Healthcare · Sydney, NSW, Australia · Full-Time · $75,000 - $85,000/yr · Visa: Employer sponsored · Applicants: Onshore applicants only

For surgical and rehab nurses, including those trained in the UK, here is a full-time Registered Surgical Nurse post in Sydney. It is with a 90-bed private hospital that specialises in surgery and rehabilitation, with plenty of orthopaedic, musculoskeletal, neurological and cardiac patients.

Alongside its surgical ward, the hospital runs long-standing inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation programmes. The job means tailoring clinical care to each patient, keeping documentation up to regulatory standard, communicating with doctors, allied health professionals, patients and their families, and showing leadership on shift.

The hospital considers sponsorship, though full working rights are on its essential list as well. Put simply, the post is for nurses already in Australia who have those rights.

Bring your English CV up to date first. AHPRA registration goes at the top, then your hospital experience and any surgical, orthopaedic or rehab wards you have worked on. Put together a nursing CV for Australia with Build AI CV and tailor it to this post.
