I am passionate about the training, development and mentoring of newly qualified dentists having had many roles within Health Education England and now NHS England Workforce Training and Education. I have previously been a trainer/educational supervisor, training programme director, regional advisor, CBD tutor, and dental faculty development advisor for a number of  years. I am currently the associate postgraduate dental Dean for foundation training for Thames Valley and Wessex and Chairman of Rodericks Dental Partners.

I joined the clinical team in 2020 as a clinical advisor, and progressed to Head of Clinical Services. I lead a team of field based Clinical Advisors who support our Dentists, Hygienists and Therapists in delivering good quality effective care to their patients, and assist them in their professional development. I continue to work in practice as a GDP, and support our Foundation Dentists in their first year.

I started in 2017 and although beginning a new career in a new country was daunting, I was warmly welcomed and helped at every step of the way. And even after five years, I’m really happy with my career path. I feel empowered to learn and pursue the areas of dentistry that I want to specialise in, such as surgical treatments and dental implants. And support is always on hand if you need it from management, who are committed to making things as easy as possible for you.

My career so far has been quite a journey. I started here in 2014, as a trainee dental nurse and this led very quickly to head nurse and line manager. I’m passionate about self-development and creating meaningful experiences, and my career is an extension of that passion. I’m always looking at ways I can improve and working every day to make progress and move forward. Rodericks Dental Partners are great because if you’re that type of person too, you’ll be welcomed with open arms.

I have a level 5 Team leader and management. NEBDN certificate in Dental nursing. I have been in dentistry for 17years - starting as a trainee nurse, leading to lead nurse, practice manager and now business development manager. My role is very much practice based and I pride myself on my great relationships with my team and the support centre.

I have 10 years’ recruitment experience, with 6 of those spent in Dental Recruitment. I currently manage a team of 16, covering initial engagement and attraction of candidates, through to compliance and on-boarding. My role at Rodericks Dental Partners is to oversee the whole recruitment lifecycle for clinical roles.

I started in 2008 at Rodericks Dental Partners, working alongside the Workforce Director drafting contracts and onboarding. I've had various roles alongside this role with the Directors of the Company in a PA role; organising meetings, taking minutes etc but throughout all my roles, I've always been involved with onboarding in some regard.
