The Candidate

The successful applicant will be a Fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons (or equivalent), with specialist registration in cardiothoracic surgery and substantial postgraduate training in both paediatric and adult cardiothoracic surgery. Key attributes include:

- At least 1–2 years’ subspecialty training in paediatric cardiac surgery in recognised units.
