If you're tired of feeling like another number in a large organisation, this is an opportunity to join a growing independent Occupational Therapy provider where your contribution will genuinely be noticed.
The business has recently moved intobrand-recent premises in Wollongongand is continuing to grow its clinical team.
You'll work closely with the Director, another Occupational Therapist and expanding allied health support, including an Allied Health Assistant and dedicated administration team.
Your Caseload The caseload is entirelyadult and older adult focused, with approximately:
One-third psychosocial disability and mental health
One-third ASD, ADHD and cognitive presentations
One-third physical and neurological presentations
Clients may present with:
Multiple Sclerosis
Parkinson's Disease
Falls and ageing-related conditions
Mental health and psychosocial disability
ASD and ADHD
Cognitive conditions
Physical disability
Your work can include:
Functional Capacity Assessments
Home modifications
Assistive technology
Equipment prescription




ADL assessments
Housing assessments
Falls prevention
Ramps, rails and bathroom modifications
Most referrals are relatively straightforward, with opportunities to gradually build your exposure to more complex cases.
Less Driving, More Clinical Work: Around90% of referrals are within the Wollongong and Illawarra region.
Some days may involve multiple appointments, while others may be dedicated primarily to reports.
Flexibility Around Your Day: There is genuine flexibility around where you start and finish your day.
If your first client is close to home, you'll be able to complete reports from home before travelling directly to the appointment.
Your week may include:
Working from the clinic
Community appointments
WFH report-writing days
Starting or finishing from home depending on your diary
Support From Experienced Leadership: The Director brings more than 10 years of Occupational Therapy experience across rehabilitation, disability, neurological, physical and psychosocial presentations.
The team's approach is centred aroundcompassion, empathy and building a genuine therapeutic relationship with clients, rather than treating people as a referral number.
About You You'll ideally have:
AHPRA registration as an Occupational Therapist
A current driver's licence and vehicle
Full Australian working rights
Relevant screening checks including NPC, WWCC and NDIS Worker Screening Clearance
Early-career through to experienced Occupational Therapists are encouraged to apply.
