Consultant / Specialist Anaesthetist – Coastal Queensland

Up to $549K Package + Private Practice | Coastal Lifestyle | High Earnings

The Opportunity

An exceptional opportunity for a Consultant / Specialist Anaesthetist to join a high-performing department in coastal Queensland, offering a rare combination of top-tier earnings, lifestyle, and private practice potential.

If you're looking to step away from metro pressure without sacrificing income or clinical quality, this role delivers on all fronts.

You’ll join a supportive, well-structured Anaesthetic Department with strong clinical leadership, working across a broad and rewarding case mix.

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Up to $549K total remuneration package
  • Private practice opportunity with real earning potential
  • Coastal lifestyle with short commutes and no congestion
  • Flexible contracts (full-time or part-time)
  • Supportive team with strong governance and culture

Private Practice – Real Income Upside

Unlike many public roles, this position offers genuine support to build additional private income streams, including:

  • Access to private hospital sessional lists
  • Assistance with credentialing and setup
  • Introductions to established referral networks

The Role

You Will Provide High-quality Specialist Anaesthetic Services, Including

  • Delivering safe, evidence-based anaesthesia across a broad case mix
  • Participation in an on-call roster (negotiable)
  • Teaching and supervision of junior doctors and trainees
  • Contribution to clinical governance, audit, and quality improvement

The Hospital

A modern 247-bed regional referral hospital with strong recent investment and redevelopment, offering:

  • 24/7 Emergency Department
  • 5-bed ICU + Coronary Care Unit
  • Obstetrics
  • Orthopaedics
  • General Surgery
  • Paediatrics

You’ll work in a collaborative, well-supported clinical environment with excellent infrastructure.

The Location

Enjoy The Best Of Coastal Living In Regional Queensland

  • Beaches, reef, and national parks at your doorstep
  • Just 4 hours from Brisbane + direct flights
  • Family-friendly community with excellent schools
  • Affordable housing and lower cost of living
  • Relaxed pace of life with minimal commute times

IMG-Friendly Opportunity

This role is highly suitable for International Medical Graduates (IMGs):

  • Substantially Comparable (SIMG) Anaesthetists encouraged to apply
  • Eligible via expedited pathway / Competent Authority (UK, Ireland, NZ)
  • Strong support with onboarding, registration, and transition
  • Eligible for Specialist Registration with AHPRA
  • FANZCA or equivalent specialist qualification
  • Experience as a Consultant / Specialist Anaesthetist
  • Commitment to teamwork, teaching, and high-quality patient care

This is a standout opportunity to maximise both income and lifestyle in one of Australia’s most desirable regions.
