We focus our efforts on those who face the biggest inequities. To do this, we collaborate with the community, general practice, and other stakeholders to design solutions that make it easier for people to get the health care they need.

We will also use our knowledge and commissioning expertise to attract new funding partners to expand our impact.

Our purpose is to improve the health of communities in South Eastern NSW.

Purpose for this role

The Allied Health program leads COORDINARE in developing and implementing relevant strategies and targeted stakeholder engagement plans to support multi-disciplinary team care in primary health. The team is responsible for working with stakeholders in innovative ways to facilitate and integrate multi-disciplinary team arrangements to improve the patients’ journey through the health system and improve health outcomes. The team is responsible for the provision of practice support to primary and allied health practitioners, system redesign and other health system improvement projects, pathway optimisation, coordination of care, stakeholder alliances and communications.

The Multi-Disciplinary Teams Commissioning Coordinator is highly skilled in relationship management and are responsible for developing meaningful relationships and engaging with key stakeholders including, in particular, with allied health practitioners, General Practitioners and Primary Care Nurses and their teams in South East NSW.

This approach needs to be balanced with seeking out opportunities to collaborate, ensuring open lines of communication are maintained and issues are escalated as required.

To be successful as a Multi-Disciplinary Teams Commissioning Coordinator at COORDINARE, the following skills and experience are required:

Industry Experience: Experience in health/allied health or working in a primary care setting
