What are the benefits of becoming a Locum Doctor?
Take a break from your regular routine
A locum job is a great circuit breaker, working in a new location can be refreshing. A locum break often means you return reinvigorated with a new enthusiasm for your profession.
Be your own boss
You can schedule your own holidays, plan locum work around family and earn what you need, including extra hours to pay for a one-off cost like a holiday.
Expand your horizons
Create memorable, life-changing experiences with locum work in new areas from capital cities to regional areas or rural towns and outback communities.
Re-skill
When did you last treat a patient from first presentation to discharge, or deliver a baby? Have your emergency and minor operation skills been underutilised? Locum work reconnects you with front-line medical skills.
Build your network
Locum work allows you to meet new colleagues far from home and offers an opportunity to pick up some new contacts, skills and knowledge from outside of your usual circles.
Gain a broader spectrum of experience
Booking locum work will allow you to gain experience from a wide range of organisations, teams and specialties. All beneficial for career progression.
Share your expertise
Bring your special clinical skills or knowledge to locums in regional areas that might not otherwise have access to such expert training or advice. Teaching will allow you to leave a greater legacy.
Contribute
Remember, the reason a hospital or practice hires you as a locum is because they have a desperate need. You’re providing an invaluable service to the community.

Indigenous Locum Doctor Jobs
While it is well-known that locum doctors receive higher rates and greater flexibility to work when and where they want, there are many other benefits that make work as a locum doctor a truly rewarding experience.
We help doctors find locum jobs all over the region, but perhaps the most unique and rewarding experience we offer is the chance to practice Indigenous health in some of our most remote communities. Without our locum services, many of these communities would be without adequate medical care.
