The Position
This is an outstanding opportunity for a skilled and dedicated General Medicine Consultant to join a progressive and supportive Department of Medicine. You will manage a broad and stimulating clinical caseload across inpatient and outpatient settings, including the Acute Ambulatory team. Responsibilities encompass providing high-quality clinical care, mentoring junior medical staff, contributing to education and training, engaging in quality improvement, audit, research, and service planning activities. The role involves active participation in patient safety initiatives and collaboration with multidisciplinary teams.
The Hospital
This 236-bed regional hospital serves a population of over 180,000 across the surrounding region. It is currently undergoing a $250 million redevelopment to add 112 inpatient beds and expand outpatient and support services. The facility acts as a major referral centre, supported by a network of rural hospitals and strong collaboration with core specialties. The Department of Medicine provides care for patients over 16 years old with a broad range of complex medical conditions requiring ongoing inpatient, ward-based treatment.
The Location
Located in tropical North Queensland, this vibrant regional centre offers a relaxed blend of coastal and rural living. The area is just a short flight from a major metropolitan city and close to world-class natural attractions such as the Great Barrier Reef and Whitsunday Islands. The tropical climate supports an active outdoor lifestyle with beautiful beaches, national parks, and marine environments nearby. Families are well-supported with a wide choice of quality schools and excellent sporting and recreational facilities.
Essential criteria
- Medical degree from a registered tertiary institution.
- Specialist registration (or eligibility) with the Medical Board of Australia in General Medicine or relevant subspecialty.
- Fellowship or eligibility for Fellowship of the Royal Australasian College of Physicians (RACP), including via the substantial comparability pathway.
