About the Role

Working throughout the Northern suburbs of Melbourne, you'll provide personalised podiatry services to clients in their homes and community settings.

• Geriatric aged care
• General podiatry and routine foot care

With your vehicle, fuel, equipment, technology and scheduling support all provided, you can focus on your clients and clinical work while enjoying a genuinely sustainable working day.

If you're an experienced Podiatrist looking for strong remuneration, autonomy, flexibility and a better work-life balance, we'd love to hear from you.

The organisation is ideally looking for someone to join full-time, however, they are open to Podiatrists seeking a minimum of 3 days per week.
