GP / Fertility Specialist – Fertility & Reproductive Health

About Olia Fertility

Olia Fertility is a new, multidisciplinary fertility service designed to support individuals and couples earlier in their fertility journey.

Our model brings together medical, nursing and allied health care to provide personalised fertility assessment, investigation and evidence-based management, with a strong focus on identifying potential barriers to conception and optimising fertility before more complex treatment is required.

Olia will provide care from preconception and early fertility investigations through to ovulation induction, where clinically appropriate. When patients require advanced assisted reproductive treatment such as IVF, we will work alongside specialist fertility services while continuing to provide nursing, nutritional and psychological support throughout their journey.

Based in Far North Queensland, Olia is being developed as a telehealth-enabled service, allowing us to provide accessible fertility care beyond traditional clinic settings.

The Opportunity

We are seeking a General Practitioner with a strong interest or experience in fertility and reproductive health, or a Fertility Specialist, to join Olia during our setup and launch phase.

This is a flexible telehealth role and can be performed remotely from within Australia. There is no requirement to be based in Cairns.

Initially, the position will operate on a contract basis, with remuneration based on clinical service hours. Appointment availability can be arranged around your existing professional commitments, making the role particularly suitable for a clinician looking to incorporate fertility work alongside an existing practice or position.

As Olia grows, there is potential for the role to develop into a more substantial and potentially permanent position for the right person.

Importantly, this is also an opportunity to become involved at an early stage. The successful clinician will have genuine scope to contribute to the development of Olia's clinical pathways, protocols, referral processes and overall model of fertility care as we prepare for launch.

The Role

Working collaboratively with Olia's nursing and allied health team, you will provide fertility-focused medical consultations via telehealth.

Depending on your qualifications, experience and scope of practice, responsibilities may include:

• Comprehensive fertility and preconception consultations
• Reviewing reproductive, medical and lifestyle histories
• Ordering and interpreting appropriate fertility investigations
• Identifying potential factors affecting conception
• Developing individualised, evidence-based management plans
• Preconception counselling and fertility education
• Management of ovulation induction where clinically appropriate and within scope of practice
• Coordinating care with nursing, dietetic, psychological and other allied health professionals
• Identifying when patients require escalation or referral to specialist fertility and assisted reproductive services
• Providing ongoing medical support to patients progressing through fertility treatment
• Contributing to multidisciplinary case discussions
• Assisting with the development of clinical pathways, protocols and governance as Olia prepares to launch

About You

We would love to hear from clinicians who have an interest in providing thoughtful, accessible and evidence-based fertility care.

You may be:

• A GP with experience or a strong special interest in fertility, reproductive health, women's health or preconception care; or
• A specialist medical practitioner with experience in fertility and reproductive medicine.

You will hold current registration with the Medical Board of Australia/AHPRA and appropriate professional indemnity insurance for your scope of practice.

Experience managing fertility and preconception presentations is highly regarded, along with confidence interpreting fertility investigations and developing appropriate management and referral plans.

Just as importantly, we are looking for someone who enjoys collaborative care, communicates exceptionally well with patients and colleagues, and is interested in helping shape a growing fertility service.

Why Join Olia?

This role offers considerable flexibility. You can nominate appointment availability around your existing commitments and provide consultations remotely via telehealth.

You'll also be joining Olia at an unusually exciting stage. Rather than stepping into an established service with fixed systems and processes, you'll have the opportunity to contribute your clinical expertise to the way the service is developed from the outset.

We are building a collaborative model where medical, nursing and allied health professionals work together to make fertility care clearer, more accessible and better supported.

For the right clinician, there is significant scope for the role to grow alongside Olia.
