Locum Dentist – South Adelaide Region
The Opportunity
We are Australia’s largest Dental Services Organisation, supporting almost 800 dentists to provide care to over 1 million patients each year.
With a vast geographical footprint across 170 locations, the Bupa Dental Network offers locum dentists the opportunity to work in a variety of settings, from state-of-the-art city clinics to regional practices.
We’re currently seeking expressions of interest from Dentists keen to practice across a cluster of Adelaide clinics for short term and long-term assignments. If you’re interested in travelling a bit further, we can also support FIFO arrangements for any of our regional practices across Australia.
