At GenesisCare we want to hear from people who are as passionate as we are about innovation and working together to drive better life outcomes for patients around the world.
Care to join the team?
GenesisCare has an exciting opportunity for a compassionate and experienced Registered Nurse to join our team at Wesley Medical Centre in Auchenflower on a casual basis.
Working within our dedicated Radiation Oncology service, you’ll become part of a close-knit multidisciplinary team focused on providing high-quality, patient-centred care throughout each patient’s radiation therapy journey.
This is a great opportunity for an RN looking for the flexibility of casual work while continuing to deliver meaningful, hands-on patient care in a supportive clinical environment. Previous oncology experience is highly regarded but isn’t essential – our experienced team will provide support and training in Radiation Oncology nursing.
More specifically, you will:
- Provide high-quality nursing care, ensuring patients’ physical and psychological needs are supported throughout their treatment.
- Provide patient education and support before, during and following radiation therapy.
- Undertake direct patient care including wound management and medication administration in accordance with practice protocols.
- Effectively manage the nursing needs of patients attending the clinic each day.
- Work closely with radiation therapists, medical physicists, patient services and other members of the multidisciplinary team to support coordinated patient care.
- Ensure all patient interactions and clinical information are appropriately documented, communicated and actioned.
- Monitor and maintain procedures, protocols, practices and clinical guidelines in line with best-practice Radiation Oncology nursing standards.
- Follow medication management protocols and clinical governance requirements.
- Use ISBAR communication for patient handover and communication with relevant health and allied health services.
- Demonstrate reliability, flexibility and a commitment to providing an exceptional patient experience.
We’re interested in hearing from people who:
- Hold current AHPRA registration as a Registered Nurse.
- Ideally have a minimum of two years’ post-graduate nursing experience.
- Have previous oncology or cancer care experience, although this is not essential as Radiation Oncology nursing training will be provided.
- Have excellent interpersonal and communication skills and can demonstrate empathy and compassion for patients and their families.
- Have well-developed clinical judgement, analytical and problem-solving skills.
- Are confident in wound care management.
- Demonstrate a commitment to best-practice principles, quality improvement and the NSQHS Standards.
- Are committed to ongoing professional development and learning.
Benefits of joining our team:
- Enjoy the flexibility of a casual nursing position.

- No night shifts – enjoy a better work/life balance.
- Have the time to provide personalised, high-quality care and build meaningful relationships with patients throughout their treatment.
- Access internal and external training and development opportunities.
- Uniform provided following the probationary period.
- Be part of a collaborative and supportive national healthcare community.
- Access employee benefits including Qantas membership discounts, gym and swim membership discounts, Bupa discounts and Flare benefits.
