Medical Capability & Preparedness Coordinator

Location: Perth, Western Australia
Employment Type: Full Time
Reports to: Emergency Manager
Salary: Competitive remuneration package commensurate with qualifications and experience.

Who We Are

Risk Support Group is a bespoke security and risk management company serving the needs of private clients and select organisations. We use multiple professional capabilities to support our client's needs, including but not limited to physical/technical security and monitoring, intelligence and investigations, surveillance, logistics support, and emergency management.

Take Your Medical Experience in a New Direction

Are you an experienced paramedic, emergency nurse or medical professional ready to make a broader impact?

Ready to step away from FIFO rosters and shift work while continuing to use your clinical experience in a meaningful way?

You understand what happens during a medical emergency. You also know that an effective response depends on what happens beforehand: clear plans, capable people, suitable equipment, reliable systems and access to the right medical providers.

As our Medical Capability & Preparedness Coordinator, you will use your clinical experience to build and improve medical preparedness across our organisation and the diverse client environments we support. You will also coordinate specialist medical providers and services where additional expertise, resources or clinical capability is required.

This is not a traditional frontline clinical role. It is an opportunity to step into greater autonomy and use your experience to develop systems, build capability and improve how an organisation prepares for medical incidents and emergencies.

The Opportunity





Reporting to the Emergency Manager, you will oversee medical preparedness across workplaces, private client environments, residences, travel, events, marine activities and remote locations.

You will develop response plans, improve systems, coordinate training, maintain medical equipment readiness and coordinate specialist medical providers across a range of operational environments including workplaces, private residences, travel, events, marine activities and remote locations.

A key part of the role is understanding the limits of internal capability, identifying when specialist support is required and ensuring the right clinical resources are engaged. You will oversee the broader medical preparedness function while coordinating a network of providers to deliver specialist services where needed.

You will not be expected to personally deliver every medical service. An significant part of the role is recognising when specialist support is needed, engaging the right providers and ensuring individual services support the wider medical capability.

This position offers a practical mix of planning, systems development, training, provider coordination, research and operational support.

What You Will Do

Build Medical Capability and Preparedness





You will take an organisation-wide view of medical readiness and turn identified needs into practical improvements.

You will:

- Assess medical preparedness across people, plans, equipment, systems and providers
- Develop and maintain medical response plans, procedures and practical tools
- Establish appropriate first aid and medical readiness standards for different environments
- Identify capability gaps and develop realistic improvement plans
- Integrate medical preparedness into emergency management and business continuity arrangements
- Prepare clear medical advice, reports and recommendations for leadership
- Use lessons from incidents, audits and exercises to improve capability

Develop Training, Exercises and Response Plans

You will help ensure people are prepared and confident to respond when required.

You will:

- Develop a structured medical training program aligned with operational risks
- Deliver practical first response and emergency care training where appropriate
- Design realistic medical scenarios and emergency exercises
- Coordinate accredited training through suitable providers
- Support competency checks and skills-verification activities
- Maintain training records, competency information and forward schedules
- Develop medical contingency plans for workplaces, travel, events and operational activities

The focus will be on practical readiness, not simply completing training.

Coordinate Medical Providers and Support

You will manage access to external medical services where internal capability is not suitable or sufficient.

You will:

- Source and coordinate providers for specialist, niche or higher-acuity care requirements
- Coordinate clinical call-outs, telehealth, even
