A range of rewards and benefits

This is subject to your position and qualifications and experience of course but we know you have a life outside work. Because of this, we've developed a benefits package so you can balance your work life with your personal life.

working hours

Do you have study, sporting or family commitments? Depending on where you work, we can generally offer you flexible working arrangements to accommodate your life needs (again, you'll understand this is subject to the needs of your work area)

superannuation

We contribute to various superannuation funds. You can choose the superannuation fund that suits you best through SuperChoice arrangements.

salary packaging

We also offer generous salary packaging options to all eligible employees. Our salary packaging provider McMillan Shakespeare (link) will advise you on customer tailored salary packaging programs and has individual information available at any time.

paid maternity leave

We also offer 12 weeks paid maternity leave for eligible full time employees or pro-rata for eligible part time employees.

health & fitness

Being located at the Parkville research precinct, we are fortunate to be amongst parks and gardens that are great to utilise for a walk or a run during lunch time!

childcare facilities

An excellent way to combine work and lifestyle to suit your needs. The MurdochChildrens encourages young parents to stay or return to the workforce by offering onsite child care facilities. This safe and child friendly facility combined with well qualified staff provides an excellent environment to care for your child during your working hours. Please note that there can be a waiting list depending on the age of your child. This facility is run by the Royal Children's Hospital.
