Psychology Manager - Women's Mental Health Service

Ongoing Position Hours per week
***The Royal Women's Hospital is Australia's first and largest specialist hospital dedicated to improving the health and wellbeing of newborns and women of all ages. To join the Women's is to be instrumental in forging progress towards health equity for women from ground-breaking research through to the bedside delivery of multi-disciplinary clinical care.


Creating exceptional experiences is at the heart of everything we do for our patients, their families, and our people across our specialised services within maternity, neonatal and women's health.

The Women's Mental Health Service provides mental health services to the Women's Hospital at Parkville.

Major areas of activity are in the domains of clinical work, service development and leadership of womens' mental health frameworks, along with education and training.

Clinical services cover each of the hospital's clinical streams, i.e. maternity services, gynaecology, women's cancer, and neonatal service
