Advanced Surgical Practice. Regional Leadership. Exceptional Clinical Impact.

Santé Recruitment is partnering with Central Queensland Health to identify a Senior Staff Specialist or Staff Specialist in Obstetrics and Gynaecology.

- Leadership Influence:



Contribute significantly to clinical governance, departmental strategy, and the continuous improvement of women’s health services across the regional network.
- Regional Lifestyle: Enjoy a rewarding career without sacrificing work-life balance. Central Queensland offers a unique lifestyle with excellent affordability, community warmth, and access to unique natural landscapes.

What you will bring to the service:

- Expertise: Extensive experience in high-quality O&G; service delivery, including the confident management of complex and emergency presentations.
- Collaborative Spirit: A commitment to multidisciplinary teamwork, spanning midwifery, anaesthetics, paediatrics, and community outreach teams.

Exceptional Remuneration & Benefits:
