Thinking about leaving the city, moving closer to the coast and enjoying a better work-life balance?

Gorilla Jobs is working with a well‑established independent dental practice in Barnstaple, North Devon, looking for an Associate Dentist to join its friendly and experienced team.

This is an opportunity to combine a rewarding dental career with the North Devon lifestyle- beaches, coastal walks, countryside and a slower pace of life, without compromising on your clinical career.

The practice offers an established patient base, predominantly private and Denplan dentistry and a relaxed, low‑pressure environment focused on quality patient care.

• 3–5 days per week
• Potential pathway towards partnership and practice ownership for the right long‑term candidate
• Predominantly private & Denplan patients
• Established patient book with an existing waiting list
• Small NHS commitment, primarily children
• Full clinical autonomy
• Relaxed, friendly working environment
• Broad range of general dentistry
• Sponsorship can be considered for the right candidate

This is a long‑established three‑surgery independent practice with a strong local reputation and loyal patient base.

The team provides a broad range of dentistry including:

• Restorative dentistry
• Composites
• Invisalign
• Endodontics
• Extractions
• Implant restoration
• Preventative dentistry
• Hygiene and maintenance

The patient base includes families, professionals, retirees and an increasing number of younger couples moving into the area.

• GDC-registered Dentist
• Ideally 1–2 years' post‑qualification experience
• Comfortable working independently
• Strong communication skills
• Ethical and patient‑focused
• Friendly and approachable
• Someone looking for a long‑term opportunity and good team fit

For the right person, this could be more than a career move - it could be a lifestyle change

If you're tired of city life, long commutes or high‑pressure dentistry, North Devon offers the opportunity to build a career somewhere with beautiful coastline, countryside and a genuinely slower pace of life.

And for someone looking beyond their next associate role, there is the potential for a long‑term pathway towards partnership and eventually practice ownership.
