A wide range of exciting career options are available for Aboriginal people across NSW Health in clinical, non-clinical and leadership roles.
You can apply for any position in NSW Health that is relevant to your experience, skills and qualifications.
NSW Health also advertises Aboriginal identified and targeted positions. Those positions have been specifically developed where Aboriginal identity, cultural knowledge or connections are a genuine aspect of the role.
All positions advertised across the NSW Health system are on the electronic recruitment system, NSW Health Jobs.
Sometimes, especially for Aboriginal targeted, or identified positions, jobs are advertised in relevant print media, such as the Koori Mail.
There are training programs specifically developed to strengthen and support the health career pathways of Aboriginal people.
You need to apply online for jobs at NSW Health. There will be a link on the role advertisement directing you to the page where you can begin your application.
You will be guided through the application process page by page. Many pages will have compulsory fields that must be completed before you can save a page or progress further.
A benefit of applying online is that you can build your profile with your resume, copies of your qualifications and credentials that can be used when applying for positions with NSW Health in the future.
Support with any part of the recruitment process for an Aboriginal person is available from an Aboriginal workforce representative.
