Where you’ll be working

As a Consultant Paediatrician you will help shape the future of child and adolescent health in regional South Australia.

You will deliver high-quality paediatric and neonate care while supporting integrated service delivery across the region and state—including outreach to northern country hospitals and engagement with the broader children's health network.

You’ll provide expert clinical services, contribute to quality improvement initiatives, and support evidence-based practices that enhance outcomes for children—especially Aboriginal children—through culturally appropriate care.
