Become an Educational Supervisor in North East and South West London
We are inviting applications from experienced dentists across the North East and South West areas of London who are passionate about developing the next generation of dental professionals. As an Educational Supervisor (ES), you will play a vital role in supporting a Foundation Dentist through their first year in practice — helping them grow in confidence, clinical skill, and professional judgement.
There are two programmes available:
• 12-month Dental Foundation Training Programme – the Foundation Dentist is based with you full-time in practice for one year.
• 24-month Dental Foundation Programme – the Foundation Dentist is placed under your supervision for two days a week over two years, spending the remainder of their time in a hospital or community setting.
This rewarding role offers opportunities to enhance your own teaching and leadership skills, contribute to the quality of postgraduate dental education, and join a strong network of supportive colleagues across London.
