Why join us

What you'll do (therapy support only)

  • Set up activities, model strategies, support skill practice, and complete brief session notes/data.
  • Communicate promptly with the supervising OT and follow clear professional boundaries.

Out of scope: assessments, report writing, behaviour plans, independent clinical decision-making, or goal setting without OT direction.

You bring

  • Warmth, professionalism, strong boundaries, and clear communication.
  • Driver's licence and reliable car for home/community sessions.

  • NDIS Worker Orientation Module certificate ("Quality, Safety and You").
  • Manual Handling & Infection Control training (or willingness to complete).
  • Professional Indemnity insurance (e.g., £5–10m/AUD equivalent) and Public Liability insurance.
  • Driver's licence, roadworthy vehicle, and comprehensive car insurance if transporting clients.
  • Right to work in Australia (passport/visa).
  • ABN (if engaged as a contractor); super/bank details if employed.
  • Vaccinations as required by sites (e.g., Flu/COVID-19), where applicable.

Hours, pay & location
