Job description

Hi, I’m Jeenita, National Recruitment Manager at Urgent Care Network Australia.

Some GPs want a change of scene for a week. Others want a regular rotation, or a few shifts while they’re in another state. Whatever you’re after, our FIFO roles are built around your calendar, not ours.

Pick what works for you

• A few days or a week: perfect for a quick change of pace
• Two weeks or more: a solid block over summer
• Week on, week off: a regular rotation you can plan around
• One-off or ongoing: try it this summer, and keep coming back if you love it

Heading interstate? Visiting family? Add a few shifts to the trip

Tell us when you’re free and where you’d like to go. We’ll organise and cover your flights and accommodation.

Why GPs choose us

Urgent Care Network Australia is the country’s largest urgent care network. You’ll have experienced nurses beside you, strong clinical leadership behind you, and good systems that let you focus on patients rather than paperwork.

Your shifts will include

• Acute illness and injuries
• Minor procedures and wound care
• Same-day urgent assessments
• Short-term acute care within a structured clinical framework

You’ll be helping communities when they need it most, and keeping pressure off local EDs.
