About Us
When people talk about the Flying Doctor, thoughts generally turn to red-bellied planes undertaking rescue missions in the Outback. However, the current Victorian story is one that reflects today's challenges for people living in remote and rural communities across the state. While we do still transport people by air and by road, this work is complemented by a range of primary health services that address the most common issues people living in country Victoria face when accessing health care.

To be successful, you will need:
- Senior experience in People & Culture, OD or L&D
- Strong capability in culture, engagement, learning and inclusion
- Proven ability to lead strategic people initiatives in complex environments
- Excellent communication, analytical and change management skills
