About this role
Your opportunity
We have an exciting opportunity for an Allied Health Practitioner in Community Mental Health to join our team. We are looking for someone who is interested in practicing in a rural/remote setting and in closing the gap in health outcomes for First Nations peoples.
The very nature of what we do and who we are is the real opportunity. Providing health care in the bush is full of challenges, however, it remains the most rewarding of human experiences.
Escape the city crowds and discover the red dirt wonderland where the skies are as big as the characters you will meet. Charleville is the largest town in South West Queensland, situated on the banks of the Warrego River in the heart of Mulga Country. Charleville is a reminder that the good things in life shouldn't be hurried, it's a chance to embrace the simple things in life and a celebration of community spirit with the annual Charleville Cup Races the highlight of summer.
What we can do for you
Ultimately, we provide you a platform to leapfrog your career with more opportunities to experience a wider scope of practice with less competition due to location and population.
Nowhere else will you experience the vast diversity of career advancement other than in rural and remote Queensland.

- Enjoy a flexible work environment and great company culture!
- Live and work in a charming rural community!
