You’ll work alongside experienced SRMOs and Registrars, supported by a collegial leadership team and nursing staff who know their community well. This is an ideal posting for FACEMs who thrive in busy, well-run regional environments where clinical autonomy, teamwork, and patient impact go hand in hand.

Why Bathurst

Bathurst is one of New South Wales’ most liveable regional cities — a blend of history, culture, and outdoor adventure just 2.5 hours from Sydney. Nestled in the Central Tablelands, it offers the perfect mix of regional charm and city convenience.

Explore its heritage streets, boutique cafés, and thriving local food scene; unwind with walks along the Macquarie River or take in the panoramic views from Mount Panorama — home to Australia’s most famous racetrack.

With modern infrastructure, quality schools, great restaurants, and the scenic Blue Mountains nearby, Bathurst offers a genuine work-life balance that many metropolitan roles can’t match.

Getting there:
Regular direct routes connect Bathurst to Sydney by car (via the Great Western Highway, 2.5 hours) or train (NSW TrainLink services operate 3 times daily). Regional flights are also available via nearby Orange or Lithgow.
