Full and Part time (3 days min) options available

About the role

This is a genuine clinical leadership position combining paediatric clinical work with dedicated time to lead people, develop services and help shape where Just for Kids goes next. You'll continue to treat your own paediatric caseload because staying connected to the clinical work matters when leading a clinical team.

• Meeting with paediatricians, GPs, allied health professionals and other key stakeholders

• Building and nurturing referral relationships
