Registrar positions are offered for 6 or 12 months, full time or job share commencing in February.
Job share positions are available on selected rosters, as not all departments can accommodate the flexibility of job share arrangements. These rosters will be clearly indicated and will require the job share partners to equally share the full time workload across a 4 week period (maximum). Job splitting is not available (eg: one partner works for 3 months, and then the other partner works the next 3 months) .
Please contact the RCH MWU to discuss the job share arrangements if you would like further clarification.
