Step into a uniquely rewarding locum experience this summer in Hobart. We’re seeking experienced FACEMs and Rural Generalists to support a leading private emergency service that operates around the clock. This is a rare chance to bring your skills to a high-functioning, specialist-led ED — and do it in one of Australia’s most lovely capital cities.
What you’ll be part of
A private, specialist-supported emergency service with a reputation for fast, efficient triage and smooth patient flow
A setting where specialists drive clinical decisions, and visiting physicians feel fully integrated
A system engineered for consistency, quality, and strong locum support (everything from credentialing to shift coordination is optimised)
Around-the-clock operation with senior clinical oversight and stable staffing systems
Why this role is exceptional
Holiday, public-holiday, and NYE loadings that significantly boost your take-home earning
Travel and accommodation fully provided - no logistics headaches on you
The chance to work in high calibre private ED conditions, with access to diagnostic support and streamlined processes
Exposure to cases across adult and paediatric emergency presentations — rewarding, demanding, and professionally stimulating
Prescript’s full-care support: credentialing, contracts, clinical liaison, orientation — all handled for you
Why Hobart over the holidays
Tasmania’s capital is a summer gem: long sunny days, striking landscapes, rich food and arts scenes, and a relaxed but vibrant pace of life. Wander the waterfront, sample local seafood, explore museum and gallery precincts, hike to city views or set sail for day escapes. It’s the kind of place you’ll remember long after your shift finishes.
