2025/26 Junior Medical Staff Recruitment 

Applications are considered on a competitive basis for intern, HMO and registrar positions. 

Interns and HMOs rotate through different specialty units with a roster allocated based on the candidates preferences and training pathways. 

Registrars are generally appointed directly by individual departments, and some come to Western Health on rotation from another health service. 

Please see the careers pages of this website for further information. 

Please see the Western Health careers website for currently advertised positions and how to apply. 

2025 HMO RECRUITMENT (current year) 

Some positions are currently available for HMOs across our Surgical and General HMO streams to commence from Term 2 (May), with a variety of rotations available. 

Please email our Medical Workforce Unit if you wish to apply for a 2025 Surgical or General HMO position from Term 2 in 2025, with your CV and cover letter attached. 

Full-time appointments for 3, 6 or 9 months are preferred, but part-time and job-share arrangements will be considered for suitable applicants in some rotations.
