Job Description

We are currently partnering with the WA Country Health Service to recruit a Consultant Intensivist to join the team at Geraldton Regional Hospital. This is a great opportunity to step into a brand-new ICU service and play a key role in shaping critical care delivery in a growing regional centre.

The Opportunity

This role offers more than a standard consultant position—it’s a chance to build, influence, and lead within a newly developed critical care environment.

• Work within a majorly redeveloped health campus (approx. $190M investment)
• Join at the launch phase of a new 8-bed ICU and HDU (mid-2026 opening)
• Be instrumental in designing models of care, governance, and service delivery
• Collaborate closely with ED, inpatient teams, and regional retrieval pathways
• Strong focus on leadership, mentorship, and service development

About the Hospital

Geraldton Regional Hospital is a key regional referral centre within WA’s Midwest:

• Approximately 100+ bed regional hospital (expanding with redevelopment)
• Functions as a regional hub (Tier 2 capability) supporting surrounding communities
• Services include Emergency, General Medicine, Surgery, Mental Health, and now expanding Critical Care
• New infrastructure includes ICU, ED upgrades, and inpatient facilities
• Strong integration with regional and tertiary referral networks

The ICU will support a broad case mix, offering genuine clinical variety not often seen in metro units.

Salary & Benefits

• Total package: approx. $412,000 – $523,000+ p.a. (incl. 12% super + PD allowance, dependent on experience)
• Additional salary banding noted from $333,000 – $432,000 base ranges depending on contract structure
• 4 weeks annual leave + 3 weeks PD leave
• Generous CPD allowance and training opportunities
• Opportunity to shape a new ICU from the ground up
• Strong clinical leadership exposure (not typically available in metro roles)
• Relocation support may be available

Requirements

• Fellowship of the College of Intensive Care Medicine (or equivalent)
• Eligibility for specialist registration with AHPRA
• Significant experience in ICU settings within comparable healthcare systems
• Ability to contribute to clinical leadership, governance, and teaching

Why Geraldton?

Geraldton offers a lifestyle that is genuinely difficult to replicate in metropolitan centres:

• A relaxed coastal city with stunning beaches and year-round sunshine
• Significantly lower cost of living and housing affordability compared to major cities
• Strong sense of community, work-life balance, and outdoor lifestyle
• Excellent access to water sports, fishing, and national parks
• Well-supported education options and family-friendly environment
