Let's start with what we know. An experienced Registered Occupational Therapist could have the pick of multiple jobs across the public and private sector, so, why would you choose to work with us?
We can't offer you financial incentives, small caseloads or a cruisy work day, but what we can offer is for you to be part of a dedicated, energetic and creative team of people who care about supporting people to remain living well in their homes. This role involves far less report writing than is required and a better work life balance than private sector work.
Yes, there are Enable applications but these will be contained within your work hours so you can leave work at work. We even have one of the only Advanced Practitioners in Wheelchairs and Seating in the country who can support your learning and development in this area of skill and a dedicated Occupational Therapy Professional Lead to also support you.
We are looking for either an experienced Occupational Therapist or will consider an exceptional new graduate.

What we are offering you is to become part of a service that cares about their community and their team. Our jobs are very serious and have huge impacts on the lives of others but along the way you will build relationships and comradeship with the team who will support you in your everyday work.
We are looking for 'can do' people who have a passion for doing whatever it takes to support our most vulnerable to live their best life. No two days will look the same, there will never be a shortage of work but we will have lots of fun along the way and provide a great team spirit.
