Job description

• An exceptional opportunity is now available for Registered Nurses (RN) and Endorsed Enrolled Nurses (EEN) to join a dynamic Day Surgery Unit within a premier private surgical precinct in Merewether, situated in the vibrant Newcastle region of New South Wales. Offering permanent full-time, part-time, and casual positions, this role provides successful candidates with flexible scheduling designed to support a genuine work-life balance. Remuneration and classification for these positions are aligned with the established state Enterprise Agreement rates for private hospitals, offering competitive financial compensation alongside additional perks such as fitness passports, novated leasing options, paid parental leave, and discounted private health insurance.

  The successful applicants will play a pivotal role across both the main private hospital facility and its dedicated day surgery center, providing compassionate, high-quality care to patients undergoing day-only procedures, overnight admissions, and complex multi-night surgical stays. Working as part of a collaborative multi-disciplinary team within a modern 14-theatre health hub, nurses will guide patients through every stage of their surgical journey—from initial admission and preoperative preparation to post-recovery care and discharge. Applicants must hold current AHPRA registration, possess strong interpersonal skills, and demonstrate a strong commitment to quality patient care. Previous experience in a surgical admission or discharge setting is highly regarded, though ongoing professional development and career progression opportunities are actively provided.
