Aged Care Podiatrist | East Melbourne

Full-Time or Part-Time | Up to $135,000 Package + Sign-On Bonus

MARS Recruitment is partnering with a well-established healthcare provider to recruit an Aged Care Podiatrist to join their growing Melbourne team.

If you're looking for greater autonomy, consistent working hours and the opportunity to build meaningful relationships with your clients, this could be the perfect next step.

Unlike many community roles, you'll work from one Residential Aged Care Facility (RACF) each day, allowing you to focus on providing quality clinical care without spending your day travelling between appointments.

Whether you're an experienced Podiatrist seeking better work-life balance or a new graduate looking for structured mentoring, this organisation offers an environment where you'll be supported to thrive.

What's on Offer

• Up to $135,000 package (FTE)
• Sign-on bonus (pro rata)
• Full-time or part-time opportunities available
• Average 5-hour clinical days
• One facility per day - no home visits or multiple locations
• Genuine clinical autonomy to manage your own caseload
• Dedicated administration team managing bookings, scheduling and paperwork
• Optional performance incentives for those wanting to increase their earnings
• Supportive leadership with ongoing mentoring and professional development
• Shadow sessions available before accepting the role

The Role

Working across Residential Aged Care Facilities throughout Melbourne's eastern suburbs, you'll become a valued member of each care team, delivering high-quality podiatry services that genuinely improve residents' mobility, comfort and quality of life.

This role allows you to spend more time with your clients and less time managing administration, giving you the freedom to focus on what you do best.

About You

You'll be someone who enjoys working independently while building lasting relationships with residents and facility staff.
You'll have:

• Current AHPRA registration as a Podiatrist
• A current Australian Driver's Licence
• National Police Check (or willingness to obtain one)
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
• A genuine passion for aged care

New graduates are encouraged to apply, with comprehensive mentoring and support provided from day one.

Why Consider Aged Care?

Aged care offers the opportunity to develop long-term therapeutic relationships, enjoy predictable working hours and make a genuine difference to people's everyday lives. With strong administrative support and a structured daily schedule, you'll have the autonomy to deliver quality care without the pressures often associated with private practice.
If you'd like to learn more before making a decision, shadow sessions can be arranged so you can experience the role firsthand.

Ready to Take the Next Step?

If you're looking for a role that offers genuine autonomy, consistent hours, and the opportunity to make a meaningful impact in aged care, we'd love to hear from you.
