We need people for all sorts of jobs

When you visit our hospitals or health centres, our medical teams care for and support you – but it takes a lot of other people to help us deliver great care.

Our IT staff keep systems running. Finance officers keep services funded. Clinical assistants, medical scientists, pathology collectors and support teams make sure care can happen safely and smoothly.

And you don’t always need a degree to work for Queensland Health. We have hundreds of roles where you can learn as you go.
