Are you a Specialist Surgeon looking to be part of something intentional from day one? JR is supporting our client as they prepare to launch a brand-new, purpose-built emergency and referral hub North of Melbourne.
This isn't just another hospital; it’s a philosophy-driven practice designed to bridge the gap between General Practice, ECC, and Specialist Referral under one unified banner. If you value a culture where kindness and sustainable working are as important as clinical excellence, we want to hear from you.

- 24/7 Support: A dedicated, skilled ECC team ensures your surgical patients receive high-standard continuous care while you are off-shift.
- Growth: Opportunity to shape future intern and residency pathways as the service expands.
The Package: Designed for People

- Financial: Highly competitive salary package commensurate with specialist experience + Relocation support for interstate or international candidates.
- Work-Life Balance: Flexible work arrangements and protective rostering—they design the service around your life.
