Move to Melbourne

Monash Health has over 40 locations throughout south-east Melbourne. Find out more about why we love to live and work in Australia’s sport and culture capital.  

Why Melbourne?

Situated on the traditional lands of the Kulin Nation, Melbourne – or Naarm, its traditional place name in Woi Wurrung language – is known to some for its fickle weather. But Australia’s most livable city offers much more than just four seasons in one day.

Days in Melbourne often start with coffee, and there are world-class baristas serving up cups of the city’s famous liquid gold on virtually every street corner.  

Once coffee is secured, many jump onto Melbourne’s public transport system to get where they need to go. Conveniently, many of Monash Health’s sites in south-east Melbourne are located only a short walk from tram, train and bus services. 

On the weekends, Melbournians are treated to a calendar packed full of world-class sporting events and festivals, including the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, the Australian Open tennis, Australian Grand Prix, the Melbourne Food and Wine Festival and of course the AFL Grand Final.  

Melbourne has a long tradition of immigration from all over the world, which means it is a melting pot of communities and is home to many different cultural celebrations, where everyone is welcome. 

Multiculturalism also plays a large role in Melbourne’s famous food scene. Whether it’s Greek food in Oakleigh, Indian in Dandenong, Vietnamese in Springvale, Lebanese in Brunswick or Italian in Carlton, Melbournians are never far from a five-star meal. 

The city of Melbourne has a lot to offer, with the serene beaches of the Mornington Peninsula and rolling hills of the Yarra Valley and Dandenong Ranges all within an hour’s reach.

There really is no city on earth like Melbourne.
Offering something for everyone, Melbourne’s rich culture and proud diversity makes it the ideal place to live and to work.
