Eligibility, licensing, and location restrictions can change. Always confirm details on the source posting before applying.
Why this is worth applying to
Worth applying for experienced RNs/midwives seeking a public-sector step into acute nursing leadership in a rural setting. Less relevant for clinicians without active AHPRA registration or those seeking fully remote or non-clinical careers.
Who should apply
Registered Nurses/Midwives with 3+ years post-registration experience, Clinical Nurses, or nurses with supervisory, rostering and quality-improvement experience who want a regional nursing leadership role.
CV angle
Reframe bedside and clinical experience as leadership and operations: show supervision of students, enrolled nurses and less experienced RNs; rostering or workforce coordination; clinical governance or quality-improvement projects; conflict resolution; and multidisciplinary teamwork. Quantify team size, acuity, and improvements, and state AHPRA registration and practising certificate clearly.
Skills to highlight
- Clinical leadership
- Staff supervision and development
- Rostering and workforce management
- Quality improvement
- Person-centred acute care
- Multidisciplinary collaboration
- Conflict resolution
- AHPRA registration
