There is a gym in Auburn with thousands of members and no physiotherapist.

The treatment room is secured. We are looking for the clinician who wants to build what goes inside it.

FitFoundry is a personal training business operating out of a large 24/7 gym in Auburn, in Sydney's west. From late October we are adding physiotherapy, so clients get diagnosis, treatment and training in one place instead of three. This is the founding clinical role. Not a seat in someone else's clinic. A room, a member base, and a genuinely blank page.

The role

● Build the clinical model yourself — session structure, treatment approach, how care is delivered. Your call.

● Treat gym and training-related injury in a full 24/7 facility, with real equipment for exercise-based rehab.

● Write the programming — warm-ups, cool-downs and progressive return-to-load plans, not a printed exercise sheet.

● Work alongside the training side so clients keep progressing after discharge instead of disappearing.

● Warm start — an existing PT client base, many training around an active complaint, plus free injury screens on the gym floor.

You

● AHPRA-registered physiotherapist, 2+ years experience.

● Strong strength and conditioning background. You understand load and progression, and you train yourself.

● Genuinely strong at programming — warm-ups, cool-downs and progressive return-to-training plans that people actually follow. Core to the role, not a nice-to-have.

● Outcome-focused — you back yourself to get people better and you measure it.

● Comfortable appearing in social media content for the brand. This is a real part of the role.

● Self-directed. You will be the senior clinician on site.

● Dry needling, cupping,



body tempering and similar are favoured but not required — if you want to add them, we will pay for the training.

Extra paid work, if you want it

Your diary will not be full early on. Rather than sit in an empty room, there is paid work available between clients — filming social content, writing blog and education pieces, and running open days, injury screening events and member workshops. Fixed fee per piece, on top of your session rate, entirely optional.

Who you would treat

● Anyone, not just gym members. No membership requirement, no gate fee, no surcharge for external clients.

● Medicare from day one — GP Chronic Condition Management Plan referrals with instant on-site claiming.

● All private health funds, instant rebates on site.

● WorkCover and NDIS on the roadmap once established. Experience in either is a real advantage.

The arrangement

● Subcontractor engagement, not employment. Own ABN, own AHPRA registration, own insurances.

● You make your own clinical decisions and you are free to work elsewhere.

● Paid per completed session, weekly. Rate discussed at interview.

● 1–2 days per week from late October, scaling with demand.

● We provide the room, equipment, software, booking, billing and marketing — plus funded professional development for the right person.

To apply

Send your CV and a short note covering three things: the most engaging gym-related injury you have managed and how you programmed the return to load, what you would design differently if the clinical model were yours, and how you feel about being on camera.

Shortlisted applicants will be asked to write a short sample program for a case we provide — under an hour, and we talk it through rather than mark it.

Pay: $50.00 – $60.00 per hour
