Notice: WA Health has transitioned to a new online recruitment system, Corporate Recruitment Advertising Management System (CRAMS), which has replaced the previous system, Recruitment Advertising Management System (RAMS). If this is your first application using this new platform, then an account will be automatically registered for you as you submit your first application. This platform, and your user account, is separate to the retired RAMS platform, and therefore requires different log in details.
If you have any questions or difficulties, please direct your queries to the contact person listed on the job advert that brought you to this site.

As well as undertaking a criminal record screening and integrity checking, you may also be required to undertake a working with children check (if required for the role) and a pre‐employment health assessment. We may ask referees to comment on your integrity and past demonstration of ethical behaviour. Please note that adverse information does not necessarily disqualify an applicant but will be considered as part of the appointment process.
This is an "open-ended" recruitment pool, and as such the following should be noted:
* The panel will monitor this recruitment pool for applications, and will assess on a regular basis.
* Suitable applicants will be placed in a pool from which appointments may be made when similar vacancies occur.
* Appointments may be made from this pool until 31/08/2027.
Whilst this selection process will initially be used to fill the above vacancy, it may also be used to fill other "similar" vacancies throughout the health service.

Both of these options remain valid for a period of twelve (12) months from when the authorised delegate endorses the recruitment decision.
