About the role

Consultant Psychiatrist | Hervey Bay & Maryborough | Total remuneration package up to AUD $564,548 p.a.

We are currently hiring on behalf of a well-established Queensland public Hospital and Health Service to recruit Consultant Psychiatrists across two regional hospitals in the Wide Bay region, with additional positions potentially available in the wider Wide Bay–Burnett area.

About the service

Our client is a Queensland Health–funded Hospital and Health Service delivering acute and community mental health care to a growing regional catchment. Positions sit within an established Mental Health and Specialised Services division operating across two regional public hospitals — a principal regional referral facility and a well-connected smaller regional hospital — supported by an experienced multidisciplinary team spanning inpatient, outpatient, community and hospital-in-the-home programs.

Your role

  • Deliver expert psychiatric care to patients across inpatient, outpatient and hospital-in-the-home services
  • Provide professional leadership within a well-resourced multidisciplinary mental health team
  • Contribute to the training, education and supervision of junior medical staff and allied health colleagues
  • Work across a genuine breadth of clinical presentations in a supportive regional environment
  • Positions available at Senior Staff Specialist, Staff Specialist, or Senior Medical Officer level, dependent on experience and qualifications

What's on offer

  • Total remuneration package up to AUD $564,548 p.a.
  • Base salary between $193,191 – $282,912 p.a., dependent on level and experience
  • Employer superannuation up to 12.75%
  • Annual leave loading of 17.5%
  • Professional development allowance
  • Motor vehicle allowance
  • Queensland Health salary packaging benefits
  • Flexible rostering to support genuine work/life balance
  • Relocation support may be available for the right candidate
  • 482 / 494 visa sponsorship available for suitably qualified international candidates

Requirements

  • Registered, or eligible for registration, as a Specialist Psychiatrist with AHPRA
  • Fellowship of the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists (FRANZCP) for Staff Specialist and Senior Staff Specialist appointments
  • Australian working rights, or eligibility for employer-sponsored visa
  • Current National Police Check, Working with Children Check, and all standard Queensland Health pre-employment checks
  • A genuine commitment to delivering high-quality psychiatric care in a regional public health setting

Life on the Fraser Coast

Hervey Bay and Maryborough sit on Queensland's stunning Fraser Coast, offering a warm subtropical climate with the world-heritage-listed K'gari (Fraser Island) and the whale-watching capital of Australia right on your doorstep. Property prices are dramatically more affordable than Brisbane or the Sunshine Coast, and the region offers excellent public and private schooling, family-friendly communities, and strong local health and lifestyle amenities. Brisbane is a comfortable drive or short flight south, giving you all the benefits of regional coastal living without giving up easy access to a capital city.
