Job description

Job Summary

This is a rare opportunity to join a well-established, family-focused practice in one of South East Queensland's fastest-growing communities, with GPs billing between AUD $320,000 and $420,000 annually (approximately £170,000-£225,000). A ready-made patient base and a genuine lifestyle-first culture mean you can build the practice you want, on your own terms, from day one.

The Practice

• Independent contractor model with private billing, on a 65/35 split in your favour, so your income scales directly with your hours and patient numbers.
• Two decades of stability - the practice has operated from the same Springfield Lakes site since 2004, with a practice manager of 19 years and staff retention rarely seen elsewhere.
• Broad clinical scope, including skin cancer checks and excisions, antenatal care, women's health including implants and IUDs, chronic disease management, WorkCover assessments and travel medicine.
• UK-trained practice owner who made the same move herself and has since personally brought several British GPs into the practice.
• Genuinely lifestyle-first culture, with most GPs choosing to work a four-day week and a strong social calendar including river kayaking and bowling.

Benefits

• Billings of AUD $320,000-$420,000 annually (approximately £170,000-£225,000), achievable under the practice's straightforward fee-split model.
• A 65/35 fee split in your favour applies to every GP at the practice, with no negotiation needed.
• A ready-made patient list transfers to you from a departing GP under Australia's patient-choice model, so you are not starting from scratch.
• Full autonomy over your hours and working days as an independent contractor.
• Visa sponsorship and a relocation allowance to support your move, alongside full onboarding support.
• Indemnity cover and CPD support included as standard.
• A three-year contract, aligned to the standard pathway to permanent residency.
• A genuinely settled team, with a practice manager of 19 years, a senior receptionist of 9 years and a nurse of 10 years.
• Open brief on speciality, gender and experience level, so the role suits newly qualified and experienced GPs alike.

Location Overview

Springfield Lakes is a master-planned community built around lakes and parkland, part of the fast-growing Ipswich region on Brisbane's doorstep, now home to its own university campus, major shopping centre and two hospitals. Robelle Domain's 24 hectares of parkland include the free Orion Lagoon waterpark and 11km of boardwalks and treetop walks, while the Gold Coast is a 40-45 minute drive for weekend beach trips. Brisbane CBD is around 30km away, reachable by direct train or a 35-40 minute drive against the flow of peak traffic. It's a genuinely family-friendly area, with new housing estates and good local schools all close by, giving GPs and their families a strong sense of community from the outset.

Skills and Requirements

• Qualified as a General Practitioner, with MRCGP or equivalent qualification.
• Eligible for registration with the AMC and RACGP (or already registered).
• Commitment to high-quality, patient-centred care.
• Strong communication and teamwork skills.
