The principal is seeking a general dentist, you could have recently qualified as there is plenty of support, or you may be more established in your career, in mixed practice seeking a more private focussed role, or a private dentist already; there really is plenty of scope to ensure it fits with the individual. Most important to the practice, is to find a candidate that is kind in nature and can develop excellent relationships with their patients and become part of the team.
