This involves the development, implementation, and evaluation of recruitment guidelines and procedures, as well as providing expert advice and support to prospective applicants, hospital and health services (HHSs), primary care providers, and professional medical colleges. The role requires maintaining strong communication and collaborative relationships with internal and external stakeholders, including the Queensland Department of Health, the Australian Department of Aged Care, and other key partners to ensure alignment with state and national medical recruitment strategies.
Additionally, the role involves applying high-level administrative, organisational, and project management skills to support recruitment processes, including managing e-recruitment systems, monitoring candidate data, and preparing reports to meet stakeholder requirements. The position also plays a key role in identifying and implementing strategies to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of recruitment campaigns, ensuring compliance with relevant legislation and government policies. The role demands a proactive approach in supporting senior management and contributing to continuous improvements in medical recruitment practices.
