Get time back for the things you love outside of medicine, enhance your lifestyle, and reclaim work-life balance. As Australasia's largest medical recruitment agency we use our network to help you find permanent and locum job opportunities that cater to your lifestyle goals. But don't take our word for it, here's what our doctors are saying:
You can choose when you want to work, how long you want to work for and then you can choose when you go back. It’s enabled me to have more time to spend with the family.
That elusive, beautiful unicorn of a concept called ‘Work-Life Balance’ Turns out it exists after all!
"Great way to locum. The staff were very engaging and prepared for every little element of the locum placement. Attention to detail and professionalism was second to none"
I LOVED Bunbury, in Western Australia....The town is just the most beautiful little place right on the coast with such great weather, there were lots of great beaches and the team were really nice.

We donated $2 to Hand N Hand Peer Support. A mental health support service for doctors for every response recieved.
Our doctors frequently report that working as a locum has enhanced their lifestyle. In order to determine if this sentiment is universally shared among our locum doctors, we sent a survey to every doctor who locumed with us over the past year. We're committed to helping doctors build better careers and lead richer lives, and this survey was designed to serve as a tangible metric of our efforts. As part of our continual improvement process, we plan to carry out this survey on an annual basis, utilising the results as a benchmark for progressive enhancements.
In total, we donated $628 to Hand-n-Hand Peer Support. A free, confidential peer support for health professionals in Australia and New Zealand.
We conducted a comprehensive survey involving all doctors who have locumed with Medrecruit in Australia and New Zealand over the past year. To maximise response rates and get a more holistic view of the sentiment, we pledged a $2 donation to Hand-N-Peer Support, a mental health charity dedicated to supporting doctors, for each response received. Following the initial survey dispatch, we issued a reminder to ensure maximum participation. We collated the responses from both countries three days after the reminder was sent out.
In Australia, we sent the email out to 5,000 locum doctors. We had an open rate of 54.5%, we had 261 respondents In New Zealand, we sent the email out to 521 locum doctors , we had a 55 respondents, and an open rate of 62.4%.
