It's one of the most sought-after stretches of coastline in the country, with a genuine, close-knit community feel, right on the NSW-Queensland border. You're about 20 minutes from the Gold Coast and around 15 minutes' drive from Gold Coasts International Airport, so family and friends can visit easily, and a flight home is never far away. We've looked after Kingscliff families since 1969, from the Kingscliff Professional Centre on Pearl Street, right in the heart of town. We're dentist-owned, so the clinical calls stay with the clinicians, and you've got the backing of a network of more than 12 practices behind you. The team here is well established: a hygienist, an oral health therapist and an on-site prosthetist work alongside the dentists, so you're well supported and can refer in-house. We're offering a relocation package to the successful candidate, the details to be confirmed with you directly. If you've been ready to trade the Sydney grind for a genuine coastal life without losing your career momentum, this is a rare chance to have both.

This is a role for a general dentist, full-time or part-time, the rostered days can be flexible to suit you. You'll step into an established book with a steady flow of patients, so you're busy from the start without building from scratch. We're a preferred provider for most major health funds, which keeps that flow consistent. A good day here looks like confident, comprehensive care across a broad general scope, patients who come back and bring their family, and a calm, well-run surgery around you.

• Assessing, diagnosing and treating patients across a broad general scope
• Delivering preventative, restorative, endodontic, surgical, periodontal and prosthodontic care
• Using CEREC for same-day crowns, and CBCT, where they help you deliver better care
• Talking patients through their options clearly, so they understand the plan and the cost up front
• Working closely with your assistant and reception team to keep the day running smoothly
• Working within the codes and guidelines of the Dental Board of Australia

• Current AHPRA registration as a dentist, or eligible for registration, plus indemnity insurance
• Sound clinical judgement across everyday general dentistry
• Easy to work with: warm with patients, steady with the team
• Experience with CEREC for same-day dentistry (preferable but not essential)
• CBCT licence, or willingness to obtain one
• Open to relocating from Sydney, or anywhere else, to the NSW Far North Coast
• A genuinely broad case mix across all ages, from everyday general care through to implants and Invisalign
• No KPIs or financial targets: how you build your day and your patient relationships is up to you
• Uncapped, performance-based commission: what you earn scales with what you bill, some of our dentists bill well into seven figures a year
• Dentist-owned, so you keep your clinical autonomy with the backing of a 12-practice network, plus mentorship from more than 70 clinicians and study clubs streamed live and recorded for playback
• Backed by a group marketing team bringing new patients through the door, so you're stepping into a modern, high-performing practice, not building one from scratch
• A relocation package to help make the move, right into a coastal life that's a short walk to the beach, Pearl Street cafes and the weekend markets. Details confirmed once we've found the right person

We're dentist-owned, not a corporate chain, so the clinical calls stay with the clinicians, and you've got the backing of a network of more than 12 practices behind you. The team here is well established: a hygienist, an oral health therapist and an on-site prosthetist work alongside the dentists, so you're well supported and can refer in-house. Being right in the centre of town means we're easy to find and easy to get to, and that steady visibility keeps a good flow of locals through the door. It's also a short walk to the beach, and we're genuinely part of the local community. If you've been weighing up a coastal life that still has real career backing behind it, this is a rare chance to have both.

This is a role for a general dentist, full-time or part-time, the rostered days can be flexible to suit you. You'll step into an established book with a steady flow of patients, so you're busy from the start without building from scratch. We're a preferred provider for most major health funds, which keeps that flow consistent. A good day here looks like confident, comprehensive care across a broad general scope, patients who come back and bring their family, and a calm, well-run surgery around you.

• Assessing, diagnosing and treating patients across a broad general scope
• Delivering preventative, restorative, endodontic, surgical, periodontal and prosthodontic care
• Using CEREC for same-day crowns, and CBCT, where they help you deliver better care
• Talking patients through their options clearly, so they understand the plan and the cost up front
• Working closely with your assistant and reception team to keep the day running smoothly
• Working within the codes and guidelines of the Dental Board of Australia

• Current AHPRA registration as a dentist, or eligible for registration, plus indemnity insurance
• Sound clinical judgement across everyday general dentistry
• Easy to work with: warm with patients, steady with the team
• Experience with CEREC for same-day dentistry (preferable but not essential)
• CBCT licence, or willingness to obtain one
• A genuinely broad case mix across all ages, from everyday general care through to implants and Invisalign
• No KPIs or financial targets: how you build your day and your patient relationships is up to you
• Uncapped, performance-based commission: what you earn scales with what you bill, some of our dentists bill well into seven figures a year
• Dentist-owned, so you keep your clinical autonomy with the backing of a multi-practice network, plus mentorship from more than 70 clinicians and study clubs streamed live and recorded for playback
• Backed by a group marketing team bringing new patients through the door, so you're stepping into a modern, high-performing practice, not building one from scratch
• Right in the middle of Kingscliff: an easy walk to the beach, Pearl Street cafes and the weekend markets. A proper coastal life without stepping back on your career
