General Practice

Your pathway to an extraordinary career in General Practice

There is nothing ‘general’ about a General Practitioner. Every GP is a medical specialist, providing their community with valuable and essential family practice services.

GPs are recognised medical specialists in Australia and undertake Fellowship training via the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (FRACGP) or the Australian College of Rural and Remote Medicine (FACRRM).

If you’re looking to advance your career in General Practice medicine, Elective Recruitment would love to help you map the next steps in your career path.

As a medical professional, you thrive on serving your patients with comprehensive primary healthcare. Our General Practice roles deliver exceptional opportunities to connect with people from all walks of life, and provide much-needed care and expertise.

Elective Recruitment’s network of practices, medical centres and urgent care clinics provides a diverse range of continually evolving opportunities for GPs. There are endless possibilities for career advancement within our portfolio of highly regarded facilities, including the potential for skill development. In addition, General Practice roles typically offer rewarding remuneration and the ability to achieve an enviable work/life balance.

General Practitioners in clinics typically work as independent contractors and earn a percentage of billings. Remuneration is varied from clinic to clinic depending on the demographic, location, and practice structure.

Regionally based GP’s can also work in hospital settings where they can earn a hospital salary as well as income from the local practice.

GPs such as FACRRM trained GPs with advanced skills in Anaesthetics, Obstetrics & Gynaecology or Emergency Medicine can also work full time in hospital-based roles.
