At Lion House Dental Practice, we're looking for a dedicated Central Sterilisation Unit (CSU) Operative to support our clinical team in maintaining the highest standards of cleanliness, infection prevention and patient safety.

Our modern practice has seven surgeries and provides both NHS and private dentistry. As a CSU Operative, you'll play an essential role in ensuring dental instruments and equipment are cleaned, disinfected, sterilised and prepared safely for clinical use.

• 21 days' annual leave plus bank holidays
• Ongoing training and development opportunities
• Opportunities for career progression within the dental sector
• Additional annual leave for long service
• Free uniform and Blue Light Card eligibility
• Quarterly Values Awards and employee Voice Forum

What We're Looking For

We're looking for someone who is conscientious, dependable and takes pride in maintaining high standards of hygiene and safety.

You'll be responsible for supporting the smooth running of our sterilisation processes, ensuring instruments are handled, cleaned, sterilised, stored and tracked in line with practice procedures and infection prevention and control guidelines.

You'll ideally have:

• Excellent attention to detail and a methodical approach to work
• A strong understanding of, or willingness to learn, infection prevention and control procedures
• Good organisational skills and the ability to manage workloads efficiently
• A positive attitude and the ability to work well as part of a team
• A commitment to maintaining a clean, safe and well-organised working environment
• A willingness to undertake relevant training and follow practice protocols
