We're looking for an experienced occupational therapist to join us as an independent subcontractor across the Gold Coast and Northern NSW region. This is a genuinely flexible mobile role that can be built around your lifestyle. You choose the referrals you accept, so you have real control over the clients you see, the areas you service and the days you work.

Our existing caseload spans:

Functional Capacity Assessments and report writing

Home modifications

Assistive technology assessment, trial and prescription

Wheelchair and seating assessments

Capacity building and daily living skills

Manual handling plans and carer training

$90 - $120 per hour for face-to-face services and non face-to-face work including report writing and clinical documentation
