### Job summary

Manx Care is seeking an experienced and inspirational senior dental leader to join us as Clinical Director for Dental Services on a 6-month limited-term appointment. This pivotal leadership role provides clinical, professional and operational oversight across Hillside Dental Practice and the Community Dental Service, with a clear focus on service stabilisation, recovery and transformation.

### Main duties of the job

This is a unique opportunity to influence the future of NHS salaried dental services on the Isle of Man, working within a close-knit health and care system committed to high-quality patient care, continuous improvement and integrated service delivery. In return, Manx Care offers a supportive professional environment, opportunities for development and free parking at many sites. We are looking for a senior dental professional with substantial leadership experience, a strong commitment to clinical governance and quality improvement, and the ability to lead teams through change with confidence, compassion and clarity. As a visible and influential leader, you will build trusted relationships, drive service performance and support the delivery of safe, sustainable and accessible dental services for the community.

By joining Manx Care on the Isle of Man, you'll enjoy the opportunity to work in a healthcare system that is similar to, but separate from, the NHS, offering a refreshing change from many of the pressures and demands experienced elsewhere in the UK. We are committed to supporting your professional development through a wide range of learning and continuing professional development (CPD) opportunities, including access to our well-equipped Education and Training Centre. Many of our sites offer free on-site parking, and we provide generous relocation packages for the majority of our roles to help make your move as seamless as possible. Beyond work, the Isle of Man offers an exceptional quality of life, with stunning landscapes, a safe and welcoming community and excellent schools. Residents also benefit from lower personal tax rates than those found in many other European jurisdictions, helping you make the most of your earnings.
