Meet Jo Weaver - Recruitment Expert For Locum RMO & Registrars

View fullsize

I’m Jo Weaver - Prescript’s Recruitment Partner for Medical Non-Specialists - RMOs and Registrars. I’m delighted to share with you a bit about my experience within the healthcare industry and the path that led me to Prescript.

I've had the privilege of dedicating my career to the ever-evolving realm of health services. From my early days in a bustling Family GP Practice to my current role at Prescript Recruitment, the path has been rich with experiences and growth.

My healthcare journey commenced in the heart of a Family GP Practice in Melton South, Victoria - ‘Station Medical Centre’, where I had the chance to immerse myself in every facet of the clinic. From the welcoming smiles at the front reception to delving into patients' needs, my role encapsulated both the visible interactions and the intricate machinery that keeps a medical practice ticking.

The clinic began as a modest setup, with just two doctors and two receptionists. However, as the patient base expanded and the community flourished, so did the practice. One of the most rewarding aspects was getting to understand the unique needs of our patients and forming lasting connections with them. To this day, it warms my heart to bump into familiar faces from my time there, and to know that I've left a positive impression.

My path then led me to a small rural public hospital ‘Bacchus Marsh Hospital, Victoria’ introducing a fresh chapter of challenges and learning. Here, I forged new relationships with clinical staff across diverse departments – from consulting clinics to theatre services and maternity wards. My interactions with the doctors extended throughout the hospital, and the collaborative environment was incredibly fulfilling.

In this role, maintaining the clinician's schedules, both on a daily basis and for on-call rotations, became a cornerstone of my responsibilities. The intricacies of this task were not without their complexities, yet there was immense satisfaction in bridging critical gaps in the clinical rosters. This ensured that the hospital's various units, whether the theatre, the wards, or after-hours care, remained adequately staffed, safeguarding the quality of patient care. The journey demanded organisation, resilience, adaptability, and the ability to innovate in the face of change – skills that have evolved over time.

Beyond the captivating world of healthcare, I find joy in various pursuits. The allure of crime mystery novels often draws me into their enigmatic narratives, providing a well-deserved escape. Then there's running, a personal challenge I've embraced wholeheartedly, with my sights set on conquering a half marathon by year-end – fingers crossed! And on a different note, the satisfaction of cultivating and consuming homegrown vegetables is a simple pleasure that resonates deeply.

In my current role at Prescript, I work closely with RMOs and Registrars, forming a vital bridge between these dedicated doctors and the communities that rely on their medical expertise. I stepped into my role at Prescript Recruitment with my aspirations clear; I aim to be more than a Recruitment Partner – I envision being a vital contributor to the team and the overall business. My mission is aligned with Prescript’s: to solve the regional doctor shortage in Australia. We aim to facilitate the provision of healthcare services by connecting dedicated locum doctors with the communities that need it most. It's a privilege to play a role in ensuring that these communities continue to receive the medical attention they deserve.

Having embarked on a journey that spans various facets of the healthcare industry, I bring a deep understanding of the challenges that health services face when it comes to staffing and credentialing.

So here's to the journey that's led me here, and the road that stretches ahead. With a heart brimming with passion for healthcare, a mind open to growth, and a commitment to making a difference, I'm excited to embrace each new chapter with Prescript Recruitment. Together, let's make healthcare accessible, efficient, and compassionate – one connection at a time.

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 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.

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!).

Meet Jo Weaver - Recruitment Expert For Locum RMO & Registrars

View fullsize

I’m Jo Weaver - Prescript’s Recruitment Partner for Medical Non-Specialists - RMOs and Registrars. I’m delighted to share with you a bit about my experience within the healthcare industry and the path that led me to Prescript.

I've had the privilege of dedicating my career to the ever-evolving realm of health services. From my early days in a bustling Family GP Practice to my current role at Prescript Recruitment, the path has been rich with experiences and growth.

My healthcare journey commenced in the heart of a Family GP Practice in Melton South, Victoria - ‘Station Medical Centre’, where I had the chance to immerse myself in every facet of the clinic. From the welcoming smiles at the front reception to delving into patients' needs, my role encapsulated both the visible interactions and the intricate machinery that keeps a medical practice ticking.

The clinic began as a modest setup, with just two doctors and two receptionists. However, as the patient base expanded and the community flourished, so did the practice. One of the most rewarding aspects was getting to understand the unique needs of our patients and forming lasting connections with them. To this day, it warms my heart to bump into familiar faces from my time there, and to know that I've left a positive impression.

My path then led me to a small rural public hospital ‘Bacchus Marsh Hospital, Victoria’ introducing a fresh chapter of challenges and learning. Here, I forged new relationships with clinical staff across diverse departments – from consulting clinics to theatre services and maternity wards. My interactions with the doctors extended throughout the hospital, and the collaborative environment was incredibly fulfilling.

In this role, maintaining the clinician's schedules, both on a daily basis and for on-call rotations, became a cornerstone of my responsibilities. The intricacies of this task were not without their complexities, yet there was immense satisfaction in bridging critical gaps in the clinical rosters. This ensured that the hospital's various units, whether the theatre, the wards, or after-hours care, remained adequately staffed, safeguarding the quality of patient care. The journey demanded organisation, resilience, adaptability, and the ability to innovate in the face of change – skills that have evolved over time.

Beyond the captivating world of healthcare, I find joy in various pursuits. The allure of crime mystery novels often draws me into their enigmatic narratives, providing a well-deserved escape. Then there's running, a personal challenge I've embraced wholeheartedly, with my sights set on conquering a half marathon by year-end – fingers crossed! And on a different note, the satisfaction of cultivating and consuming homegrown vegetables is a simple pleasure that resonates deeply.

In my current role at Prescript, I work closely with RMOs and Registrars, forming a vital bridge between these dedicated doctors and the communities that rely on their medical expertise. I stepped into my role at Prescript Recruitment with my aspirations clear; I aim to be more than a Recruitment Partner – I envision being a vital contributor to the team and the overall business. My mission is aligned with Prescript’s: to solve the regional doctor shortage in Australia. We aim to facilitate the provision of healthcare services by connecting dedicated locum doctors with the communities that need it most. It's a privilege to play a role in ensuring that these communities continue to receive the medical attention they deserve.

Having embarked on a journey that spans various facets of the healthcare industry, I bring a deep understanding of the challenges that health services face when it comes to staffing and credentialing.

So here's to the journey that's led me here, and the road that stretches ahead. With a heart brimming with passion for healthcare, a mind open to growth, and a commitment to making a difference, I'm excited to embrace each new chapter with Prescript Recruitment. Together, let's make healthcare accessible, efficient, and compassionate – one connection at a time.
