Monash Simulation delivers a wide range of simulation for health professionals at all levels (in-situ and Centre- based courses), designed to enhance individuals’ skills, inter-professional teamwork and the translation of these into optimal patient care. The Simulation Centre, located in Moorabbin Hospital, has recently been extensively renovated and now includes immersive simulation suites, as well as multiple debriefing and skills rooms and has the capacity and technology to run high level complex inter-professional and simulation education courses.
We utilise simulation to support our medical, nursing and allied health cohorts and ensure we deliver best practice training and development to our frontline clinical teams. As part of our journey, we’re now looking for a passionate and committed professional to assist our pursuit of excellence in the simulation field.

This is a unique opportunity to grow a simulation service across the health service by building collaborative partnerships with clinical and education teams focused on patient and service outcomes. The simulation service will utilise the full range of simulation modalities, and be leveraged by fostering strong teaching and research partnerships with other simulation centres and universities. You will be managing a team of dynamic nursing educators and sim technicians and fellows, managing simulation equipment and assisting with the design and provision of courses. Your role includes training and building the capacity of others to provide high quality centre-based and in-situ simulation across the network. This role is available at 0.80 FTE and could be combined with a fractional clinical position at Monash Health to a maximum of 1 FTE.
