Consultant/Specialist – General Medicine

Consultant/Specialist – General Medicine
Community Hospital | Tasmania
Permanent Full-Time | Up $520k plus

Are you a General Physician looking for meaningful clinical work, real influence in service development, and a lifestyle that gives you time to live?
We are seeking a motivated Consultant/ Specialist – General Medicine to join a well-established and supportive team delivering care across the community.

• Tasmania offers what many doctors are looking for but rarely find: professional challenge without metropolitan congestion.
• World-class bushwalking, mountain biking, coastline, food and wine are part of everyday life here. You can build a serious medical career and still be home for dinner.
• Work/life balance

Based in a scenic coastal location, you’ll enjoy the rare blend of professional challenge and exceptional lifestyle. Surrounded by rugged mountains, wild coastline, and pristine lakes, this region offers unspoilt beauty and space to breathe.

Why Tasmania?
Tasmania offers something increasingly rare: space, community, and time.

• There’s no commute stress. No overcrowding. Just high-quality medicine and a genuinely balanced life.
• If you’re considering a move interstate or from overseas, this is an opportunity to build a rewarding long-term career in a region that values your expertise.

The Role
You will provide high-quality specialist general medicine services:
The department delivers:

• Acute and sub-acute general medicine
• A large outpatient service
• Subspecialty services including Cardiology, Respiratory, Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Infectious Diseases, Nephrology, Endocrinology and Diabetes, Geriatrics and Palliative Care

You’ll work within a collaborative team of physicians who value clinical excellence, shared decision-making, and practical service improvement.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Strong training environment – RACP-accredited for Basic and Advanced Physician Training
• Active involvement in undergraduate teaching through the University of Tasmania Rural Clinical School
• Opportunity to influence service design in a regional health system
• Balanced workload with genuine team support

This is a role for someone who enjoys breadth of practice and wants to make an impact beyond the ward round.

What We’re Looking For

• Specialist (or limited) registration with the Medical Board of Australia in General Medicine
• Recent acute hospital experience
• Demonstrated ability to work effectively within a multidisciplinary team
• Strong communication skills with patients, families and colleagues
• Commitment to quality improvement and ongoing professional development

Subspecialty interests are welcome and supported.

Benefits

• 35% allowance in lieu of private practice
• 20% Retention Allowance
• Fully maintained private plated vehicle or motor vehicle allowance (~$28,786 p.a. pro rata)
• Salary packaging (up to $9,010 living expenses + $2,650 meals & entertainment annually)
• Generous relocation assistance and accommodation support
• Study leave and professional development funding
• Fitness Passport access across 40+ Tasmanian facilities
