A Personal Message from our Founder:

Hello Marguerite Morgan here, Founder & Director of Irish Dental Jobs. I wanted to personally reach out. At Irish Dental Jobs, “people matter” isn’t just a tagline — it’s the heart of everything we do. We only partner with dental practices who share our belief that people come first, because our nurses deserve workplaces where they’re truly valued.

"Something I truly believe — and often share with our clients — is that our temporary dental nurses are among the very best in the country.". I know it can feel daunting at first — stepping into new practices, new teams, new routines — but time and again I’ve seen our nurses grow in confidence, meet amazing dental professionals, learn new techniques, and achieve the work–life balance they we are all searching for.

Many of our dental nurses came to us after having their first baby, unsure about leaving their little one. What started as a short-term option turned into something bigger — some have now been with us for over 10 years. That sense of family and continuity is what makes our team so special.

If you’re looking for flexibility, growth, and a genuinely supportive community, I’d love for you to consider joining our incredible team of Dental Nurses at Irish Dental Jobs.

We are absolutely delighted to be representing this Practice Owner, as we have known and worked with him for many years.

Our relationship goes back to when he was practising as a dentist himself and later when he qualified as an Implantologist and was exploring opportunities in Ireland. It has been wonderful to see his journey since then.

Today, he is the owner of a very successful 5-surgery dental clinic in Brighton, United Kingdom, with a team of 25 staff.

He is now offering a fantastic opportunity for a dentist with 2–3 years’ experience who has an interest in developing their skills in dental implants. The successful candidate will receive guidance and mentoring directly from him.

With over 10 years specialising in implants and a Master’s degree in Implant Dentistry, he is extremely well placed to support a dentist who is keen to develop in this area and grow their career.

This could be an excellent opportunity for someone who may also be open to considering relocation to the UK and joining a very supportive and progressive practice.
