About the Role:

Join a dynamic and highly regarded Community Care Occupational Therapy team within Community Health and Integrated Care (CHIC), where you'll make a meaningful difference in the lives of adults living across the ACT. Working in community health centres and clients' homes, you'll support people with a diverse range of neurological, orthopaedic, chronic and complex health conditions to maximise independence, safety and participation in everyday life. With opportunities to broaden your expertise through collaboration across specialised services, including aged care and chronic pain management, this role offers variety, challenge and genuine career development.

As an experienced Occupational Therapist, you will provide high-quality assessment and intervention for adults aged 18 years and over, using assistive technology, home modifications and self-management approaches. Managing a varied and complex caseload, you will work collaboratively with clients, families, carers and interdisciplinary teams to develop client-centred solutions that enhance independence and wellbeing. You will also contribute to service innovation, quality improvement, education and mentoring, helping to strengthen and advance community-based care.





We're seeking a motivated and adaptable clinician with strong clinical reasoning, communication and organisational skills who thrives in a cooperative workplace. You will be confident working autonomously while building effective relationships with a broad range of stakeholders and responding flexibly to changing priorities. If you are passionate about delivering evidence-based care, committed to continuous learning and keen to be part of a supportive team that values innovation, wellbeing and professional growth, we'd love to hear from you.
