As Head of Talent Acquisition, Leanne leads the national recruitment strategy for orthodontists across the network, ensuring we attract, engage, and retain high-calibre clinicians who align with our commitment to exceptional patient care. Working closely with clinicians, practice leaders, and partners, she focuses on building trusted relationships and long-term career pathways that support both personal and professional aspirations. Her role goes beyond recruitment—it’s about understanding what matters most to each orthodontist and ensuring Smile Partners is a place where they can thrive.

With over a decade of experience in healthcare recruitment, workforce planning, and employer branding, Leanne brings a deep understanding of how to support clinicians in making informed, confident decisions about their future. She is particularly passionate about helping orthodontists navigate career transitions – whether they’re relocating from overseas or across the country, stepping into practice ownership, or just starting out in their careers—ensuring they feel supported every step of the way.

Based on the Gold Coast, Leanne enjoys life by the ocean, travelling around Australia in her campervan with her husband, exploring new food destinations, and spending time with family in the UK whenever she can.
