Dentistry is a profession that people enter into with the intention of providing excellent care to their patients, but there are a lot of other factors that influence how well dentists experience their jobs.
This flyer is the first step in understanding dental candidates’ specifications of what they would like to see in a job offer.
We’ve brought together insights from dental candidates across the United Kingdom and Ireland, to provide a clear and concise overview of what they expect from their job role.
There are several significant factors that play a role in why the dental industry has extreme difficulty in recruiting and retaining talented staff. This report shows the true pace of pay across the United Kingdom and Ireland. Also included are insights Practice Owners can use to make more strategic decisions around compensation and work styles.
We believe these insights will help practices understand how to attract, retain and develop their dental workforce but also for candidates to understand what the current market rate is.
