Connecting Skilled Healthcare Professionals with the Right Opportunities
At City Country Health Recruitment, we don’t just “fill jobs.” We believe in placing the right people in the right roles — where they can truly make a difference, feel valued, and build a life they’re excited about.
We work across Australia’s healthcare system, helping nurses, doctors, physiotherapists, radiographers, speech therapists, OTs, exercise physiologists, mental health workers, and more relocate, migrate, or simply move into new roles.
And if you’re a healthcare professional migrating from the UK to Australia, we know what that leap involves. We’ve helped many people make the move — and we’ll walk with you every step of the way. Your expertise deserves the best opportunities—and we’re here to make that happen.
Comprehensive Healthcare Recruitment Across All Specialties
Our deep understanding of the Australia healthcare landscape allows us to provide specialised recruitment services across multiple healthcare disciplines. We recruit across:
Nurses
From emergency and ICU to mental health, aged care, theatre, and community roles — we know how crucial you are. We help both local Aussie nurses and UK-trained nurses who are moving to Australia or looking to relocate.
Doctors
GPs, hospital doctors, consultants, registrars, locums — whatever your specialty, we’ve got trusted connections with healthcare employers across Australia. For doctors migrating from the UK, we guide you through the registration, visa, and relocation maze.
Physiotherapists & OTs
With the growing demand for musculoskeletal and rehabilitation services, we connect physiotherapists with diverse opportunities in hospitals, outpatient clinics, sports facilities, and community healthcare settings. If you’re a physiotherapist looking to move to Australia, we can help with job placement, licensing advice, and employer introductions.
Ocupational Therapists
We support occupational therapists in migrating and finding fulfilling roles where they can make a meaningful difference in patients’ lives. From acute care to community rehabilitation and specialised services, we help OTs find the right fit for their career goals and clinical interests.
Speech Pathologists
There’s steady demand for speech pathologists across Australia — in paediatrics, aged care, disability, rehab, and schools. If you’re migrating to Australia from the UK, we’ll help you understand the process and get set up.
Exercise Physiologists
As preventative and rehabilitative healthcare continues to grow in importance, we place exercise physiologists in hospitals, sports medicine facilities, rehabilitation centres, and community health programs where they can apply their expertise in exercise prescription and health promotion.
Radiographers & Sonographers
X-ray, CT, MRI, ultrasound, nuclear medicine — we work with both public and private imaging providers. If you’re moving to Australia for the next chapter of your career, we help make the transition smoother.
Psychologists & Mental Health Workers
Mental health roles are growing across Australia. We place local and international clinicians into hospitals, community services, private practice, and school settings. For UK clinicians relocating to Australia, we’re here to help you land well.
We Know the Australian Healthcare System
We know this system inside out — the rewards, the challenges, the bureaucracy, the quirks.
Public vs Private
Public hospitals, private hospitals, aged care, community health — each has its own rhythm. We help you figure out where you’ll fit, whether you’re already here or migrating to Australia.
Metro vs Rural
Want to live and work in a big city like Sydney or Melbourne? Great. Want a rural or remote role where your skills are desperately needed (and often come with extra pay)? Even better. We’ll help you weigh up your options — especially if you’re relocating or moving across the world.
Registration
We know AHPRA. We know Medicare. We know how tricky the paperwork can be if you’re migrating to Australia from overseas. We’ll help guide you through the process.
Visa & Sponsorship
We stay up to date on skilled migration pathways and work with employers who can sponsor. We won’t lie — the visa process takes time, but we know how to get you on the right track.
How We Work
This is how we do things:
- We listen. We want to know what you’re really looking for — in your work and in your life — especially if you’re relocating to Australia and building a whole new chapter.
- We check the details. We make sure you’re qualified, registered, and compliant with Australian standards. We help fill in the gaps, especially for healthcare workers migrating from the UK.
- We match carefully. It’s not just about matching CVs to jobs — it’s about whether the team and the environment are the right fit, whether the move makes sense for your family, your lifestyle, and your goals.
- We stay involved. We’re still here once you’ve started your new job. We don’t ghost you once the contract is signed — we want you to succeed, especially if you’re new to Australia.
