Site based health roles need nurses who can work independently, often remotely, and handle emergencies and paperwork with nobody to hand over to.

Who hires occupational health nurses

Mining and resources companies, manufacturing and industrial employers, occupational health providers and corporate health services.

What the job involves

Health assessments and surveillance, first response and emergency care on site, injury management, drug and alcohol testing and health promotion.

Why these roles stay open

Remote and fly in fly out rosters shrink the pool, and applicants can have the clinical skills but not the independence the role needs.

How I search

I look for nurses with emergency, remote area or occupational health backgrounds, and I check roster fit and independent decision making before you meet them.

I name a shortlist date in writing before I start, inside 21 days, and you get a written update every Friday.

What it costs

15% of first year base salary plus super, plus GST. Nothing up front and nothing at all if the search fails. Payable within seven days of your new starter beginning, or spread over six months interest free through APay. If they leave within six months for any reason other than redundancy or a change to the role, I run the search again at no charge.
