Job Description

We are looking for a Sterilisation Assistant to join our team on a part-time basis!

Are you detail-oriented, highly organised, and passionate about upholding the highest standards of infection control in a clinical setting? If so, we want to hear from you!

In this vital role, you’ll help ensure a safe, clean, and welcoming environment for both patients and staff.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Cleaning, sterilising, and maintaining dental instruments and equipment
• Accurately monitoring and recording sterilisation processes
• Assisting with infection control procedures across the clinic
• Ensuring compliance with health and safety regulations
• Assisting with stock management
• Supporting clinical staff with room setups and patient turnaround
• Assisting the dentist chairside (training provided)
• Jumping in at reception as needed and supporting our front-desk team (training provided)

About You

You're a kind, hardworking team player who takes initiative and adapts easily. You don’t mind getting your hands dirty (literally!) and take pride in keeping things running smoothly behind the scenes. You’re known for your positive attitude, strong communication, and attention to detail.

What We’re Looking For

• Honest, hardworking, and reliable
• Ability to multitask and prioritise efficiently
• Self-motivated and proactive
• Excellent verbal and written communication
• Comfortable handling used medical equipment—not for the faint of heart!
  
  

You'll be working in a supportive, close-knit team where your contribution truly matters. As the "glue" of the practice, your role is essential—and appreciated.

Qualifications

• Previous experience in a medical field is preferred due to the nature of the work
• Excellent communication, listening, and interpersonal skills.
• A positive and team-orientated approach to all you do.
