About Ash Pinkerton

Hi there, I'm Ash and I work as Prescript's Recruitment Partner for Family Medicine GPs and Psychiatrists. Based in Adelaide, my aim is to become the most knowledgeable recruiter for Psychiatrists and Family Medical GPs in Australia. I'm passionate about working with the Prescript team to develop tailored solutions that address the regional doctor shortage and provide the best possible outcomes for everyone involved.

With over three years of recruitment experience in a variety of industries, including blue, pink, and white collar, I've gained a deep understanding of the needs of both clients and candidates. Recently, I served as a Board Member, where I focused on upholding ethical standards and streamlining operations. Additionally, as a Co-Managing Director and Co-Founder within the recruitment industry, I worked hard to develop and implement business strategies that prioritised client needs and ensured positive outcomes for all involved.

I'm a firm believer in continuous learning and am always striving to expand my skill set. I have completed certifications in Python coding and Life Coaching, and I'm currently working towards completing certification in labour hire. I live by the quote from Eric Hoffer: "In times of change, the learners shall inherit the earth, while the learned find themselves beautifully equipped to deal with the world that no longer exists."

At my core, I'm motivated by the desire to make a positive impact and contribute to a greater cause. In my personal life, I'm committed to self-improvement and enjoy exploring new hobbies and learning new skills. When I'm not working, you can find me spending time with my family and friends, reading books, hiking, or cooking up a storm in the kitchen.

I'm thrilled to be part of the Prescript team, where everyone genuinely values each other's opinions and achievements. In my experience, Prescript Recruitment is a productive, constructive, and supportive team that is committed to making a real difference in the industry.

Ongoing General Adult Psychiatrists – Part/Full-Time Telepsychiatry Opportunity

,

Medicare has recently reinstated bulk-billed regional and rural telepsychiatry loadings, allowing communities across Australia access to critical mental health services. There is now a huge demand for Consultant Psychiatrists to provide telehealth services for those in need.

Prescript is helping two of our telehealth clients find multiple Psychiatrists for General Adult consultations on an ongoing, part or full-time basis. If you are a Psychiatrist looking to maximise your earnings, working as little as 5 hours per week around your current commitments, whilst providing valuable services to Australian communities, we’d love to hear from you.

Appointments can be booked on an individual basis, after hours or over weekends, providing you with the flexibility to work around your full-time commitments, whilst making $371 per appointment or above. 

There is a large backlog of patients waiting to be seen and appointments can be booked with very little notice. The majority of appointments will be 45-minute initial consultations, with time allocated for reporting and the opportunity to book follow-up appointments should they be necessary.

Working with a support team and excellent, easy-to-use software, the stress of managing your workload or processing Medicare billings is taken away from you. Referrals can be made to their in-house psychologists, GPs, or allied health.

If you have additional training or interest in ADHD, there is the opportunity to provide longer ADHD consultations with additional remuneration, up to $600 per appointment.

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!).
