Why should you choose Australia as the next employment location in your professional career?
Amazing lifestyle – Australia is a BIG country and our coastline includes over 10,000 beaches - more than any other nation. This geography has influenced the way we live - outdoor and sporting activities take up much of our leisure hours; rather than apartments, most families live in a house with a yard for the children to play; parks and sporting fields abound; daytrips to the beach or bushwalking are commonplace weekend pastimes.
Australia's culture is strongly influenced by the youth and multicultural makeup of our population. Whether you're interested in theatre, shopping, galleries or Aboriginal art, you'll come to appreciate life from a new perspective. The choice is yours - you can be as active or relaxed as you want to be.
Employment - Australia has one of the best healthcare systems in the world. With the ideal balance of public healthcare (Medicare) and a thriving private health sector, employment opportunities for medical practitioners and allied health professionals are varied, secure and wide-ranging.
Climate and natural environment - Australia is a land of contrast and natural wonders of wide sandy beaches, rolling surf, amazing ancient rock formations, vast tracts of desert and unspoiled rainforests. Likewise the climate ranges from temperate in the south to sunny and tropical in the north to the dry extremes of the centre. But wherever you travel in Australia, you’ll find people enjoying life and having fun.

Candidate Testimonials
“I am currently an ICU and medical registrar from the UK working and living temporarily in Manly, Sydney. I managed to get my job with the help of Chandler Macleod Medical recruitment agency. I was extremely satisfied with the service they provided at every step of the application process. They helped me find the exact job I wanted in terms of the description and location. Through excellent communication and efficiency they also made the long-winded and potentially very stressful process of visa application quite easy and straightforward.
It must also be mentioned that via email and over the phone the agents themselves were very pleasant, helpful, and approachable. They also took myself and other UK and Irish doctors out for a few drinks upon arrival which was another bonus!”
Dr Sarah Clements - ICU Registrar
“I have recently commenced work as an ICU Registrar at Mona Vale Hospital. I gained this position with the help of Sian Darius-Dixon of Chandler Macleod Medical. I cannot stress enough how much I appreciated Sian’s help with the entire process of finding work in Australia. Her help was invaluable from the initial telephone conversation determining the type of work I was looking for, to the finalisation of the necessary documentation needed in order for me to be eligible for employment within NSW. At all times Sian was professional, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. I have no doubt that without her help I would have found the whole process extremely daunting. I feel that Sian interpreted my CV accurately and only nominated me for a position which I was well equipped to fill and would also provide me with the experience I was looking for.
I would strongly recommend anybody looking to spend a period of time working in Australia to contact Chandler Macleod Medical. I found the service I received to be exemplary.”
