Dental Assistant |Lumino Invercargill | Casual

Here at Lumino, we are made up of a talented team of professionals providing exceptional patient experience and dental care. With over 120 practices nationwide, we are the heart of every New Zealand community and want to ensure we are providing the highest standard of care to our patients & ongoing support to our clinicians.

We ensure that our clinicians and clinical teams receive excellent training and development opportunities, as well as modern equipment and the technology to help them grow professionally.

Lumino Invercargill is seeking a Casual Dental Assistant who can support our practice during busy periods, staff leave, and future locum coverage.

Key responsibilities include:

• Assisting clinicians chairside during procedures
• Preparing rooms, instruments, and equipment
• Maintaining high standards of infection control and sterilisation
• Welcoming patients and assisting with reception tasks when required
• Helping the team deliver an exceptional patient experience

• Proficiency in computer software applications
• Ability to work in a fast-paced environment
• Have valid NZ work rights and lives locally
