Job description

We are seeking experienced Registered Nurses to support a range of healthcare programs across multiple locations throughout Australia on a casual basis. Opportunities may include clinical trials, patient support programs, and patient and clinician education programs, delivered in community and home-based settings.

This role is ideal for nurses who are confident working independently and providing high-quality, patient-centred care. You will be responsible for delivering protocol and program-specific activities, educating patients and caregivers or clinic teams, completing clinical assessments, collecting samples where required, and maintaining accurate documentation.

The ideal candidate will have a minimum of 1-2 years' post-registration nursing experience and be comfortable working autonomously in the community. Experience in venepuncture, blood collection, port access, and paediatric patient care will be highly regarded.

Successful candidates must be prepared to undertake extensive online training and ongoing education requirements prior to supporting patients. This training is renumerated and essential to ensure compliance with program protocols, sponsor requirements, and regulatory standards.

These positions are offered on a casual, ad hoc basis, with work allocated according to patient demand, program requirements, and availability within your local area. While many programs are ongoing and long-term in nature, hours may fluctuate and cannot be guaranteed. This opportunity is best suited to nurses who value flexibility and are looking to supplement their existing employment or commitments.

As our programs continually evolve, vacancies may not always be available in every location at the time of application. Should there not be a suitable opportunity near you currently, we will retain your details in our talent pool and proactively reach out when a position becomes available in your area. We are always keen to connect with experienced nurses for upcoming opportunities across Australia and look forward to hearing from you!

Key Requirements

• Paediatric nursing experience highly regarded
• Strong computer literacy, including the ability to confidently navigate online training platforms, electronic documentation systems and web-based applications via laptop device and/or tablet
• Clinical trials, patient support program, or patient education experience desirable
• Strong communication, patient education, and documentation skills
• Willingness to complete extensive online training
• Flexible availability to support patient visits as required and communicate with program teams in a timely manner
