Northern NSW Local Health District (NNSWLHD) cares for over 300,000 people across the Northern Rivers, a sub-tropical region of rainforest, coastline and breathtaking natural attractions stretching from Tweed Heads to Grafton. Lismore, the region's cultural and economic capital, sits between the Gondwana rainforest and the Pacific Ocean, just 200 km south of Brisbane.

Across 12 hospitals and 21 community health centres, NNSWLHD clinicians have a direct impact on the health and wellbeing of regional communities, while staying connected to best-practice care across Australia through training networks and partnerships with local and metropolitan tertiary education providers. Major capital projects underway across several facilities reflect the district's investment in the future of care in Northern NSW.

This is a unique opportunity to join a close-knit and supportive Obstetrics and Gynaecology team at Lismore Base Hospital, providing specialist care to women and families across Northern NSW.

Lismore Base Hospital is appointing additional Staff Specialists to strengthen its workforce and support the long-term sustainability of the service, and has maintained a positive, cohesive culture and a strong commitment to high-quality patient care.

You are a collaborative, adaptable and patient-centred clinician who thrives in a close-knit team. You value collegiality, shared decision-making and a consistent approach to clinical practice. Your communication and counselling skills allow you to balance clinical recommendations with informed patient preferences, supporting women to make decisions about their care.
