Are you an Adelaide-based
Occupational Therapist
looking for something different from the traditional Monday-to-Friday clinic role?
An established and growing allied health provider is seeking an Occupational Therapist to join its regional service through a flexible
Drive-In Drive-Out (DIDO) model from Adelaide to the Mount Gambier region
.
You'll travel regionally on a fortnightly rotation, concentrating your face-to-face client work into your onsite week before returning home, with flexibility to complete reporting and other responsibilities remotely.
Your
accommodation, regional travel and access to a vehicle while onsite are supported
, allowing you to work regionally without having to permanently relocate.
The Role
You'll join a multidisciplinary allied health team providing community-based Occupational Therapy services to an established NDIS caseload.
The caseload includes a strong paediatric component alongside adult participants, with exposure to both straightforward and more complex presentations.
Depending on your experience and clinical interests, your responsibilities may include:
Functional Capacity Assessments (FCAs)
Activities of Daily Living (ADL) assessments
Paediatric Occupational Therapy
Assistive technology and equipment prescription
Home and environmental assessments
Home modification recommendations
Capacity-building interventions
Community-based assessments
NDIS documentation and report writing
Working closely with participants, families, carers and other health professionals
There is flexibility to structure your caseload around your clinical strengths and areas of interest.
A Different Way to Structure Your Fortnight
This role offers a genuinely different working model for Occupational Therapists who value
autonomy and flexibility
.
You'll drive from Adelaide to the Mount Gambier region once per fortnight and complete the majority of your face-to-face appointments while onsite.




Rather than being locked into a traditional Monday-to-Friday structure, clinicians have flexibility around how they manage their hours across the fortnight.
Some clinicians prefer to maximise their client-facing hours while onsite, while others balance their onsite appointments with reporting and documentation completed remotely once they return home.
You'll be trusted to manage your own diary while meeting agreed clinical and productivity expectations.
What's On Offer?
$110,000–$120,000 + super
