Why work as an Overseas Nurse in Australia ?
UK needs and allows healthcare professionals come to the UK workforce. There has never been a better time to consider working in the UK as a doctor. The NHS currently has more than 9,000 vacant doctor posts.
The UK government, in its workforce plan for the NHS, has admitted it is reliant on recruiting overseas doctors until 2023 at least. It has removed its Tier 2 visa cap for doctors and nurses wishing to work in the UK
For international doctors, there are many benefits to furthering your medical career in the UK, which include:
- Work experience within one of the world’s largest healthcare systems
- Top quality training and development, including the opportunity to gain specialist UK Royal College qualifications
- Access to ground-breaking research
- Good standards of pay
- An opportunity to experience living and working in the UK
- Developing new skills and being introduced to new ways of working
- A diverse, multi-cultural population with a wide range of health needs
Not only is the UK attractive to overseas doctors, but the UK’s publicly funded healthcare system – National Health Service (NHS) – relies upon international doctors to bridge skill shortage gaps and meet the high demand for its services. Today, 26.3% of doctors licensed to practise by the General Medical Council (GMC) graduated from their primary medical qualification in an international country. A further 10.7 % of doctors obtained theirs from an EEA country outside the UK.
If you are considering working in UK, Emanate Resourcing can help. Our team is on hand at every step of the process from supporting you with your registration, finding a job, to helping you settle in and work in UK.

Life in Australia: location, education & career opportunities
Location, education and cost of living
Australia offers a relaxed outdoor lifestyle, diverse landscapes, as well as tropical and temperate climates year-round. The main cities and large regional towns provide an abundance of sporting, art and cultural activities. Australia’s strong sporting and education culture makes it a fantastic place to raise children.
A melting pot of different cultures
The Australian culture has evolved into its own unique multi ethnic cultural mix with a population of around 24 million. Approximately 43% of Australians were either born overseas or have at least one parent who immigrated to Australia. The population spread is urbanised with 67% of people living in main metropolitan cities.
Education in Australia – it’s one of the best
The Australian education system is renowned for its high academic standards. The public school system is free to Australia citizens, permanent residents and those on long term work visas. The school year starts at 4 years of age and runs for 13 years divided into primary, secondary and senior secondary. Australian universities are recognised internationally as providing high quality education enticing many students relocate from all over the world to Australia to study.
Cost of living
The cost of living in Australia is higher than the USA and lower than the UK. Sydney, being its most expensive city, is up there with London and New York in terms of cost of housing and general living expenses. The other main centres of Australia are generally more affordable places to live and work. The average wage in Australia is $74,000 per year with a minimum wage of $19.49 per hour. Some figures show Australians earn 25% more than their British colleagues.
Public and private healthcare jobs for doctors
There is a great deal of opportunities for Nurses to work permanently or locum in Australia. Australia offers medical specialists an interesting and diverse working environment, career development and excellent remuneration rewards. The positions available range in scope from large teaching hospitals to smaller community hospitals and private clinics.
Getting registered as a Nurse in Australia
Nurses aiming to register and work unsupervised as a specialist in Australia must have completed the required training and assessment to gain fellowship with the appropriate Australasian college in their chosen specialty (ie: radiology, emergency medicine, general medicine, psychiatry). If you have trained in Australia or New Zealand the process is straightforward.
English language and training requirements
Nurses must also satisfy the English language and training requirements to register with the Medical Board of Australia and the overarching registration body AHPRA (The Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency): https://www.ahpra.gov.au/Registration.aspx
The registration process for International Nurses wanting to work in Australia is complex and different requirements apply. Please contact us directly for further detail about your eligibility and the registration process.
Australian immigration
International Medical Graduates (IMG’s) who gain registration with the Medical Board of Australia are eligible for skilled migrant visas and potentially Permanent residency with Australian Immigration.
