About us

Great jobs, two locations.

A strong healthcare system is at the heart of a thriving community. But with healthcare staff shortages worldwide, recruiting the skilled workforce needed to deliver essential services and help our growing communities flourish can be challenging. 

That’s why two major health services in the Northern Mallee region of Victoria – Mildura Base Public Hospital and Mallee Track Health and Community Service – are tackling this issue head-on, with a bold and innovative recruitment campaign to boost the local healthcare workforce for the long-term benefit of the community. 

We are committed to finding and investing in the best staff, now and into the future. Generous relocation support packages, fast-track career progression and higher starting salaries are on offer for healthcare staff who are ready for a change.

Do what you love, make a difference in people’s lives and embrace a balanced lifestyle in a diverse, laid-back region. Find the perfect fit for your skills, aspirations and your family in the beautiful Northern Mallee. Find out what else is different below.

We have a raft of opportunities available across two major healthcare services in the Northern Mallee. Mildura Base Public Hospital is a 172-bed teaching hospital in a large regional centre, while Mallee Track Health and Community Service provides a range of health and aged care services across many small rural towns in the region.

Both hospitals offer a professional, supportive and flexible workplace. Work, life and family balance is key to our success, where you can be part of a thriving region and really make a positive impact on the community. See more about the different areas of healthcare we are recruiting for below.

Career pathways.

Lifelong learning.

Our education and career pathway programs are designed to help foster careers at Mildura Base Public Hospital and Mallee Track Health and Community Service in health, mental health, aged care and community service. 

Through our connections with schools, TAFEs and universities we open up opportunities for participation and lifelong learning with work experience and training programs such as taster days for secondary school students, and work placements for tertiary students, as well as graduate programs and Transition to Practice programs for post-tertiary candidates. 

Our staff are offered access to world-class further education and training with opportunities for accelerated career progression.

We are committed to ensuring our healthcare workforce provides high-quality, evidence-based care, fostering patient safety and satisfaction. We do this through clinical and non-clinical development opportunities. This includes courses for nurses, junior medical staff and allied health professionals. Lifelong, continuous learning also helps foster innovation, critical thinking and problem-solving abilities to deliver the best possible care for our patients.

Region.

Sunshine 300 days a year.

Mildura, nestled in the heart of the Northern Mallee, is a growing regional centre on the banks of the Murray River. This sunny oasis offers a blend of productive fruit orchards, vineyards, lakes, national parks, and vast outback landscapes. Situated 475 km north-west of Melbourne, halfway between Adelaide and Sydney, and with a local regional airport, it’s a great base for exploring.

Nearby Ouyen and Sea Lake are friendly country towns with easy access to the regional centres of Mildura to the north and Swan Hill to the east. Local lakes are at the heart of the community – a gathering place for family and friends and for recreational water-sports. Life moves at a relaxed pace here, giving you more time for what’s important to you.
