GP - Salaried Role | DPA | MM4 | Far West NSW

An iconic Australian rural health service is looking to welcome up to four UK-trained GPs to a base in Far West NSW, on the Expedited Specialist Pathway. This is a genuinely distinctive clinical and lifestyle opportunity — salaried employment with a well-respected not-for-profit, covering a vast stretch of outback NSW, with full relocation support, accommodation, and vehicle provided.

Location & registration status

• Suburb: Far West NSW (Rural)
• DPA status: DPA-approved 
• MMM classification: MM4

The clinic is based in a quintessential Australian outback town — a heritage-listed mining city with a population of around 17,000, set in the red-dirt landscape of Far West NSW. It's 5 hours by road to Adelaide (which is closer than Sydney in practical terms) and has its own regional airport with direct flights to Sydney, Adelaide, and Melbourne — so you're remote, but genuinely well-connected. The cost of living is meaningfully lower than anywhere on the east coast, and housing is exceptionally affordable. For GPs who want the real Australian outback experience — stars you can actually see, space, heritage architecture, a strong arts community — this delivers it in a way most rural postings can't.

About the role

This is a permanent salaried GP role with a well-established rural health service, based at a facility which covers around 640,000 square kilometres of outback NSW. The work is genuinely varied — standard GP consulting alongside the broader rural generalist scope you'd expect in this kind of setting, with on-site clinical support and a team experienced at inducting new GPs into outback practice.

Expected workload sits around 25–30 patients per day, which reflects the population density rather than being deliberately throttled — you'll see a genuine rural case mix, from routine consults through to more acute presentations.

Crucially, the base has supervision capacity for ESP (Expedited Specialist Pathway) candidates — increasingly rare in the Australian market and one of the main draws of this role for UK-trained GPs who need a supervised pathway to fellowship.

Package & earnings

• Salaried role — AUD $219,000 – $268,000 per year (scale to be confirmed per candidate)
• Relocation allowance up to AUD $30,000
• Accommodation covered by the employer
• Vehicle allowance included
• 3-year contract with 482 visa sponsorship

Employment model

Salaried permanent employment — no billings, no service fees, no private-practice administration. Straightforward employment terms with a well-established not-for-profit employer.

Visa & AHPRA support

Full end-to-end support through AHPRA registration on the Expedited Specialist Pathway (ESP), with on-site supervision capacity at the Broken Hill base. 482 visa sponsorship included as part of the 3-year contract, with a clear pathway to PR. Our team will handle the heavy lifting on AHPRA paperwork, timelines, and ECFMG/EPIC verification where needed, and the employer's workforce team is experienced at supporting international GPs through the transition.

Who we're looking for

• UK-trained GP with MRCGP (or working toward CCT — we can advise on timing)
• Suited to candidates on the ESP requiring supervision at a DPA MM4 location
• Interest in rural generalist practice and community-focused care
• Comfortable committing to a 3-year contract in exchange for the enhanced package
• Genuine interest in outback Australian living — this is Far West NSW, not a coastal posting

Even if you're still a year or two away from relocating, it's worth an early conversation — ESP and visa processes take time to do properly, and a 3-year contract is worth planning toward.
