Practice Managers & Leadership
Lead your practice your way, with the backing of a national group.
"My growth into leadership has been fuelled by a combination of clinic-level mentorship and corporate support. The team around me gave me the confidence to step up, and the structured training modules and hands-on guidance from my Regional Manager equipped me with both the clinical insight and management tools needed to lead successfully."
Clinical Support Teams
Dental assistants, oral health therapists, hygienists and sterilisation technicians — the clinical team behind every great patient experience.
"After years in general dentistry, I made the switch back to orthodontics and couldn't be happier. Whether you're an experienced clinician or a graduate looking to grow, Smile Partners offer exceptional mentoring, continual training and a dedicated Oral Health Therapist mentor to support your development. I would highly recommend considering a position in orthodontics, particularly with Smile Partners."
Practice Support Teams
The people who guide patients from first consultation to confident yes — connecting clinical expertise with exceptional service.
"When I started, I knew almost nothing about orthodontics, but with great support and coaching from the team, I quickly built my confidence and skills. I see every consultation as an opportunity to build a genuine connection and make someone feel welcome and excited about their journey. This role has made me a stronger communicator, a better listener and a more confident problem solver. My advice? Bring a willingness to learn, a positive attitude and genuine care for people; the rest can be taught."

Any Questions?
We’ve Got You!
We hire across our practices and head office – including practice managers, treatment coordinators, dental assistants, sterilisation technicians, oral health therapists, hygienists, receptionists, and head office specialists in marketing, operations, finance, HR, IT, and clinical support. If you’re passionate about healthcare and great patient care, there’s likely a place for you.
Each of our practices keeps its own local identity, team and community feel – so day-to-day, you join a tight-knit local team. Behind that, you have the support, training and career pathways of a national group. It’s the best of both worlds: local culture, national backing.
Yes. We have structured onboarding, ongoing in-practice training, and a growing leadership development program. Many of our practice managers and senior leaders started in clinical support or front-of-house roles. We promote from within wherever we can.
Not always. We hire from across dental and broader healthcare, and we welcome strong candidates from outside the industry for roles where transferable skills are what matter (e.g. practice management, marketing, customer experience). For clinical roles, relevant qualifications and AHPRA registration are required.
We have 40+ practices across Australia and New Zealand, including locations in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, the Gold Coast, regional Victoria and Wellington (NZ). Our support office is based in North Sydney, with hybrid working in place.
