The Position
Lead medical services across South Australia’s most expansive health region — the Eyre Peninsula and Far North.
The EDMS is a foundational leadership appointment, accountable to the Chief Executive Officer and a member of the LHN Leadership Team. The role sets the medical strategy across eleven hospital sites and one of the highest proportions of First Nations residents in the state.
Lead recruitment, credentialing and orientation of Medical Officers, registrars and locums across the LHN. Steward scope of practice under SA Health policy and support the regional workforce to achieve college and Medical Board competencies.
Own clinical governance for safe, high-quality medical care across eleven sites. Coordinate resident and visiting specialists, SMOs, GPs, SA Ambulance, SA Retrieval and Rural & Remote Mental Health — implementing the SA Health Clinical Services Capability Framework across a vast footprint.
Provide oversight and strategic direction for Clinical Trials and Research across the network, developing research governance aligned to the National Clinical Trials Governance Framework and building a learning culture in teaching and quality improvement.
Health Service
The Eyre and Far North Local Health Network stewards hospital, aged care, community, disability and mental health services for 41,000 residents across 337,626 square kilometres — from Cowell on the eastern Eyre Peninsula, west to the Western Australian border, and north to the Northern Territory.
The Location
Port Lincoln sits at the tip of the Eyre Peninsula — one of South Australia’s premier travel destinations and Australia’s seafood capital. Untamed coastline, immersive wildlife, white-sand beaches and cellar-door country roads sit alongside a strong, welcoming community. A rare place to lead a big region — and still be home for dinner by the water.
