Engineering Department Restructure at Macquarie Hospital

Engineering Department Restructure at Macquarie Hospital

Thursday 8 January, 2026

A restructure within the engineering department at Macquarie Hospital, Mental Health Drug and Alcohol is being proposed by Northern Sydney LHD (NSLHD). This is your opportunity to have a say on how this affects you.
  • The proposal would involve the realignment of two Administration Officer (AO) positions which are currently 1 FTE AO3 and 0.2 FTE AO4.
  • As both AO positions are currently vacant due to resignations, the District is proposing to delete these positions and create a single AO Level 5 1 FTE position.
  • The District claims this would improve efficiency whilst lowering staffing costs.
