Occupational Therapist – Part-Time Hybrid | Pathway to OT Service Lead

Rediscover Physio – Coolum Beach, Sunshine Coast QLD

Part-time: approximately 2 days per week, with opportunity to grow

$45–$56 per hour + super + OT profit share

Build something meaningful—without starting from zero

Rediscover Physio is looking for an experienced Occupational Therapist to join our multidisciplinary allied health clinic in Coolum Beach.

This is more than a standard part-time caseload role. You will step into an established service with existing clients, upcoming assessments, active referral relationships and administrative support—while having the opportunity to help shape its future direction.

The role would suit an experienced OT who has considered establishing or growing a service of their own but would value beginning with:

- An established starting caseload
- Existing NDIS, aged-care and community relationships
- Upcoming functional and home assessments
- Clinic rooms and administrative support
- Internal referrals from our physiotherapy and exercise physiology team
- Marketing and business-development support
- A pathway to become Rediscover’s OT Service Lead
- Performance-based OT service profit sharing as the service grows

The role

You will initially work approximately two days per week, with flexibility around how those hours are structured.

The position is hybrid, combining work from our Coolum Beach clinic, community and home-based appointments, and suitable report writing or administrative work from home.

Your initial caseload may include:

- Adult and older-person occupational therapy
- NDIS assessments and ongoing intervention
- Functional Capacity Assessments
- Home-safety and functional assessments
- Falls prevention and maintaining independence at home




- Cognitive and neurological rehabilitation
- Selected paediatric and emotional-regulation clients, where aligned with your experience and interests

You will manage your own clinical caseload independently while contributing ideas and expertise to the ongoing development of Rediscover’s OT service.

There is no immediate requirement to manage other staff. As demand and the OT team grow, there will be an opportunity to progress into a formal OT Service Lead position with expanded leadership, service-development and profit‑sharing responsibilities.

Key responsibilities

- Deliver evidence-based, person‑centred occupational therapy
- Complete functional, home‑safety and capacity assessments
- Prepare clear, high‑quality clinical reports
- Manage ongoing NDIS, aged‑care and private clients
- Communicate effectively with families, referrers and support teams
- Maintain timely clinical notes and documentation
- Contribute to developing referral relationships and service opportunities
- Help shape future clinical projects, including cognitive rehabilitation
- Work collaboratively within our multidisciplinary team

About you

- Current AHPRA registration as an Occupational Therapist
- At least two years of occupational therapy experience
- The confidence to work independently
- Strong assessment, clinical reasoning and report‑writing skills
- Experience with NDIS, adult rehabilitation, aged care, community OT or functional assessment




- An interest in developing services and professional relationships
- Excellent communication and time‑management skills
- A current driver’s licence and access to a suitable vehicle
- Relevant screening checks, or willingness to obtain them

Experience completing Functional Capacity Assessments would be highly regarded. Cognitive rehabilitation, neurological rehabilitation, home modifications or paediatric experience would also be valuable but is not required across every area.

What we offer

- $45–$56 per hour plus super, depending on experience and responsibilities
- Performance‑based OT service profit‑sharing opportunity
- An established starting caseload
- Approximately two days per week, with scope to grow
- Flexible and hybrid working arrangements
- Administrative, marketing and business‑development support
- Modern clinic facilities in Coolum Beach
- A collaborative multidisciplinary environment
- Autonomy to contribute ideas and shape the service
- A defined pathway toward an OT Service Lead position
- Opportunities to develop new cognitive‑rehabilitation and community projects
