As part of the ACT Emergency Services Agency, we work closely with the other emergency services 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

ACTAS operates a modern fleet of emergency ambulances, non-emergency patient transport vehicles and a range of specialist assets including 4WD, single response and multi-purpose vehicles. In addition to our ground vehicles, ACTAS also provides Intensive Care Paramedics to the SouthCare Toll rescue helicopter. Each month ACTAS attends to in excess of 5,000 incidents in the ACT region.

The location:
Well serviced by major shopping precincts, universities, sporting centres and an international airport, the Canberra region has everything that you need for you and your family to make yourselves at home. More than half of the ACT is protected as a nature reserve meaning that bushwalks, mountain bike trails, waterfalls, rivers, and spectacular lookouts are all within easy reach of the CBD. Want to venture further afield? The hustle and bustle of Sydney, the tranquillity of the NSW south coast or the excitement of the snow country are all within easy driving distance. More information on the region can be found at this website

The geographical environment within which the ACTAS works encourages short commutes to / from work, irrespective of which ambulance station you are rostered to work from on any given shift. As an ACTAS paramedic you will work from all stations across the ACT, the most remote of which is generally within thirty minutes commute from the Canberra CBD and well within the urban fringe.

We welcome people with experience from the community, public and private sectors able to meet the physical and aptitude capability requirements of this role.  We believe the more diverse our knowledge base is, the better our results will be. If you are an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander, a veteran, identify as LGBTIQ, or if you bring the life experience of a culturally and linguistically different background, we are especially welcoming of your application.

Eligibility/Other Requirements: ACTAS is seeking applications from experienced paramedics to join the service in the position of Intensive Care Paramedic 1 (ICP1). To be successful in your application you will:

  • Be a registered paramedic with the Paramedicine Board of Australia,
  • Have successfully completed a minimum of 12 months as a qualified paramedic (i.e. 12 months of unsupervised practice after achieving an Authority to Practice) – exceptions will be assessed on a case-by-case basis,
  • Be capable of rapidly assimilating into ACTAS (with due acknowledgement of your prior experience),
  • Be a team player capable of embracing the ACTAS leadership framework, and
  • Meet all criteria stated in the Position Description.

Successful applicants who commence with ACTAS will undergo the following training and assessment:

  • A period of induction training spanning approximately five weeks which will cover the clinical and non-clinical aspects of the role,
  • A period of supervised operational time spanning approximately three months, and
  • A range of theoretical and practical assessments including a written exam (completed with access to the ACTAS Clinical Management Guidelines), an urgent duty / Priority 1 driving assessment (conducted within emergency operations), and practical assessments within a realistic but simulated clinical environment.
