Exercise Physiologist

Be at the heart of helping people live longer, healthier, happier lives – physically and mentally.

We recognise the growing need for exercise-based health interventions and are committed to bridging the gap in allied health services by developing a national network of clinics focused on functional health, chronic disease management, rehabilitation, and wellbeing. This network forms a part of our future vision, ensuring that clients receive high-quality, accessible, and innovative support when it matters most.

About the Role

As an Exercise Physiologist, you'll be a pivotal part of our team, shaping the future of allied health services. This is a patient-facing clinical role, where you will see clients seeking support for chronic disease, injury rehabilitation, and overall functional health. This is your opportunity to make a real difference and innovate in how exercise and movement are used to improve health outcomes across Australia.

In this role, you'll:

• Conduct comprehensive assessments of clients' physical health, movement capacity, and functional goals
• Develop and implement evidence-based, personalised exercise programs for chronic conditions, rehabilitation, and general wellbeing
• Maintain accurate and up-to-date documentation of client interactions and care plans
• Build and sustain collaborative relationships with referring healthcare providers to strengthen networks and support practice growth
• Coordinate with external providers to ensure seamless client care within established protocols

Your Opportunity

This is a permanent part-time position 2 days per week (0.4 FTE) and will be based at our new centre in Townsville, which is due to open doors, early November 2025.

Further to our current locations, there is future growth as we work towards our goal of 60 Bupa Mindplace clinics nationally, ensuring the access to support throughout Australia. If you're interested in being a part of the journey now or in the future, please reach out to discuss.

So Why Join Us?

• Solid client base – access a consistent flow of clients via our referral networks
• Financial security – employee engagement and systems ensure reliable scheduling
