About The Role
Work in a leading regional cancer centre with state‐of‐the‐art technology and a strong multidisciplinary team. Opportunity to contribute to advanced clinical care, research, and innovation in radiation oncology. Lifestyle: a stone throw from the Surf Coast, Bellarine Peninsula, and Great Ocean Road. Permanent full‐time opportunity (76 hours per fortnight).
Barwon Health's Cancer Services is a comprehensive, integrated service delivering world‐class cancer care to adults across Geelong and South West Victoria. Based at the Andrew Love Cancer Centre (ALCC), this locum opportunity offers the chance to work in a well‐established, multidisciplinary environment with a strong focus on patient‐centred care.
The radiotherapy service is one of four public providers in Victoria and is equipped with Varian planning software, three TrueBeam linear accelerators, a dedicated planning CT, and a superficial radiotherapy unit. The service collaborates closely with other public radiotherapy centres to deliver high‐quality, personalised treatment.
