Job Description
You already know your way around theatre. Now find somewhere worth staying.
n We’re working with a well-established private hospital in Newcastle, and they’re looking to add experienced Perioperative RNs to their team.
n If you’ve got 3+ years of perioperative experience and you’re confident in Scrub/Scout, Anaesthetics or PACU, this could be a really good next move.
n And no, you don’t need to be the nurse who can do absolutely everything.
n The team is open to nurses with strong experience in their preferred area, with opportunities to continue developing across the broader perioperative department.
What makes this theatre worth a look?
n This is a sizeable private hospital with a genuinely busy perioperative service — multiple theatres, alongside endoscopy, Cath Lab and ICU.
n That means variety without the feeling that you’re constantly starting from scratch.
n Depending on your area, you could be exposed to a broad mix of surgical specialties and complex cases, working alongside experienced surgeons, anaesthetists and theatre teams.
n The department is well established, the equipment is modern, and there’s enough clinical variety to keep things interesting.
The Newcastle part matters too.
n You get the benefits of working in a major private hospital without being stuck in the middle of Sydney.
n Think beaches, coastal walks, good coffee, a genuinely great food scene and a much more manageable commute.
n Newcastle gives you plenty to do outside of work — without feeling like you need to spend your entire weekend recovering from the working week.
You’ll suit this role if you have:
n
n
- 3+ years' perioperative nursing experience
n
- Full working rights for Australia
n
- Current AHPRA registration
n
n
What’s on offer?
n
n
- Competitive remuneration + super
n
- Wellbeing initiatives and lifestyle perks
n
- Discounted private health insurance
n
- Paid parental leave
n
- Novated leasing options
n

If you're an experienced Scrub Scout, Anaesthetics or PACU RN who wants good theatre experience, a solid team and a lifestyle outside of work, this is one worth talking about.
