So… what can we offer you?
A flexible work philosophy
We offer genuine work-life balance and the flexibility to perform at your best within an industry-leading private practice environment. We can accommodate the way you choose to work, whether that means utilising telehealth services, flexible leave arrangements, working from home when needed, and part/full time hours across our 6 locations at Boronia, Bundoora, Dandenong, Geelong, Hoppers Crossing and St Albans.
Attractive remuneration
We offer well above-market remuneration and uncapped earning potential. Further increases in our standard (already very attractive) remuneration packages are possible based on clinical performance. We make it our business to support the development of our people and those who embrace that opportunity typically attain an increased rate of remuneration in the first 1-2 years of working with Advance. Our belief is that the right people are worth rewarding, and we strive to keep our team feeling valued and satisfied.
An established referral base providing challenging and stimulating work
Over 25 years we have developed extensive networks with clients, referrers and payers. We have a robust referral base offering a diverse caseload in both individual and group settings. We are preferred providers of multi-disciplinary pain management services (Network Pain Management) for TAC/WorkSafe and have similar relationships with a wide variety of employers, insurers and referrer groups.
A centre for innovation
Our research programs are world-class, having evolved over a 25 year interaction between clinical experts and high level academics.
We undertake innovative research programs designed to address some of the most challenging problems in pain management and to prime the next generation of leading health professionals.
Advance Health offer opportunities to participate in research, and so the potential for a career that straddles both clinical practice and research becomes a possibility. This ultimately paves the way for a broader skillset and advanced career development. Our nurturing and inspiring environment successfully integrates research into a clinical work role.
Becoming clinical research experts
Advance Healthcare fosters career pathways for clinical research experts, earmarking outstanding and enthusiastic candidates from within and outside the business. The unique potential for a career that straddles both clinical practice and research becomes possible at Advance, paving the way for progressive career development.
Our research opportunities include participating in clinical trials, research publications in leading scientific journals and practitioner sponsorship for research presentations at national conferences. Advance Healthcare offers fully-funded PhD scholarships to outstanding candidates through its academic-industrial partnership with La Trobe University. Advance Healthcare assists practitioners to identify, support and facilitate pathways in clinical research with a view to propel career success.
A commitment to lifelong learning
A key value at Advance is supporting our people to fulfil their potential. This begins with a comprehensive induction program to ensure you are primed and ready to commence clinical work by your start date. Our ongoing clinical education program includes face to face and virtual interactive education sessions, journal club as well as 1:1 and small group mentoring. The context for these sessions is the continually evolving clinical model, which is updated regularly based on the latest research literature.
Our practitioners also have the opportunity to participate and learn from our clinical research program by supporting existing projects in a research assistant role or providing treatment in our clinical trials. This preliminary introduction to research can be extended into mentoring from our Research Manager on writing papers and ultimately higher degree research supervision. We offer fully funded PhD programs including scholarships and project support to outstanding candidates.
A collaborative approach
We believe our patients can best be served with a multi-disciplinary treatment approach to pain management, combining a range of Allied Health and Medical Specialist services. We collaborate with regular team meetings, Microsoft Teams based case conferencing and shared clinical notes and documents through our front desk system, Nookal.
A rich and dynamic workplace
We embrace inclusion and diversity within our unique, non-hierarchical organisational culture. We encourage a fun and vibrant working environment with a strong social network including a range of events throughout the year to connect the team both between and within clinics. We have a high staff retention rate thanks to an appealing approach to work-life balance, a belief in autonomy and a common goal for the collective pursuit of excellence (not to mention the remuneration)! Individuals who share our vision for a tolerant, respectful, inclusive and socially responsible workplace bound by an unwavering passion for the effective treatment of clients belong at Advance Healthcare.
We know our people are paramount to our success.
