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 Mental Health Division
In the Mental Health Division, we provide care and services through a broad range of general and speciality mental health services to meet the needs of consumers and carers throughout Victoria. These include:
- Comprehensive inpatient and community mental health care for adult residents of northeastern Melbourne, including subspecialist care for eating and substance use disorders.
- Services for families, children and youth, including specialist bed-based care for children, adolescents, new parents and families.
- Hospital-based services to meet the needs of inpatients and for consumers presenting in crisis to the emergency department.
- Specialist mental health care for all Victorians to support families, and those suffering from neuropsychiatric disorders or psychological trauma.
About the role
This Psychiatry Registrar role provides access to the range of training rotations available at Austin Health for junior doctors seeking a career in psychiatry. As there is a wide range of clinical training experiences available, this position would suit candidates who are either:
- A Stage 3 accredited trainee with the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists (RANZCP), pursuing generalist training, or an Advanced Training Certificate without specific mandatory rotation requirements other than in Adult Psychiatry
- A Stage 2 accredited trainee who has completed mandatory rotations in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry
- A prevocational medical officer at PGY3 level or higher who is considering a specialist career in psychiatry
- An international medical graduate or specialist international medical graduate currently registered to work in Australia.
Please note: Prospective Stage 1 RANZCP Registrars should apply to the 'Stage 1 Registrar' advertisement in May-July annually. Applications for Stage 1 made though this advertised position will not be considered.
All training posts in the Mental Health Division are accredited with the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists (RANZCP) Postgraduate Psychiatry Training Program. Austin Health will commit to provide all the necessary training experiences and support accredited trainees through the generalist Fellowship Program. Unaccredited registrar applicants will be provided with a one-year contract with a view to renewal annually.
The Psychiatry Registrar is responsible for the assessment and care of consumers under the management of the Mental Health Division. Placements may occur anywhere across the Mental Health Division, which incorporates all campuses of Austin Health, as well as nearby community services. Every effort is made to place registrars into posts that match their experience and training needs.
All Psychiatry Registrars are accountable to the Medical Director of the Mental Health Division. They will have the opportunity to work collaboratively with the broader teams of the Mental Health Division, under the supervision of a Consultant Psychiatrist. Registrars are required to perform the duties of this position efficiently to the standards of the Division, including participating in the Austin Health performance appraisal program, after hours on-call roster and weekly education program.

To be successful in this role, you must:
- Be a registered Medical Practitioner with Australian Registration (AHPRA registration) with at least two years of postgraduate experience
- Have had training and experience in psychiatry, appropriate to your career stage
- Be able to work across our campuses in Heidelberg, and participate in our out-of-hours roster
