Your opportunity
You might think you already know a lot about Bupa. You'll know we provide health insurance and aged care services across Australia, and you've probably also seen our dental and optical clinics in your local shopping centres. But what you might not realise is that we also deliver health services in support of key government departments including delivering health services to Defence Force personnel and their families in Australia.

* Review and update of department SOPs
* Coordinate roster, staffing levels and supervision of the nursing and Defence Force staff, to enable the provision of high standard of health care
