About the New Graduate Role

We are looking for an enthusiastic New Graduate Physiotherapist to join our growing physiotherapy team in the South West of Sydney.

This is a full time, permanent employee position commencing in 2027 as part of our established New Graduate Program.

What You'll Get at Active Ability

Become a disability specialist

Disability is our core focus.



You'll develop expertise in supporting people with complex disability and neurological conditions, while having the opportunity to develop your own clinical interests.

A structured approach to professional development

Start your 5-year professional development program, attend at least four whole-team professional development events each year, participate in regular in-services and work towards an individual Professional Development Plan.

Mentoring from experienced clinicians

Learn directly from senior physiotherapists and directors through supervision, case reviews, shadowing, clinical skill development and professional development sessions.

A supported transition from university to practice

Our 16-week onboarding program is designed specifically to help new graduates transition into community-based disability practice, with ongoing support well beyond your initial onboarding period.

Meaningful, rewarding work

Build genuine relationships with your clients and their families, carers and support teams. You'll see the difference your work can make as clients work towards meaningful goals and greater independence.

Complex and interesting clinical presentations

Our caseload includes people living with conditions such as spinal cord injury, Parkinson's disease, motor neurone disease, Huntington's disease, cerebral palsy and rare neurological disorders,



alongside a broad range of other disabilities and chronic conditions.

Variety in your caseload

Our capacity-building approach means you'll work with a diverse client base rather than providing ongoing maintenance therapy. Our clients range from approximately 2 to 70 years old, and no two days are the same.

A genuinely multidisciplinary environment

Work collaboratively with occupational therapists, exercise physiologists, dietitians, speech pathologists, behaviour support practitioners, support workers, support coordinators, GPs and other stakeholders.

Flexibility and autonomy

You’ll work primarily in the community, with the flexibility to manage your own diary, work from home when appropriate and attend our team days once a month in the office with the rest of the team, while having access to a supportive team and management whenever you need assistance, no matter where you are.

Most importantly, you’ll be joining a team of passionate clinicians who genuinely care about the work they do and the people they support.

You won't be expected to know everything when you graduate. Our aim is to provide you with the clinical support, supervision, training and experiences you need to build a strong foundation for your physiotherapy career.

Remuneration will be based on experience and will be well above award rates.
