A local clinic feel, with a national team behind you

Many OTs have to pick between the personal feel of a small clinic and the learning and career structure of a big organisation. This role gives you both. You’d work in a community-facing practice where you know your clients and colleagues. You’d also belong to a large allied health network that invests in its clinicians, with mentoring, regular learning and clear steps for growth.

The practice

• Part of an established allied health group made up of local clinics across Australia and New Zealand
• Multidisciplinary clinics, so you can refer to and learn from physios, podiatrists, exercise physiologists and hand therapists
• A focus on adult and NDIS clients, with other age groups across the wider group
• A culture that puts teamwork ahead of individual agendas, with an emphasis on honest feedback and ethical practice
• Technology that supports clinicians rather than slowing them down

What you’ll be doing

• Assessing and supporting clients to build independence in daily living, work, home and community life
• Developing practical, goal-driven therapy plans with clients, families and carers
• Writing clear reports and progress notes that stand up to NDIS and funding body scrutiny
• Working alongside other disciplines so clients get joined-up care
• Taking part in case discussions and shared learning sessions with your peers
• Helping grow the OT service within your clinic over time

What we’re looking for

• AHPRA registered Occupational Therapist
• Experience with adult clients, or a strong interest in building it
• Confident working with NDIS plans and goals, or keen to learn quickly with support
• A clear communicator who explains things in plain language to clients and families
• Someone who likes asking questions, sharing ideas and learning from colleagues
• New graduates through to experienced clinicians welcome, with the package matched to experience

What’s in it for you

• Ongoing mentoring from experienced clinicians
• Fortnightly learning sessions led by researchers and senior clinicians, plus practical workshops
• Special interest groups, so you can connect with OTs and other clinicians who share your interests
• Structured programs for new graduates, and leadership programs for clinicians with a few years’ experience
• An annual conference with national and international speakers
• Career progression paths into senior clinical or business leadership roles
• Recognition and reward programs
• A friendly, flexible and supportive team
• Competitive package based on experience

Location

Brisbane’s inner north, in Windsor. It’s a relaxed, leafy suburb with a train station on the doorstep, so getting to work is easy. There’s a good run of cafes and local eateries nearby, and the city is only a short trip away.

If this sounds like your kind of practice, I’d love to have a confidential chat. Reach out to Camille at camille@mediix.com.au.
