Careers at St John of God Subiaco Hospital

We are also the only private hospital in WA to offer all medical specialties (including intensive care, oncology, neonatal care and neurology), excluding only emergency and dialysis.

Be part of our transformation

Join us as we undertake the largest redevelopment in our hospital’s 128-year history. This visionary project responds to the evolving health care needs of Western Australia’s growing population and will ensure we remain a world-class hospital of clinical excellence into the future.

The redevelopment will enhance the patient experience, improve clinical outcomes, and expand capacity and services through new and updated facilities which include innovative technologies and equipment.
