Hello. We’re Virgin Australia. And we’re back (in a big way).

We’re the airline that’s always done things a little different. Our way. The Virgin way. For us, flying is so much more than simply taking off and landing (although we understand that is quite important). It’s about going the extra mile, in the air and on the ground, to create authentic experiences that put our guests firmly at the heart of everything we do.

**What you’ll be doing**:
As an Aviation Medicine Specialist, you will be responsible for providing specialist aeromedical operational support to the Group Medical department and its staff. You will also undertake clinical duties in support of the daily functions of the in-house medical team, providing medical advice and case management.

This role will report through to our Group Medical Officer and will predominantly be a Monday to Friday role with an on-call component built in.

As an Aviation Medicine Specialist, you will be responsible for:

- Providing Designated Aviation Medical Examiner (DAME) advice to management and the flight crew community, including fitness to fly assessments, as per CASA Part 67 Medical standards and certification.
- Act as a Medical Review Officer (MRO) for all drug and alcohol related issues relevant to the company DAMP, complying with all aspects of CASR Part 99
- Complete day-to-day oversight and medical case management of team member fitness for duty cases, including occupational assessments, and provision of fitness to work advice as required.
- Provide medical advice to the company/safety team as required including public health advice, regulatory risk assessment and aeromedical policy development.
- Work with the clinical team on passenger health form approvals (MEDAs).
- Work with the clinical team on pre-employment medical assessment reviews.
- Engage in quality assurance activities within the department.
- Participate in the on-call roster, including nights, weekends and public holidays.

**You’ll be great in this role if you**:

- Medical Degree
- Current unrestricted medical registration in Australia.
- Minimum 2 years’ experience as a DAME (Designated Aviation Medical Examiner) under Part 67 of the Civil Aviation Safety Regulations
- Fellowship of a relevant medical college eg: FRACGP, FAFOEM
- Postgraduate Diploma or Masters in Aviation Medicine would be beneficial but not essential
- Excellent communication skills, strong leadership skills and attention to detail
- Exceptional stakeholder engagement skills

**What you’ll get from us**

We’re committed to looking after you, with some of the best benefits and conditions in the industry - including (but not limited to)
- Heavily discounted air travel for you and your loved ones (including $1000 worth of travel credits per year)
- Flexible working arrangements (including work hours and work from home)
- Discounts on travel insurance, car hire, accommodation and experiences worldwide
- Discounted Virgin Australia Lounge membership
- Wellness support, including the _betterme_ digital wellbeing platform
- A comprehensive Employee Assistance Program, which offers confidential coaching and support from qualified professionals for all aspects of life - physical, mental, social and financial
