Goulburn | Up to 20 hours per week | No routine shift work
Are you a Registered Nurse looking for a role away from shift work?
Perhaps you’re ready for a change from hospital, aged care or clinical shift work and would like to use your nursing skills in a different environment.
We are currently seeking a Registered Nurse to join the team at Aviagen in Goulburn in a part-time occupational health role, working approximately 20 hours per week.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a nurse who enjoys working with people, health promotion and injury prevention and is looking for a role with more predictable hours and no routine on-call or shift requirements.
About the role
Working alongside the Occupational Health Nurse & Injury Management Specialist and Health & Safety team, you will provide practical occupational health and nursing support to employees across the business.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Conducting health assessments and supporting pre-employment and periodic medical assessments
- Assisting with vision screening, audiometry and spirometry once trained and competent
- Assessing and triaging employees presenting with injury, illness, pain or discomfort

About you
You will be a Registered Nurse with current AHPRA registration and sound clinical assessment and triage skills.

You will be someone who:
- Enjoys working with people
- Has excellent communication skills
- Is confident working independently
- Has strong attention to detail
