The Roles

You will be a suitably experienced and enthusiastic Consultant Anaesthetist working in the Anaesthesia / Surgical Department.

While both roles are Generalist positions, for one there is a preference for experience in anaesthesia conducted outside of the operating theatre (such as for neuro-interventional, radiological or endoscopic procedures), while for the other, experience in cardiothoracic and liver transplant anaesthesia would be beneficial.

Given the metropolitan location of this role, the position will require you to be FANZCA qualified.

The Hospital

Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital (SCGH) is one of Australia 's leading teaching tertiary hospitals. The Hospital has over 600 beds and employs approximately 5,500 staff who treat over 420,000 patients every year.

Located at the Queen Elizabeth II Medical Centre 4km from Perth city centre, SCGH provides a comprehensive range of clinical services including trauma, emergency and critical care, orthopaedics, general medicine, general surgery and cardiac care.  It is home to WA's only comprehensive cancer centre - the largest cancer treatment centre in the State - and is the state's principal hospital for neurosurgery and liver transplants.

 

The Area

Perth is regularly ranked in the top 10 most liveable cities, with its own premium wine region, 19 white-sand beaches and Indian Ocean sunsets. It’s located along the waters of the Swan River and the west of the city runs along the Indian Ocean. It is the state capital of Western Australia and home to around 1.6 million people, making it a highly multi-cultural city with a fantastic social scene boasting plenty of alfresco style cafes and restaurants.

Perth is great for families with beautiful beaches to the north and south of the city and the clean, clear coastline attracts many visitors who enjoy snorkelling, sailing, surfing or swimming with the wild dolphins that famously live in the nearby bay areas. It also offers one of the most biologically diverse regions in the world.
