Position Vacant: Dietitian (Cairns)

Applications close 12th December 2025 - Commencing 19th January 2026

Health Management Dietitians are looking for a Dietitian with that extra bit of personality, someone with spark who loves people, thrives in a fast-paced private practice, and wants to build a career.

We’re a busy, well-established private practice with a strong referral base and a reputation for exceptional client care. You’ll step into a thriving caseload with plenty of support behind you.

What Your Role Looks Like

  • One-on-one consultations across a diverse client base

  • Opportunities to work with aged care facilities

  • Regular outpatient clinics

  • Presentations, workshops, and occasional article writing

You won’t be on your own. You’ll be joining a supportive team of six Dietitians, along with our Managing Director, Office Manager, and dedicated admin team who all have your back. We provide ongoing clinical training, regular mentoring, and structured professional development to help you grow, thrive, and feel confident in your role, backed by an annual professional development allowance to support your continued growth.

Extensive experience isn’t necessary, but a strong work ethic and drive to succeed absolutely are. We’ll teach you how to become the strongest private practice Dietitian possible, and after 12 months with us you’ll be more skilled, confident, and well-rounded than anywhere else in the country. While you don’t need prior private practice experience, you must be willing to adapt and embrace our successful and unique consulting style. We have a terrific culture and welcome everyone into the team.

Confident and ambitious new graduates are encouraged to apply!
