Where you’ll be working
You will be working across two hospitals, the largest major hospital in North West Tasmania, and a nearby community hospital.

The major hospital is a 160-bed regional trauma centre, and the community hospital is a 100-bed facility.

Both Emergency Departments see approximately 30,000 presentations per annum, and have excellent access to 24-hour pathology and 24-hour on-call radiology services.

The hospital is ACEM accredited, and accredited by both the RACGP and the ACRRM for advanced skills training in Emergency.

The hospital caters to the emergency resuscitation, surgery and intensive care of most trauma patients in the North West Tasmanian and King Island communities. 

This is a part-time position, shared with an existing Co-Clinical Director of Emergency Medicine.

As a Co-Clinical Director you will oversee and facilitate the overall function of the Emergency Department in collaboration with the  existing Co-Clinical Director of Emergency Medicine, Executive Director of Medical Services, and Nursing Director of Operations.

You will manage the operational performance of the unit and provide high quality medical governance, holding direct line management and supervision of medical officers.

You will be supported through the development and implementation of clinical strategies for continuous quality improvement, ensuring the maintenance of best-practice and evidence-based standards in clinical care.

You will have the opportunity to chair multidisciplinary care plans for a complex casemix, providing advice and fostering a collaborative learning environment.

You will also have opportunities to conduct and manage research initiatives, outreach educational programs, as well as continued professional development activities.

Where you’ll be living
With Tasmania being easily one of the most idyllic and picturesque sites of Australia, you will be living in a thriving community that values nature and adventure.

This region of Tasmania is known to have the cleanest air in the world, and is home to Australia’s largest area of temperate rainforest as well as coastal and river regions that have been important to Indigenous Tasmanians for tens of thousands of years.

With all the benefits of a city lifestyle, affordable housing, easy access to beaches, rivers, lakes and national parks, North West Tasmania is an enviable location offering a beautiful environment and laid back lifestyle.

You’ll have access to seaside villages, distilleries, caves, mountains, waterfalls and art deco architecture in this bustling sea-port city, with no shortage of sights to see or things to do.

This stunning region is only a 3-hour drive from Hobart and a 35-minute drive from Davenport.
