About the company

Working with a long standing NFP oraganisation in remote Queensland, the large multidisciplanary team is looking to service the remote community in need. This is a chance to be part of a team providing high quality care to patients who otherwise would not receive services.

Travel within the community may be in 4x4 vehicle or via twin engine light aircraft to some of the more remote communities on islands or in the remote outback with a dedicated support staff. This is a rare opportunity to service the community in remote Australia while being paid for such a unique experience.
