State Clinical Director – Urgent Care | Victoria & Tasmania

A rare opportunity to shape the future of Urgent Care across two states

What if your next clinical leadership role gave you the opportunity to influence how Urgent Care is delivered across an entire state, all while remaining connected to patient care? We are looking for an experienced and forward-thinking State Clinical Director to provide senior clinical leadership across 15 Urgent Care Centres throughout Victoria and Tasmania.

This is a newly created, high-impact leadership opportunity within the growing Urgent Care Network, based in Melbourne. You’ll play a key role in shaping clinical standards, developing medical leaders and creating a consistent, high-quality experience for patients and clinicians across the network.

Importantly, this isn't a role that takes you away from medicine. You’ll remain clinically active as an Urgent Care GP, combining hands-on patient care with dedicated non-clinical leadership time throughout the week.

- Set and embed high clinical standards across the network
- Lead clinical governance, quality improvement and patient safety initiatives
- Provide senior clinical guidance for complex presentations and escalations
- Help shape clinical policies, protocols and models of care
- Strengthen workforce capability and clinical culture
- Identify opportunities to improve patient outcomes and service delivery
- Work closely with operational and executive leadership to drive continuous improvement





Why This Role?

This is an chance to move beyond the traditional boundaries of general practice and have a genuine influence on the future of Urgent Care. You'll have the scale of a senior leadership position, the variety of a multi-site environment and the clinical satisfaction of continuing to see patients.

You'll be joining a growing model of care that sits between general practice and emergency departments, providing patients with timely access to care for urgent, non-life-threatening conditions.

About You

We're looking for a senior clinician who combines strong clinical judgement with genuine leadership capability.

You will have

- Unrestricted AHPRA registration

- Strong communication, mentoring and stakeholder management skills
- The ability to influence clinicians and lead across multiple locations
