Brisbane, Queensland, Australia Head Medical Full time

Seeking a Consultant Adult Psychiatrist for the beautiful Sunshine Coast in Australia.

  • Fantastic lifestyle. It's called the Sunshine Coast for a reason – it's never cold.
  • Enjoy working in a modern new state of the art hospital.
  • Excellent remuneration package up to AUD$447k dependent upon experience
  • Additional oncall and recall allowances
  • Feel like you are on an eternal holiday

The Role
This is your opportunity to join this emerging tertiary health service undergoing rapid expansion in the wonderful geographical environs of the Sunshine Coast.

Sunshine Coast Hospital and Health Service are seeking exceptional consultants for permanent Adult Psychiatry positions in both In-patient and community locations. These roles will support the expansion of both new and existing services. We are seeking interest from consultant Psychiatrists with an ability to lead the team, develop the service, and support the needs of the training registrars within these settings.

Positions are available in the Inpatient Team and the Community Team.

Requirements
Applicants should be registered (or eligible for registration) as a specialist with the Medical Board of Australia and be a Fellow of the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists (FRANZCP) or equivalent as an overseas trained specialist who has completed their training in either the UK, Ireland, Canada, USA or New Zealand.

The Medical Board of Australia implemented a new expedited pathway to specialist registration in December 2024, eliminating the need for a specialist assessment with a specialist medical college for those with an accepted qualification in Psychiatry. The only accepted qualifications are MRCPsych and a Certificate of Completion of Training (CCT) after 2007. Now is the time to apply for a new role.

The Hospital
Sunshine Coast Hospital and Health Service (SCHHS) has embarked on a significant transformation journey with the opening of the Sunshine Coast University Hospital (SCUH) with further planned growth.

Sunshine Coast University Hospital (SCUH) is a tertiary, teaching hospital servicing all parts of the Sunshine Coast and Gympie regions. SCUH saw its first patients on 21 March 2017 and opened with about 450 beds, with plans to grow to 738 beds by 2021. Services and capacity at SCUH will continue to develop over the coming years.

The Location
Located about 100 km north of Brisbane, the Sunshine Coast is well-known for its pristine beaches, scenic drives and unspoiled national parks. From the ocean to the hinterland, restaurants in this region take advantage of fresh local produce. Explore beautiful Fraser Island, try surfing or swimming with whales.

With an abundance of primary and secondary schools, technical colleges and a university, there's something for everyone.
