  • Specialist registration in anaesthesia with the Medical Board of Australia (AHPRA), or eligibility to obtain it: UK CCT with FRCA or Irish CSCST with FCAI holders can apply through the Expedited Specialist Pathway
  • Ability to be credentialed by the hospital before commencing

  • A commitment to high-quality, culturally safe patient care

Highly Desirable

  • Previous experience in an acute or trauma teaching hospital
  • Proven ability to work collegiately with clinicians, nursing staff and managers
  • Clinical leadership skills and the ability to facilitate multidisciplinary teamwork
  • A clinical or academic appointment
  • Interest in providing care for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities

What’s on Offer for You?

  • Relocation support
  • Visa sponsorship
  • Fast route to Australian specialist registration for eligible UK and Irish-trained anaesthetists
