Consultant Child & Adolescent Psychiatrist

Global Medics is exclusively representing a highly respected international neurodevelopmental service as it establishes its first Australian clinic in Melbourne.

Following the success of its renowned clinics in the UK, the organisation is now bringing its evidence-based ADHD and Autism assessment and treatment model to Australia and is seeking a Consultant Child & Adolescent Psychiatrist to join its founding clinical team from February 2027!

The Opportunity
Working within a medically led multidisciplinary team, you will play a key role in delivering specialist care to children and adolescents with neurodevelopmental conditions.
- ADHD assessment, diagnosis and ongoing treatment
- Participation in comprehensive Autism assessments
- Diagnostic formulation and family feedback consultations
- ADHD medication initiation and ongoing review
- Collaborative care planning with psychologists and allied health professionals
- Longitudinal patient management rather than assessment-only work

The role commences at one day per week, with flexibility to increase sessions as your caseload grows.

Model: Face-to-face assessments with telehealth follow-up and medication reviews.
Engagement: Part-time / Sessional Contractor initially
Remuneration: To be discussed

Why This Role Stands Out
✅ Founding team opportunity within a new Australian clinic
✅ Backed by one of UK's largest neurodevelopmental services
✅ International network of consultant psychiatrists and paediatricians
✅ Research and academic collaborations with leading UK universities
✅ Ongoing mentorship from an internationally recognised Child & Adolescent Psychiatrist
✅ Evidence-based practice aligned with UK and Australian standards
✅ Low-risk outpatient caseload with strong governance and clinical support
✅ Regular CPD, mentoring, peer collaboration and case discussions
✅ Opportunity to grow your commitment and caseload as the service expands
✅ In house administrative support (booking, appointments, submitting claims, chasing invoices, sending/filing questionnaires etc)

About You
You will hold:
- Fellowship of the RANZCP (or equivalent specialist qualification)
- AHPRA Specialist Registration in Psychiatry
- Experience working with children and adolescents
- A collaborative and patient-centred approach to care

Experience in ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and broader neurodevelopmental assessment pathways will be highly regarded.
