We're partnering with a well-regarded Darwin practice looking for a Podiatrist to join their team.
The role suits clinicians who want breadth in their caseload, autonomy in their day, and a genuine lifestyle change - without giving up professional standards or support.
You'll be working across a patient mix you simply don't see in metro clinics: general biomechanics and routine care alongside high-risk diabetic foot management, wound care, and Indigenous health presentations.
It's the kind of caseload that fast-tracks a career.
- Why Darwin, why this role
- Clinical breadth - a caseload that develops you two to three years faster than an equivalent metro role
- Real lifestyle - 10-15 minute commutes, boat ramps 20 minutes from the clinic, and 30°C in July
- Financial upside - the NT government's remote-area tax offsets and lower cost of living stretch a salary meaningfully further
- Supportive team - you're not the only clinician; there's a multidisciplinary team around you and structured mentoring if you need it
- Modern clinic - current equipment, current software, none of the "make do" you might expect of a remote role
- What The Day Looks Like
- Comprehensive assessments, diagnoses and evidence-based treatment planning across a broad caseload
- Routine podiatry care - nail and callus management, general biomechanics, footwear advice
- High-complexity work - diabetic and high-risk foot assessments, wound care, offloading
- Orthotic prescription, fitting, and rehabilitation program design
- Patient education with a strong preventive-health focus
- Accurate clinical documentation aligned with AHPRA standards
- Participation in case reviews and team development
- Who We're Looking For
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Podiatry
- Current General Registration with the Podiatry Board of Australia (AHPRA)
- New graduates are genuinely welcome - structured mentoring and clinical supervision provided
- Cultural awareness and a respectful, patient-centred approach - you'll work with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander patients as part of the everyday caseload
- Working with Children Check, National Police Check, and NDIS Worker Screening (or willingness to obtain)
- The temperament for a bit of adventure - Darwin rewards clinicians who lean into it
- What's On Offer
- Competitive base salary + superannuation, structured to reflect the location and your experience
- Relocation support available for the right candidate
- Generous CPD allowance and dedicated study leave
- Access to Zone A remote-area tax offsets (talk to your accountant - they're meaningful)
- Modern clinic, high-quality equipment, and clinical software you'll actually enjoy using
- Flexible rostering and a genuine 4- or 5-day work week
- A clear career pathway with real clinical autonomy from day one
