Yes, with a strong emphasis on personal development the opportunities at Devonshire House are endless. We have nurses who have become receptionists, nurses who have retrained as Hygienists and receptionists who now work in our finance team.

Whether you fancy a new challenge in a different department or progressing within your team, come and join us at Devonshire House and see where your journey takes you. Over the years many of our current Managers have progressed through their teams from non managerial positions to leadership roles.

Yes, as a Specialist Dental Practice it goes without saying that dentistry is the heart of our business and the majority of our team work in clinical roles. However, as a large practice with a team of over 80 people, our practice is structured with it’s own independent business functions requiring a cross section of skills.

As a provider of Specialist Dentistry, Dental Education and with our own Dental Laboratory, a career at Devonshire House means joining any one of our teams, with lots of opportunity to progress. You can even change direction completely into a different function if that’s in your sights. We have receptionists who have become financial controllers, nurses who have retrained as Hygienists and many of our Managers have progressed their careers with us starting off in non managerial roles.

We strongly value the importance of training at Devonshire House and encourage and support our team in their personal development. If you have a strong interest in a particular training area or a specific training need we’re right behind you all the way. Training at Devonshire House is ongoing and we use a mix of online and face to face courses with visiting specialist trainers and our training and development continues daily as we mentor each other sharing our knowledge and experience.

All new team members have a personally designed induction programme to introduce them to as many areas of the practice as possible. Feeling part of the team from day one is important and by putting names to faces and learning how the practice works is of paramount importance.
