What Sets Us Apart

We understand that not all Allied Health roles offer the same experience. Some can feel repetitive or isolating, with little support. At HB Rehab, we’ve created - purposeful work, real flexibility, and a connected team that trusts and empowers you to thrive. There are 14 of us on the team, and the vibe strikes the perfect balance between focused and fun. We work hard, support each other, and enjoy plenty of laughs along the way - because outstanding teamwork thrives when everyone feels comfortable and engaged.

What you’ll get

Tailored Incentives:
We know that no two people are the same. That’s why we offer customised incentives that align with your professional goals and performance - whether that's extra PD, bonus structures, or something more unique to you.

​

Extra Leave When You Need It:
We get it - life happens. Especially in today’s climate, it’s important to have support when you need time away. That’s why we offer additional sick leave to help reduce the pressure when illness hits home.

​

True Flexibility:
At HB Rehab, you run your own race. As long as client needs are met and contracted hours are fulfilled, you choose when and how you work.

Flexible hours between 7am - 6pm

Work-from-home options on Mondays and Fridays

Time in lieu available

Professional Development Without Limits:
We’re invested in your growth. There are no rigid budgets or red tape when it comes to PD. Let’s chat about where you want to go - and how we can help get you there.

​

Strong Clinical & Admin Support:
You’ll be backed by a passionate team of Clinical Leads, Admin Assistants, and an Allied Health Assistant,



all committed to making life easier for you and better for our clients. Plus, our Practice Manager keeps everything running smoothly - and yes, our Director gets in the trenches too when needed!

Positive Team Culture:
We believe culture is everything. Here, you’ll find:
Open conversations and shared learning

Respect for different perspectives

Team members who support each other - professionally and personally

Genuine camaraderie (yes, hallway chats about the weekend are a regular thing!)

The kids and adolescents we work with:
The most amazing part about being an OT is the people we work with! Our clients are aged 0-18 years old who have neurological conditions, physical disabilities including cerebral palsy and spina bifida, autism spectrum disorder, sensory processing differences, ADHD, dyspraxia, developmental and motor delays, learning and intellectual disabilities or behavioural and emotional regulation difficulties.
