Paramedic salary in Australia, by state

A paramedic's salary in Australia depends on which state or territory ambulance service they work for and their classification. Each service pays under its own award or enterprise agreement, rising from trainee or graduate paramedic through qualified paramedic to intensive care and senior roles, with shift, weekend and public-holiday penalties and allowances paid on top.

Pick your ambulance service to see its current classifications and pay points — the same rates, penalties and allowances that power MyRoster's calculations. Work in a NSW Ambulance control centre without being a paramedic? Your award is here too.
