Five steps, one continuous arc.

From the first conversation to the support that outlasts a placement, the same team carries you the whole way. Scroll to follow the arc.

  1. 01

    Initial consultation

    We start with a conversation, not a vacancy. What you want next, what you will not compromise on, and the shape of the role around it.

  2. 02

    Candidate sourcing

    We work our network for the right match, not the first available. A focused specialism, so the shortlist is doctors and health information management professionals who fit the brief.

  3. 03

    Credentialing & compliance

    AHPRA registration, indemnity, working rights and references, checked and in order before anyone starts. No surprises on day one.

  4. 04

    Placement & onboarding

    Contracts, rostering, travel and accommodation arranged so the first shift runs smoothly for the doctor and the facility alike.

  5. 05

    Ongoing support

    We stay in contact after the placement. The relationship is the point, and it outlasts any single role.

Why Arc Medical

A partner, the whole way through.

We place doctors and health information management professionals, and nothing else, which is why our knowledge runs deep and our relationships last. Here is what that looks like in practice.

ISO 9001:2015 certified

ISO 9001:2015 certified

Our quality management system is independently certified, so the way we place doctors is documented, audited and held to a standard.

  • 01

    Doctors and health information management

    Not nurses, not allied health, not admin. Two focused specialisms: doctor recruitment, and health information management.

  • 02

    Deep specialty knowledge

    We know VMO versus staff specialist, fellowship accreditation and how rural incentives actually work.

  • 03

    Personalised service

    One team that knows your name and your history, not a rotating queue of consultants.

  • 04

    Ongoing support

    We are there through registration, the move and the months after you start.

  • 05

    Nationwide network

    Sydney-led, with reach into every state and territory, metro to remote.

The things doctors and facilities ask first.

Who do you recruit?

Doctors across all specialties and grades, and health information management professionals. Not nurses, allied health or admin. That focus is why our specialty knowledge runs deep.

Do you help international medical graduates?

We support IMGs through AHPRA registration, the comparability pathways and the practical side of relocating to Australia.

Anything from a single day to several months, urgent or planned, metro to remote. We handle the compliance, contracts and logistics before you start.

How do you handle credentialing?

AHPRA registration, indemnity, working rights and references are checked and in order before a placement begins. It is built into our certified process.
