Canterbury Hospital is seeking a Provisional Fellow in Emergency Medicine to join our medical team for the 2027 clinical year. This opportunity will support training doctors to meet the needs of the Canterbury patient population whilst developing expertise in a complex clinical environment.

Where you'll be working
Canterbury hospital is a 215-bed metropolitan acute general hospital in the Sydney Local Health District providing services in Emergency Medicine, General Surgery, General Medicine, Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Paediatrics, Aged Care, Rehabilitation and Palliative Care. The facility is also undergoing a $350M redevelopment for expansion of acute clinical services planned in 2027. The Canterbury area is home to a culturally and linguistically diverse community catering to patients with complex health problems and limited access to health care. Canterbury Hospital therefore offers a unique opportunity for doctors in training to develop hands-on clinical experience whilst learning in a supervised environment.

What you'll be doing

As Fellow of the Canterbury Hospital Emergency Department (ED), you will provide clinical services to patients within the ED at a senior level, including the supervision of junior staff in addition to administrative and teaching responsibilities and an opportunity to initiate and participate in research.

Sydney Local Health District's vision incorporates NSW Health Core Values and a commitment to equity, health improvement, timeliness and efficiency, recognising that evidence-based service delivery requires highly skilled and valued staff supported by research, education and state-of-the-art technologies.

Our strategic priority under this vision is our commitment to excellence in Patient and Family Centre Care. Staff are supported to ensure patients, their families and carers are considered as partners in care to achieve optimal patient outcomes and best possible healthcare experience.

  1. MBBS or equivalent, currently registered or eligible for registration with the Medical Board of Australia.
  2. Fellowship of Australasian College for Emergency Medicine or suitable overseas specialist qualification in Emergency Medicine or final year of training towards fellowship.
  3. Clinical excellence across the entire range of the emergency medicine casemix, including trauma and paediatrics.
  4. Excellent interpersonal skills.
  5. An ability to work as part of a team in the Emergency Department.
  6. Commitment to quality improvement and research in the Emergency Department.
  7. Commitment to ongoing education and teaching of nursing staff, medical students and postgraduate medical staff at all levels.
  8. At least three years' post graduate experience in public hospital service (or equivalent)
