About Us
The OT Collective is a boutique, mobile paediatric occupational therapy service delivering OT to children and their families in their home, school and community across Tamworth and surrounding areas. We're a small, close-knit team of enthusiastic therapists committed to collaborating with children and families to enhance their engagement in day-to-day activities and life experiences — while making sure our team finds joy in the work and maintains genuine work-life balance. We're growing, and we're looking for a passionate, creative Occupational Therapist to join us.
The Role
- Conduct assessments and therapy sessions directly with children aged 0–18, delivering individualised treatment programs across a range of developmental levels.
- Prepare treatment plans and activities to achieve meaningful goals and outcomes for your allocated caseload.
- Support clients, families and key stakeholders to help each child reach their full potential in a way that is meaningful, holistic and evidence-based.
- Document client progress and provide feedback to the broader therapy team to help refine treatment plans.
- Actively participate in interdisciplinary learning, with opportunities to attend career development sessions and build insight into different therapy approaches.
- Work collaboratively as part of a small, supportive team.
- Deliver services in the community — homes, schools and preschools — with the flexibility to work from home when you're not with clients.
The Perks
- Flexible work — choose your own hours and days. Part-time or full-time is negotiable,
and work-life balance is genuinely a core value here, not just a line in an ad.
- Above-award wages, travel allowance, and an allocated work laptop and phone.
- Therapy start-up kit, plus ongoing access to the team's shared resources.
- Continuous career development, both internal and external, tailored to your interests, with regular supervision from your senior.
- Work from home on your admin and planning days.
- Diverse caseload — predominantly paediatrics, with the opportunity to work with adults too, if that's an area of interest.
What You'll Need
- Bachelor of Occupational Therapy & current AHPRA registration
- Current driver's licence and your own reliable vehicle
- Valid Working With Children Check (WWCC)
- Current CPR & First Aid certificates
- Qualified indemnity and other relevant insurances
- Strong communication skills and a genuine commitment to client-centred, family-focused care
- Flexibility to work across different settings — home visits, school visits, community visits, and work-from-home
Prior paediatric experience is a bonus but not essential — we're just as interested in your enthusiasm, values and commitment to families as we are in your years on the job.

If you're an OT who wants meaningful work, a team that actually backs work-life balance, and the autonomy to build a caseload and schedule that fits your life — we'd love to hear from you.
