About Paul Tillman

As Prescripts Senior Recruitment Partner for non-specialist doctors, I am passionate about building close relationships with both the doctors and health services I work with. I always aim to provide a personal and tailored service and will strive to find the best opportunities for doctors based on their needs and goals and, in turn, provide health services with the best fit for the vacancies they have.

Having worked in medical recruitment for over five years, I have a great understanding of the roles available and the challenges health services face in finding staff for their vacancies.

Prior to working in medical recruitment, I was a Registered Nurse and worked in the UK as a Respiratory HDU Nurse for NHS trusts. This means I have a great insight into the challenges of working clinically and always try to consider this in my work.

I am currently studying Nursing again to allow me the opportunity to return to some clinical work in Australia. My family and I moved to Melbourne from the UK over five years ago, and I enjoy travelling and exploring Australia whenever I can, as well as getting back home to visit family in the UK.

My passions are spending time with friends and family, including my dog Ted, eating and drinking out, enjoying the Australian weather (when Melbourne allows), and sports – most of all football (or soccer, as I am often told).

I always have time for a chat and a joke with health services and doctors alike and look forward to building new connections at Prescript.

About Mel Houston

Hi, I'm Melissa Houston; I am one of the Senior Recruitment Partners at Prescript Recruitment, working with rural generalists and emergency medicine doctors across metro and regional Australia.

My experience covers over a decade of medical recruitment, specialising in senior doctors and solving the healthcare shortage.

I am an expert in working closely with hospitals, departments, and clinics to fill their critical vacancies. My success has included roster management, executive search projects and in-depth relationship building with locum doctors.

I love to work hard whilst injecting humour and fun into my day-to-day activities. I really enjoy meeting clients and doctors; as it stands, I think I've ticked off 100 hospitals that I have visited, and that is probably only touching the surface. I believe it's integral to matching doctors’ and clients’ needs and helps me better understand doctors' new roles.

Outside of work, I love spending time with my daughter and family. I'm a water baby at heart, so you'll often find me out on our family boat - sailing the beautiful waters of the Mornington Peninsula (where I live!).

As Prescript's Senior Radiology Recruitment Partner, I’m passionate about offering personally tailored solutions for short-term locum work, teleradiology and longer-term permanent roles for radiologists and healthcare providers across Australia, NZ and globally.

With many years of experience in the medical field, I’m ideally placed to find the best possible outcomes in any given scenario.

Warm, friendly, open conversations are incredibly important to me. I believe that good communication and really listening to the people I engage with is the key to genuine connection, which allows me to help in an authentic way.

Originally from New Zealand, I now live in Sydney and enjoy exploring local spots or hopping on a plane somewhere new to enjoy all the cultural, culinary, and scenic experiences I can. Having travelled extensively and spent some years living in Europe and the UK, I am able to provide an empathetic connection with people from all over the world. 

Wellbeing, creativity, travel, and adventure are personal passions for me, which help in bringing other people's career and lifestyle dreams and plans to life too.

Locum Radiologists – $3,500 to $4,000 Per Day in Tropical Cairns

Are you ready to unlock the story of the Tropics? This thriving tourist hotspot is considered one of the most diversely beautiful cities in the world. With more than 2 million visitors each year, this coastal city is the gateway to majestic Cape Tribulation, the Daintree Forest, and The Great Barrier Reef. You can visit the magical waterfalls of the Atherton tableland, go off-road into the Highlands or take the Skyrail to the idyllic rainforest village of Kuranda. 

Prescript is delighted to advise that we have radiology locum availability in Cairns from now through to the middle of April 2023.

“Cairns is a place like no other, wild experiences and memories that will last a lifetime”

Cairns is an adventurer's playground. Take a helicopter flight, go bungee jumping or take a balloon ride. Maybe skydiving or white water rafting is more your thing? For the less adventurous, you can snorkel in clear water, take a relaxing cruise or take a day trip to one of the many nearby tropical islands. Adventure, explore or just relax. The options are endless.

About Jason Ahmad

I’m Jason Ahmad – Senior Radiology Recruitment Partner at Prescript. I have worked in a number of health-related fields; however, medical recruitment has been the most enjoyable. I have more than 20 years of experience in areas such as Pathology, Medical Indemnity and GP Recruitment. This broad knowledge base allows me to understand the challenges faced by those in our field and therefore find solutions that often create enduring positive outcomes.

I am driven professionally by being able to create positive and meaningful health outcomes in rural and regional communities. It is immensely satisfying helping practices and hospitals find the right doctor for their permanent and locum positions, and I pride myself on finding optimal outcomes that balance doctor needs with practice requirements. Every time I make a placement, we are one step closer to solving the regional doctor shortage.

I see many opportunities for growth in the medical industry. I am particularly interested in seeing the barriers faced by International Medical Graduates lowered to facilitate their registration with the Australian Medical Board. As a cohort, they offer a very real solution to the enduring rural workforce shortage. I feel as a country, we have the resources and technology to do this without compromising patient safety.

Outside of work, I’m personally driven to encourage and support my two sons whose development are my greatest aspiration. Aside from a two-year stay in Melbourne, I have lived my entire life in Adelaide. I enjoy being outdoors when I can, and love a game of pool, and watching the cricket or football; especially at a live match. I have three cats and a dog who are sources of endless comfort and, at times, amusement.
