Job Description:

Supporting the leadership of a more connected future of care  

St Vincent's has been a leader in Australia's health and aged care landscape for more than 165 years. Since our founders, the Sisters of Charity, opened our first hospital in 1857, our services and people have been behind some of Australia's most important medical breakthroughs. Today, as we expand care beyond hospital walls and create more connected models of care, St Vincent’s is helping shape a better, fairer health and aged care system.  

We are looking for a special kind of person - a St Vincent’s kind of person. Someone who combines sharp thinking, good judgement and deep care for others.  

The Opportunity 

We are presently recruiting multiple Technical Field Engineer roles to bolster our existing, high performing NSW team, and in doing so, uplifting the overall capability of our business-critical National Service Management footprint. 

These vacancies have come about through a combination of internal career development opportunities and temporary secondments, supporting business critical projects as St Vincent’s progresses through an exciting period of growth and technology transformation. 

Consequently, we are currently offering a max-term contract until 26th of June 2027.

Key Responsibilities 

As key members of our NSW Digital & Technology operations, you will provide first and second-level technical support for computer and telephony systems, software, and hardware issues, both remotely and on site across our Hospital and Aged Care network. 

You will troubleshoot, monitor, and restore personal computers and devices connected to our network, whilst consistently delivering the highest levels of customer service; managing issues with efficiency, integrity and compassion. 

Key day to day accountabilities include: 

• Providing prompt and effective 1st and 2nd level support for all end-user IT hardware and software issues onsite and remotely 

• Respond to faults involving Windows desktop operating systems, Office 365 applications, network connectivity, printer queues, and device drivers. 

• Ensure equipment, stock, and spare parts are maintained and available at designated locations. 

• Provide support and incident response for nurse call systems, telephony handsets, and meeting room AV equipment. 

• Participate in the after-hours on-call roster (on call allowance and call out payments apply) 

About You 

As a dynamic and dedicated technology professional, you understand the critical role of IT operations within a multi-site healthcare environment such as St Vincent’s. 

You are customer centric, driven by a desire to quickly resolve technology issues whilst constantly identifying opportunities to minimise future disruptions and outages. Furthermore, you thrive in complex environments, quickly identifying the issue and translating complexity into clear advice, decisions and action. 

To be successful in these roles, it is anticipated you will possess: 

• A Cert IV in Information Technology Support, or at a minimum, a Cert III in Information Technology Support complimented with significant experience in a similar role 

• A minimum of 2 years’ experience in Telecommunications, Desktop, Field Engineering or other relevant IT roles  

• The ability to participate in our after-hours, on-call roster (mandatory for all Technical Field Engineers) 

• A current, valid driver’s license with 24/7 access to a reliable car (vehicle usage allowance applies) 

• Strong knowledge and skills in PC hardware and associated devices 

• Good understanding and associated skills in networking 

• Experience supporting AV systems, nurse call, telephony and comms room infrastructure 

• Working knowledge of Cisco, VoIP, DECT and Analog Phone setup and configuration 

Whilst not essential, previous exposure to healthcare operational environments will be highly regarded. 

Why Join St Vincent’s? 

At St Vincent’s, our people are inspired by a shared commitment to Compassion, Justice, Integrity and Excellence. We are building a better and fairer health and aged care system and believe our greatest strength lies in our people. 

You will join an organisation that: 

• Makes a meaningful difference in the lives of patients, residents and communities. 

• Supports innovation, collaboration and continuous improvement. 

• Encourages authentic leadership and inclusivity. 

• Offers the opportunity to work alongside some of Australia's most respected healthcare and executive leaders. 

• Provides flexibility and the chance to make a significant impact at an enterprise level. 

Additionally, in exchange for your contributions, you will receive: 

• A competitive base salary coupled with genuine work/life balance, a collaborative team environment and supportive leadership .

•  ‘Not for profit’ salary sacrificing (reducing your taxable income by $15,990 per annum) .

• A wide range of additional salary packaging options including vehicle novated leasing and a Meals & Entertainment card (reducing your tax by a further $2,650 per annum) .

• Employee Assistance Program for team members and their families and free annual flu vaccination. 

• Access to Fitness Passport discounted gym membership for team members and their families.

Above all this, St Vincent’s offers a supportive work environment and great community care spirit with the ability to visibly see your impact on the organisation and its services. 

Pre-Employment Checks

Registered Nurse – Emergency Dept – 5-10k Incentives Offered

Cowra Health Service

Nurse-led ED. General ward variety. Brand new Hospital. Real scope to grow.

About the role

This is a role for a Registered Nurse who has ED experience but is interested in broader clinical exposure, greater autonomy and the chance to make a visible impact. Roles are primarily based in the Emergency Department, with opportunities to rotate across other nursing areas and wards.

Cowra’s brand new ED has been designed to support patient flow from ambulance arrival through to reception, nurse assessment and clinical care.

With 9,223 emergency presentations in 2025, Cowra six-bed unit delivers activity and variety and includes monitored beds, back-to-base monitoring, new resuscitation equipment and ECG technology that supports cloud-based access to results.

Cowra ED is strongly nurse-led. Nurses are central to assessment, patient flow and care coordination, with opportunities to work to broader scope through dedicated pathways such as ECAT protocols. On each shift there are two Registered Nurses rostered, a Doctor present in the department, an anaesthetist on call, and access to CT, MRI and ultrasound.

The general wards component adds another valuable dimension to the role. You will have the opportunity to build capability in renal, perioperative, general wards, community and district nursing, outpatients, chemotherapy and rural midwifery pathways. For nurses who want to stay clinically sharp, broaden their assessment skills and develop confidence across more than one setting, Cowra offers a strong platform.

The team is close, collaborative and multicultural, with strong local connection. This is a community-based hospital in the truest sense — the people you work with also live locally, and the care you provide has a visible impact in the town around you.

Cowra is a beautiful regional town for families, lifestyle and community connection. It offers public and Catholic school options, sport, dance, music, drama, horse riding, swimming, fishing and water sports at Wyangala Dam, plus nearby national parks for four-wheel driving, bushwalking and camping. The town is also known for the Festival of International Understanding, the Cowra Japanese Garden and the Cherry Blossom Festival. Orange and Bathurst are around an hour away, Canberra is around two hours away, and the median house price is around $467,500.

Relocation support may also be available through the NSW Government’s Welcome Experience, a free service helping eligible essential workers and their families settle into regional NSW, including support with housing, childcare, partner employment and local connections.

If you are seeking nurse-led emergency care, general ward variety, genuine team support and the opportunity to make a real difference in a close-knit community, this is your chance to take the next step in your nursing career.
