You will apply your clinical expertise to support individuals recovering from injury, helping them navigate complex systems while empowering them to return to meaningful activities and employment.

You will manage diverse portfolios across multiple schemes including Workers Compensation, CTP, Comcare, Life Insurance, and NDIS, working within a multidisciplinary team. Opportunities may include performance management or compliance audits depending on experience.
