Associate Pay Specialist

Envisage Dental are a fast-growing dental group founded in 2014 by husband-and-wife team Harry Gill and Dr Sandy Dau. We are a rapidly scaling business within the exciting and expanding private dental sector, a constantly evolving consumer healthcare space.

We are a privately owned group with a clear focus on the premium provision of high-quality private dental services through our practices across England. We are proud to be the first national dental group to achieve B Corp certification, reflecting our commitment to doing business in a responsible, transparent and values-led way.

As our acquisition programme continues to grow, we are now looking for an Associate Pay Specialist (M&A) to support a key integration project over the next 12 months. While this role is offered as a fixed-term contract, there is strong potential for it to become permanent as the business continues to expand.

This is a critical role within our M&A integration process. You will ensure that 100% of associates joining Envisage through acquisition are fully transitioned onto Envisage contract templates and our associate pay model before each acquisition completes.

You will act as the main point of contact for associate contract and pay matters during the pre‑completion and early integration phase, working closely with Commercial, Finance, People and practice leadership teams.

Your working location will be 2 days per week based in our Basingstoke office, with the remainder home‑based. Equipment for home working will be provided. Occasional travel to practices may be required.

• Hands‑on experience using dental systems such as SOE, with confidence navigating data, reports and associate pay information
