Job Summary

MAJOR UPDATE for UK & Irish-trained Doctors
General Medicine and General Paediatrics are NOW on Australias Expedited Specialist Registration Pathway.

From 19 January 2026 eligible internationally trained General Physicians and General Paediatricians can apply directly to the Medical Board of Australia without going through a full
Australian college assessment
.

This is a fast-track route to specialist registration and consultant-level practice in Australia.

Who is eligible
General Paediatrics
  • UK: MRCPCH CCT (from Aug 2007)
  • Ireland: MRCPI (Paeds) CSCST (from July 2010)
  • Recent general paediatrics practice required
General Medicine
  • UK: MRCP(UK) CCT in:
    • General Internal Medicine (from Aug 2007)
    • GIM Acute Medicine (from Aug 2009)
    • Approved dual CCT pathways (from Aug 2019)
  • Recent general medicine practice required
Why this matters
  • Direct specialist registration
  • Faster pathway
  • Consultant opportunities across Australia
  • Ideal for doctors from comparable health systems
  • No traditional specialist assessment bottleneck
Why are so many doctors choosing Australia
Because it offers what many health systems no longer do balance respect and opportunity.

Consultant-level medicine without burnout
Doctors come to Australia to practise proper medicine:
  • Safer workloads
  • Better staffing ratios
  • Real autonomy and clinical scope
  • Time to think teach and lead not just survive the shift
Worklife balance that actually exists
This isnt a slogan.
  • Short commutes
  • Predictable rosters
  • Annual leave thats encouraged (and taken)
  • Time for family travel and life outside the hospital
Exceptional lifestyle (not just beaches)
Australia offers:
  • Coastal regional and metro options
  • Affordable housing outside major cities
  • Excellent schools and childcare
  • Outdoor living warm climate and space to breathe
Many doctors arrive for a few years and stay.

Competitive remuneration strong conditions
  • Attractive consultant salary packages
  • Overtime on-call and relocation incentives
  • Superannuation leave entitlements and job security
  • Public health system with long-term stability
With expedited specialist registration the pathway has never been clearer or faster.
A genuine reset
For many doctors Australia represents:
  • A fresh professional chapter
  • Recognition for their training and experience
  • A sustainable career not endless service pressure
If youve been waiting for the right moment to consider Australia this is it.
