Job Location
UK, United Kingdom
Job Description
Are you a UK trained General Practitioner looking for an opportunity to live and work in Australia?
Explore the many regions of the beautiful and vast Australian landscape. Opportunities in Queensland, Western Australia, South Australia, Northern Territory, Victoria, New South Wales, Tasmania, and ACT.
GP’s are the most sought after doctor in Australia.
There are hundreds of communities across Australia that require GP’s including regional and remote towns as well as metropolitan areas.
Earning potential in public or private health organisations of up to $500,000 and in some case more than $500,000 per annum.
For an International Medical Graduate (IMG) to work in Australia as a medical practitioner the most common pathway is:
Get a job offer
Obtain a successful skills assessment
Get registration with Australian Medical Board
Get a visa
The skills assessment and registration processes are conducted simultaneously.
There are four types of registration with the Australian Medical Board relevant to IMG’s, these are:
Limited, Provisional, General and Specialist.
No matter how many years of experience you have, your initial registration in Australia will be either Limited or Provisional – unless you are able to gain registration as a Specialist directly.
Limited Registration
Specialists who have not yet completed the requirements for Specialist Registration in Australia and IMG’s who are intending to apply for general registration via the Standard Pathway may be eligible for Limited Registration.
For most practicing doctors this will be the Area of need type of Limited Registration.
Medical practitioners with limited registration for area of need are working under supervision in an area of Australia where there is a shortage of medical practitioners.
They are usually registered to practise in a rural or remote location.
Provisional Registration
For IMG’s Provisional Registration is available if you hold an AMC Certificate or via the Competent Authority pathway.
Once you have provisional registration you will need to complete 12 months of supervised practice (minimum of 47 weeks of full-time service) before gaining General Registration with Australia Health Practitioner Regulation Agency, AHPRA.
Specialist Registration
Specialists have a different skills assessment and registration pathway, which is administered by the College that represents that field of specialisation.
Many specialists come to Australia on limited registration and work under supervision while they are completing the requirements for specialist registration with the appropriate College (Including the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners).
Please reach out if you would like to discuss the array of options available to you. It really is a tailored approach to meet each individual doctor’s needs and circumstances. Having lived in the UK for over 10 years, Rob can share some of the nuances of life in Australia and guide you through the journey of securing an exciting future in Australia.
You will hold a primary degree Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery, (MBBCh) and Fellowship of Royal College of GP’s RCGP with at least 3 years post fellowship experience.
The client will provide you with a 482 TSS subclass Visa with the ability to apply for Permanent Residency in 2 years.
