuring and compassionate care throughout their treatment.

As part of your Lead Nurse responsibilities, you'll support and guide the nursing team, promote best practice and help maintain consistently high clinical standards across the practice. You'll contribute to the smooth running of the surgery environment and work closely with colleagues to ensure the team is organised, supported and working effectively.

Your responsibilities will include preparing surgeries and equipment, providing chairside assistance, supporting sedation procedures, maintaining accurate clinical records and ensuring high standards of decontamination and infection prevention and control.

You'll also help ensure the practice remains compliant with relevant policies, procedures and regulatory requirements, while contributing to a positive culture of teamwork, accountability and continuous improvement.

We're looking for someone who is:

• GDC Registered as a Dental Nurse.
• Experienced in dental nursing with previous sedation experience.
• Confident providing chairside support and working alongside a range of clinicians.
• Organised, proactive and able to work independently.
• A supportive team player who enjoys helping and developing colleagues.
• Professional, approachable and passionate about patient care.
• Committed to maintaining high clinical, compliance and infection control standards.
• Confident communicating with both patients and colleagues.
• Able to commit to working Saturdays as part of their regular working pattern.

Previous experience in a Lead Dental Nurse or senior nursing position would be advantageous, although we would also welcome applications from experienced Dental Nurses who are ready to take the next step in their career.

• Competitive salary based on experience and qualifications.
• Supportive, friendly and collaborative team environment.
• Ongoing professional development and training opportunities.
• Modern practice with high-quality equipment and facilities.
• Employee referral scheme.
• Contributory pension scheme.
• Paid birthday leave.
• Uniform provided.

This is a great opportunity to join a practice where you can make a real difference. As Lead Nurse, you'll have the opportunity to use your clinical experience while taking on additional responsibility for supporting the nursing team and maintaining high standards across the practice.

You'll be joining a close-knit team within a welcoming three-surgery practice, where collaboration, patient care and professional development are valued.

If you're an experienced Dental Nurse with sedation experience looking for a part-time role where you can develop your leadership skills within a friendly and supportive environment, we'd love to hear from you.

Your supporting statement should be in your own words and must accurately reflect your personal experience and achievements. Where we have concerns that AI has been used to generate content that misrepresents your experience and suitability for the role, we may withdraw your application.
