In line with Windermere Strategic Plan 'Doing It Better Together', we are seeking a Senior Paediatric Occupational Therapist/Key Worker to provide quality Early Intervention & Therapy services and display exemplary people leadership skills to be a positive and encouraging advocate for change.

Why work at Windermere?

We are committed to outcome-focused care for children, families and individuals and to making a positive difference in the community. As well as tailored support services for individuals and families, Windermere provides a varied scope of services to support disadvantaged and vulnerable people. Windermere offers a culture of flexibility, support and wellbeing.

Windermere cares about staff and strives for continuous improvement, which is why we regularly ask our staff and consumers about what we can do better. In our staff survey from May 2024, 90% of respondents said they were "proud to work at Windermere" and 89.7% feel "we are committed to diversity, equity and inclusion".

Now, let's talk about this exciting opportunity

Reporting to the Team Leader of EITS (Early Intervention & Therapy Services), you will join an enthusiastic and highly skilled team of Allied Health Professionals who provide a range of tailored services to children and youth aged 0-12 years. You will play a pivotal role in supporting the Team Leader through coaching and mentoring of other Allied Health Practitioners. As a Senior Practitioner, you will have the opportunity to improve the knowledge, skills and capabilities of colleagues and families. You will have variety in your role with a mixture of staff supervision and consumer caseload to:

  • liaise and collaborate with a team of different discipline areas (occupational therapists, speech pathologists, early childhood education specialists, physiotherapists, psychologists, dietitians) to design and deliver comprehensive support for consumers;
  • actively model processes to improve others' skills by providing knowledge, constructive feedback, coaching and learning opportunities;
  • deliver a broad range of evidence informed intervention strategies, standardised assessments and parent education to increase communication and active participation in social and educational settings for children;
  • undertake face to face consultation and relationship building in natural environments, schools and kindergartens as well as our modern office facilities and therapy spaces;
  • provide key worker support and advice to families and children across different areas, including social skills, basic gross and fine motor skills, routine implementation and emotional regulation.

This is a full-time position working 38 hours per week; however, as we are a family-friendly and flexible workplace environment, we would be open to considering part-time (0.8 – 30.4 hours per week). We also offer a hybrid model of working remotely from home and meeting with consumers in their natural surroundings or within our offices in Narre Warren, Berwick, Cranbourne and/or Pakenham.

Key Selection Criteria:

  • Tertiary qualifications in Occupational Therapy and current registration with AHPRA
  • Minimum 3 years' experience managing, supervising and leading staff
  • Minimum 5 years' discipline specific clinical experience, with sound theoretical knowledge in paediatric practice 0-12
  • Demonstrated knowledge of typical development and common conditions such as autism spectrum disorder, cerebral palsy and developmental delay
  • Knowledge and skills in the assessment, implementation and evaluation of plans and services for children & families
  • Demonstrated ability to work effectively as part of a team as well as work independently, including office-based or remote off-site locations
  • Demonstrated ability to effectively manage use of time to meet service KPIs and provide a consumer-focused, high-quality and responsive service
  • Demonstrated knowledge in the prescription of assistive technology
  • Competence in the use of ICT to support with service delivery, such as telehealth.
  • Willingness to promote and support practices that are inclusive, culturally responsive, safe and accessible.
  • Willingness to undertake pre-employment screening - Working with Children, Police check and medical assessment.
  • Right to Work in Australia e.g. Australian Citizen or Permanent Resident.
