The Opportunity

Kate at Carejobz Recruitment is inviting experienced Theatre Nurses for a Scrub Scout role, joining a great team in Canberra

I have recently placed a Scrub Scout Nurse into this team who emigrated to Australia, and they are absolutely loving the role, the support and the culture within the theatre team.

Feedback has been consistently positive around leadership, collaboration and feeling genuinely welcomed.

Key Requirements

• Minimum 2 years recent experience as a Scrub Scout in an acute hospital setting
• Current AHPRA registration as a Registered Nurse

• Excellent communication and teamwork skills
• Must be eligible to work in Australia (No sponsorship available)

What’s on Offer

• Health and wellbeing focus, including Fitness Passport
• Employee Assistance Program
• Ongoing professional development and learning
• Dedicated employee engagement and communication strategy
• 12 weeks paid parental leave

Why Canberra?

Canberra offers an exceptional quality of life for healthcare professionals. Short commute times, access to nature, excellent schools, and a growing food and café scene make it a genuinely liveable capital city. Housing remains more affordable than other major cities, and the healthcare sector continues to grow, providing long-term career stability.

Why This Role?

• Supportive and well-established theatre leadership
• Strong onboarding and team culture
• Permanent, secure employment
• A workplace where Scrub Scouts are valued, supported and retained

If you are an experienced Scrub Scout looking for a role where people stay because they are supported, this is worth a confidential conversation.
