Provide senior leadership to our administrative and reception team, including workforce planning, performance management and development
Champion the patient experience, monitoring feedback and reputation, and identifying opportunities for growth
Ensure compliance with relevant legislation, Medicare/private billing requirements and accreditation standards
Partner with the Directors on strategic planning and translating this into operational targets and continuous improvement initiatives
About You
You're calm, professional and patient-focused, with a reliable and adaptable approach.
You're comfortable rolling up your sleeves across both clinical and administrative functions when needed,



and you take confidentiality, safety and continuous learning seriously.
You have:
Demonstrated experience in practice management, operations management, or senior administrative leadership - ideally within healthcare or a specialist medical practice
Strong financial management and analytical skills, including budgeting and performance reporting
Excellent leadership, communication and stakeholder engagement skills
The ability to work autonomously and exercise sound strategic judgement
Experience in ophthalmology, optometry or specialist medical practice highly regarded
Working knowledge of Medicare, DVA and private billing processes is a bonus

Work alongside a compassionate, collaborative team committed to delivering exceptional patient care
