Prescript is seeking an experienced Locum Radiologist for an urgent five-week requirement across established community imaging sites on Bribie Island, including Bongaree, in South East Queensland.
This is a busy, varied role offering a broad general imaging and procedural mix within an established national diagnostic imaging group with a substantial network of community and hospital-based imaging services across Australia.
For an interstate radiologist, it also offers something a little different: a coastal Queensland placement that is easy to reach, connected to the mainland by bridge and still within straightforward driving distance of Brisbane.
The role
Dates: Monday 12 October – Friday 13 November 2026
Rate: $3,500 per day, negotiable due to the urgency of the requirement
Location: Bribie Island and Bongaree, Queensland
Travel: Flights, accommodation and hire car provided
This is a high-volume community imaging role, with an expected workload of 100+ reports per day alongside procedural work.
Imaging and modality mix
The role includes:
CT
Ultrasound
MSK ultrasound
X-ray
OPG
Coronary calcium scoring
Echocardiography
Bone Mineral Densitometry (BMD)
Vascular ultrasound
Interventional imaging and procedures
If you would like more detail on the expected procedural mix, Tarryn can talk you through the individual sites and requirements before you commit.
About the imaging group
You will be working with a well-established Australian diagnostic imaging organisation providing comprehensive imaging services to patients and referrers through a large network of clinics.
The Bribie Island sites form part of an established community imaging service, supported by experienced radiographers, sonographers and administrative teams.
For a locum radiologist, this means joining an established clinical environment, while still enjoying the feel of a close-knit coastal community.
Why Bribie Island?
Bribie Island offers the lifestyle appeal of an island placement without the travel complexity usually associated with one.
Located north of Brisbane, Bribie is connected directly to the mainland by bridge, so there are no ferries or regional flights involved.
Bongaree, on the western side of Bribie Island, sits along the waterfront of Pumicestone Passage. Outside work, you will find beaches, foreshore walks, cafés, boating, fishing and plenty of places to enjoy the water.
For a placement lasting several weeks, it offers a particularly appealing balance: a busy professional role during the week and an easy coastal lifestyle when the working day is finished.
Getting there
For interstate radiologists, travel is straightforward.
Fly into Brisbane Airport, collect your Prescript-arranged hire car and drive north to Bribie Island. Depending on traffic, the journey is approximately an hour by car.
Your flights, accommodation and vehicle will be organised as part of the locum, so you will have transport available throughout your stay.
Can’t cover the full five weeks?
Please still get in touch.
The requirement runs from 12 October to 13 November 2026, but if you can only cover part of the block, Tarryn would still like to hear from you. Given the urgency of the requirement, there may be flexibility around dates and rate.
Prescript support
Prescript will support you throughout the placement, including:
Flights
Accommodation
Hire car
Credentialing and paperwork
Pre-placement logistics
Support throughout your locum
We know that a good locum placement is about more than the rate and roster. It is about having the clinical information you need upfront, knowing what to expect when you arrive and having someone available if you need support along the way.
