Why O&G consultants are going locum ๐ฉบ
Locum work was once seen as a stopgap between permanent roles. In 2026, it's fast becoming a preferred career choice.
Here's why more O&G consultants are making the move:
โ Flexibility and autonomy. Choosing when and where to work, without the administrative or political pressures of permanent positions.
โ Lifestyle and wellbeing. Building the year around family, travel, or professional development, rather than the other way around.
โ Financial reward. Locum O&G consultants are earning $2,500 to $3,500 per day, with travel and accommodation often included. Regional placements can far exceed permanent salaries.
โ Purpose and variety. Exposure to new teams, systems, and patient communities across regional hospitals, city clinics, and teaching settings.
โ Career development. A wider range of clinical environments sharpens adaptability, decision-making, and leadership skills that are harder to build in a single long-term post.
We're currently recruiting for high-paying locum O&G roles across Australia.
