Consultant-level public hospital remuneration in Australia is strong and typically indexed through enterprise agreements, with the advertised indicative package in the high $200Ks to high $300Ks AUD range including superannuation and benefits. Growth beyond that depends on leadership, departmental, or academic appointments rather than the base clinical role.
