About the role

This is a full-time (part time considered), permanent role in a niche area of physiotherapy, working across Symmetry Physio clinics in Hoppers Crossing, Taylors Lakes and Ascot Vale. You'll manage a caseload of concussion (acute and persisting), vestibular, headache and whiplash presentations, including private, TAC and WorkCover patients. The role includes travel between clinics during the day and around two evenings per week, finishing up to 8pm. You'll manage your caseload fairly independently, but you're never on your own with it. The Concussion Central team is always a phone call away.

About us

Concussion Central is a physiotherapy service that focuses on concussion and vestibular rehabilitation. We started around 3 years ago and are now a team of five physios, growing quickly. Our lead physio has over 20 years of experience in neurological physiotherapy, and several of the team have worked in specialist concussion and vestibular clinics before joining us. We look at the whole picture with each patient, ie. the physical, psychological and social factors that are contributing to their symptoms, using education, manual therapy and exercise as our main tools.
