Registrar - Paediatrics

2025 Paediatric Registrar position – Ballarat

We have had a single paediatric Registrar position become available in the second half of this year:

-          Second 6 months (Aug ’25- Feb ’26) x 1 position

This position is accredited through the Royal Australasian College of Physicians (Paediatrics) for Advanced Training in General Paediatrics (General Paediatrics with a perinatal component or Rural/regional training). Although suitable for Advanced Trainees in Paediatrics, the position is well supported and would be suitable as an unaccredited Paediatric Registrar position.

These positions are full time 1.0 EFT positions. Successful applicants will work on a rotating roster alongside six other Paediatric Advanced trainees, with broad exposure to both inpatient and outpatient paediatric and neonatal medicine. The position includes a requirement for 1 night on call most weeks and 1 weekend in 7 (with 24-hour consultant support provided).

Grampians Health Ballarat has a 20-bed Paediatric & Adolescent Unit and a 10-bed Level 4 Special Care Nursery. We also operate a Paediatric Day Medical Unit (embedded within the Paediatric Ward) and non[1]complex general, orthopaedic and ENT surgical services for children. We have 24-hour on-site staffing from Paediatric Residents and Registrars, as well as 24-hour on call Paediatric consultant staffing provided by Paediatric VMO specialists, as well as extensive public and private paediatric outpatient services.
