Job Description

ACEM Trainee (TS2 / TS3) - Emergency Medicine

Mater Private Hospital South Brisbane  •  South Brisbane, QLD

24 hour private emergency medicine training, right in the heart of Brisbane's biggest health precinct.

Private Emergency Health Australia (PEHA) delivers ACEM-accredited emergency medicine training across a network of private hospital emergency departments in Queensland and Western Australia. We're looking for ACEM trainees to join our team at Mater Private Hospital South Brisbane - an ACEM-accredited Stage 2 (TS2) and Stage 3 (TS3) training site operating a full 24-hour private emergency service.

Why train with PEHA at Mater Private Hospital South Brisbane

  • ACEM-accredited TS2/TS3 core EM training: bank college recognised training time in a true round the clock private ED, with the overnight and full acuity exposure that only a 24/7 department can offer.
  • Real supervision: low registrar to consultant ratios mean genuine 1:1 teaching and procedural opportunity, day and night.
  • Scale that matters: 363 beds, 10 operating theatres and 35+ specialised clinical services on one campus - a case mix and referral network few private EDs can match.
  • A precinct built for learning: based at Mater Hill, alongside the Mater public hospitals, Mater Education and the Translational Research Institute, and minutes from QUT and UQ.
  • A case mix that complements your public rotations: private payer cardiology, orthopaedic, general and colorectal surgical, and oncology presentations alongside undifferentiated emergency work.
  • Rosters that respect your life outside work: predictable shifts that protect real time for Fellowship exam study.
  • Brisbane, without the compromises: inner city convenience, a subtropical climate, and easy reach for trainees who want to stay close to family and specialist networks.
  • Remuneration and rewards: Above award level remuneration, with relocation assistance provided 

 

Train across the PEHA network

Here's what most ACEM trainees don't realise: ACEM accredited Training Stage 2 and Training Stage 3 experience is available inside a private ED and at PEHA, you don't have to choose just one site to get it.

•      Do TS2 and TS3 without changing employer: complete one stage at Mater Private South Brisbane and the other at Townsville Mater Private or Hollywood Private Hospital (Perth). One PEHA contract, one credentialing team, one supportive company, wherever your training plan takes you.

•      Continuity that counts: keep your leave entitlements, your induction, and your relationships with PEHA's Directors of Emergency Medicine Training as you move between sites.

•      Built around your training plan: our DEMTs work with you and your college mentors to sequence TS2/TS3 rotations so your Fellowship Written Exam prep and Fellowship pathway stay on track.

About you

•      Enrolled in the ACEM Training Program, currently at, or approaching, Training Stage 2 or Training Stage 3

•      Current AHPRA registration

•      A collaborative, hands-on clinician who thrives in a close-knit private ED team

•      Keen to broaden your case mix and build genuine 1:1 time with consultants
