What you'll be doing.

This position provides Occupational Rehabilitation Services to ISLHD staff. This position also provides practical guidance and assistance to management and staff participating in ISLHD recover at work programs. The aim of this support is to ensure injured workers are able to recover at work in a timely, efficient and sustainable manner.


A little about us.

ISLHD operate four hospital sites on Dharawal Country in the Illawarra: Coledale Hospital, Bulli Hospital, Wollongong Hospital and Shellharbour Hospital and Port Kembla Hospital.

With the ocean to the east and the escarpment to the west, there are also many benefits of living and working in the Illawarra. The contrast between mountains and beach gives the South Coast its own special charm. Life is lived at a slower pace, with mornings spent exploring cafes, eateries or food markets, and afternoons spent at the beach, on bushwalks or at one of many world-class wineries.

Fitness Passport - discounted gym membership that both you and your family can enjoy (eligible employees)
