A bit about the position

We are seeking AHAs across all levels of experience to join our team.

We offer flexibility with our positions wherever possible to ensure your work life balance is just how you like it. Variations in hours and location of work, and caseload variation is available for our team members.

We have developed pathways for individuals looking to develop their career as an Allied Health Assistant and pathways for those looking to progress into their therapy professions with supported supervision.

Pathways within our practice structure allow for motivated clinicians to progress into management positions in the future if desired.

Above award remuneration based on clinical competency and experience is available. Applications from early career and experienced therapists are welcome.

The position will involve assisting clients with therapy programs designed by the treating OT / Speech Pathologist.
