About Our Clinic

We’re a specialist dermatology practice in central Maroochydore, caring for patients from across the Sunshine Coast. Our services include medical dermatology, skin cancer assessment and treatment, minor skin surgery, UV phototherapy and dermatologist led cosmetic care, including energy and light based treatments.

Our dermatologists, nursing and clinical support staff, and reception team work closely together to make each visit run smoothly. We value the small things that make a difference to patients,



from a warm welcome to taking the time to help someone feel at ease before a procedure.

Position

This is a permanent full time position paying $42 to $46 per hour, depending on experience. Hours are primarily weekdays, with possible Saturday morning shifts.

You’ll work alongside our specialist dermatologists, supporting patient care during medical consultations and minor skin procedures. It’s a hands on role that suits someone who enjoys thinking ahead, keeping clinics running smoothly and helping patients feel at ease.

Your day may include:

- Implementation of dermatologist-led skin treatment plans, including topical, light based, systemic and biologic therapies.

- Phone and electronic communication with patients regarding treatment queries, pre & post procedural concerns and managing our specialists' appointment books.

- Assisting dermatologists during consultations and minor skin procedures within your scope of practice.

- Helping patients feel comfortable before and during procedures, communicating clearly about what to expect and relaying concerns to the treating clinician.

- Keeping the clinical team informed as priorities change, giving clear handovers and anticipating what the next consultation or procedure will need.

- Preparation of consultation and procedure rooms, checking supplies and setting up equipment for the next patient.

- Lending a hand at reception when the team needs extra support.

The role is primarily medical and surgical. If you hold a current Queensland laser licence, there may also be opportunities to contribute to our energy and light based treatments, adding variety to your work across the clinic.

Ideal Experience

We’d especially like to hear from you if you bring experience in any of the following areas:

- Specialist practice. Experience in dermatology, plastic surgery or a similar clinical or surgical setting would be an advantage.

- Minor skin procedures. Experience preparing patients and procedure rooms, assisting clinicians during procedures and working with aseptic technique.

- Biologic medicines.



Experience supporting patients receiving biologic medicines in dermatology, rheumatology, immunology or another medical specialty, including familiarity with HPOS and PRODA for PBS authority workflows.

- Laser and light based treatments. A current Queensland laser licence would be advantageous. If you hold one, please tell us which devices or treatments you’ve worked with, such as IPL, vascular lasers or ablative lasers.

What We Value

More importantly, we are seeking the right individual who embodies our clinic's values and has the right attitude and approach to their work. Your ability to learn quickly, your dedication to patient care, and your capacity to work well within our team are what truly matter.
