Austin Health is the major provider of tertiary health services, health professional education and research across three campuses in the north-east of Melbourne and statewide. We have a highly engaged, diverse and collaborative workforce that is unified by our goal to help people live healthy and fulfilled lives.
About the Department
Austin Health is the State-wide provider of liver transplant services for Victoria, Tasmania and parts of southern New South Wales. The Austin Liver Transplant Unit also provides surgical services for paediatric liver transplants performed at the Royal Children's Hospital. The unit performed its first transplant in 1988 and continues to grow and build a reputation for excellence.
About the role
An exciting opportunity exists for an enthusiastic, suitably experienced, and passionate individual to join the liver transplant unit at Austin Health. Specifically, we are seeking a Registered Nurse to join our out-of-hours transplant coordination roster working as a Liver Transplant Nursing Coordinator. This position supports the 24/7 operation of the liver transplant unit and in doing so provides time-critical expert care to facilitate this life-saving service for the Victorian community.
The after-hours roster for transplant coordination is currently covered by multiple people. Each out of hours period will be paid as a short shift (4.30pm pm), followed by a period of on-call until handover the following day at 8.30am. All hours worked outside of (4.30pm pm), will be remunerated as recall. This role is a fully remote role, and individuals are not required to complete their shift on site at Austin.
The successful candidate will complete a comprehensive training program, working alongside a senior Liver Transplant Nursing Coordinator for a minimum of eight to twelve weeks. During this period, the successful candidate will be required to complete a minimum of hours per week initially in business hours Monday-Friday (8.30pm - 5.00pm), progressing to some weekend on-call cover from 8.30pm - 5.00pm hours working alongside a coordinator and finally shadowing short shifts overnight in preparation for solo coordination.
About you
We are seeking flexible, solution-focussed candidates who have a demonstrated ability to remain calm under pressure, who will be able to support time-critical decision-making and arrange all the components of transplant surgery from end-to-end. Working out of regular business hours, this role requires candidates to be able to work independently and appropriately escalate to and work with senior medical and surgical staff.
To be successful in this role, you'll bring with you:
- Bachelor of Nursing or equivalent with current AHPRA registration
- Post-Graduate qualification in a relevant area/specialty
- Experience working in a relevant senior clinical role with demonstrated clinical acumen and evidence of strong clinical decision-making
- The ability to negotiate and manage complex logistics and quickly and easily respond to changing circumstances
- To make evidence-based and safe decisions in a time-critical manner, using established protocols and procedures
- Highly developed communication skills that enable you to build relationships with internal and external stakeholders and convey critical information clearly and succinctly
- Resilience and the ability to remain calm under pressure

- Greater take-home pay through generous salary packaging, for living expenses, meals, and holiday accommodation.
