Trainee jobs in Birmingham

Job Overview

This isn’t your typical dental office. At August House Dental Practice, we pride ourselves on delivering a five-star patient experience. We are looking for a high-energy "front of house" star who wears many hats. This is a unique hybrid role designed for someone who wants to master the business of dentistry—from the first click on social media to the patient's clinical care in the surgery.

If you are looking to kickstart your career as a Dental Nurse while utilizing your creative flair for social media and your professional administrative skills, we want to provide you with the platform to shine.

Key Responsibilities

- Clinical Support (Trainee Nurse): Support our clinical team by learning chairside assistance, understanding sterilization and decontamination protocols, and ensuring patient comfort during treatments.

- Front of House: Act as the face of the practice—managing the daily calendar, scheduling appointments via Carestack, and handling patient inquiries with a professional flair.

- Content Creation: Capture high-quality "behind the scenes" photos and short-form videos (Reels/TikToks) showcasing our services and team.

- Platform Management: Post regularly to Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok, engaging with our community and staying ahead of digital trends.

Requirements & Skills

- Career Ambition: A genuine desire to train as a Dental Nurse. We will support the right candidate through their qualification journey.

- Creative Flair: Proficiency in mobile editing apps (CapCut, VN) and basic design (Canva). You must have examples of social media content you have created.

- Admin Excellence: Previous experience in a receptionist or admin role is preferred. Proficiency in Google Suite is essential; knowledge of Carestack is a major plus.

- Communication: Exceptional written and verbal skills with a professional yet personable manner.

Working Arrangement & Benefits

- The Split: A dual-responsibility role with "Creative Windows" during the shift to focus entirely on media production.

- Support & Mentorship: We invest in you. We provide clinical mentorship for your nursing qualification and high-end tools (smartphones, ring lights, etc.) to level up our digital content.

- Schedule: We are open 8 am – 8 pm, 5 days a week and Saturdays. We offer flexible shift patterns to ensure work-life balance.
