A big part of the role will be
home modifications and finding practical solutions to complex situations
. You'll assess the client's functional needs, understand what's important to them and work out what changes, equipment or supports will make the biggest difference.
You'll also play an important role within the wider OT team, sharing your knowledge, supporting other clinicians and helping build a strong team culture as the service continues to grow.
Key responsibilities will include:
Completing comprehensive functional and home-based assessments
Assessing and recommending
home modifications
to improve safety, accessibility and independence
Prescribing appropriate assistive technology and equipment
Working through complex situations and finding practical, client-focused solutions
Developing and reviewing individualised intervention and care plans

About You
We're looking for a




Senior Occupational Therapist who brings valuable energy to a team and enjoys getting stuck into a problem.
You don't need to have every answer straight away. We're looking for someone who is curious, practical and enjoys working out how to make things happen.
You'll ideally have:
A Bachelor of Occupational Therapy or equivalent
Current AHPRA registration
Significant experience working as an Occupational Therapist
Strong experience with
home modifications and functional assessments
Experience prescribing assistive technology and equipment
Strong clinical reasoning and problem-solving skills
Confidence working autonomously in the community
Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
A genuine interest in supporting and mentoring other clinicians
A team-first attitude and positive approach
Current driver's licence and reliable vehicle
This role is about more than just clinical experience.
We're looking for someone who is
a great problem solver, enjoys working with people and brings positive energy to the team.
Someone who can walk into a challenging home modification assessment, look at the situation from a few different angles and come up with a practical solution.
Someone who enjoys sharing their knowledge, supporting others and being part of a team - but is also happy to roll their sleeves up and get things done.
Most importantly, you'll be joining an organisation that wants to
build something strong
, rather than simply fill a position. You'll have the opportunity to help shape the OT service, support the growth of the team and have a genuine influence on how the service develops.
