Locum Dentist We're looking for a Locum Dentist to partner with us on a self-employed basis at our established Bupa Dental Care practice in Mold, Flintshire. Locum Dentist opportunity details • Day rate available • Up to 5 days per week - 8:30 - 17:30 • 30 UDAs per day About Bupa Mold Established with 6 surgeries, modern working environment, fully computerised, digital x-ray and Apex Locator. Experienced longstanding associates in situ, supported by a team of fully-trained qualified professional support staff. Our experienced team includes dentists with a special interest in dental implants and prosthodontics. We are located in central mold opposite Mold bus station. Our refurbished practice is bright and comfortable, and we have a practice coordinator. About Mold: Tucked beneath the breathtaking Clwydian Range, Mold is a vibrant market town that's bursting with charm, culture, and countryside magic. Whether you're hiking up Moel Famau for panoramic views and a peek at the historic Jubilee Tower or strolling through Loggerheads Country Park with its scenic riverside trails and limestone cliffs, nature lovers are spoiled for choice. Culture buffs can catch world-class performances at Theatr Clwyd, a powerhouse of Welsh theatre since 1976. Love a good treasure hunt? The Afonwen Antique & Craft Centre is an Aladdin's cave of vintage finds and handmade crafts. And don't miss Mold Market-one of the largest street markets in North Wales, held twice a week with over 70 stalls of local produce, crafts, and treats. With festivals, friendly pubs, and a strong sense of community. But here's the kicker: Mold is super commutable! Just 25 mins to Chester via the A55 or direct bus routes Only 24 mins to Wrexham on the A541 or a quick bus ride Easy access to Denbigh, Holywell, and even the North Wales coast thanks to great road and bus links Mold isn't just a place to live-it's a place to thrive. Why we're different: As the only corporate dental provider in the UK not backed by private equity, we're in a unique position. We're committed to the UK dental industry for the long-term - both private and NHS - and are ready to treat not just today's patients, but generations to come. Furthermore, as a limited liability company Bupa has no shareholders, so we're able to focus 100% on delivering a great service for our customers. We are run commercially to ensure we remain competitive, but Bupa reinvests 100% of its profits to help provide better care for patients across the world. To discuss the opportunity and your options available for this position, contact our Clinical Resourcing Business Partner: Rachael Wallis To find out more about working with us, find us on LinkedIn , Facebook and Instagram . Here you'll be welcomed. We champion diversity and we understand the importance of people representing the communities and customers we serve. You'll find an inclusive environment where you can be yourself and where everyone is driven by the same purpose - helping people live longer, healthier, happier lives and making a better world.

This will involve working with strategic places identified in the South, Southwest, and North of the diocese to implement the vision to establish satellite training centres. Initially this will focus on BPP (Bishop s Permission to Preach); BCM programmes (Bishop s Commission for Mission); and introductory theology and discipleship programmes.

This will involve working collaboratively with the Mission and Discipleship Enabler, the Young Vocations Team (team under development), and the Racial Justice Advisor, alongside other team members and also work with clergy to understand specific contexts of training needs arising.

Part of the work will also be to support specific CYF workers including, where helpful, visiting them on site to encourage and advise them in their work and put them in communication with the network for mutual ongoing support. It will involve keeping up to date with the national initiatives for CYF to facilitate a connected approach. An important development in this aspect of the role will be to help implement a vision for more collaborative work with the Education Team to promote and help facilitate close working between churches and schools across the diocese.
