Melbourne VIC, Australia Brave Minds Therapy Services Full time $60,000 - $90,000 per year

We're an OT-led, values-driven practice supporting NDIS participants across Melbourne. We're seeking a compassionate, reliable Allied Health Assistant (AHA) to deliver therapy support under OT direction (no assessments or report writing).

Why join us

  • Free clinical supervision & mentoring with an experienced OT (ideal for OT students/early-career AHAs).
  • Clear therapy plans, structured sessions, and resources provided.
  • Flexible hours and a supportive, client-centred team.

What you'll do (therapy support only)

  • Implement 1:1 therapy programmes written by the supervising OT (ADLs, domestic skills, routines, community access, social participation, sensory regulation, executive functioning).
  • 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

  • Studying OT/Allied Health or prior AHA experience (NDIS experience valued).
  • Warmth, professionalism, strong boundaries, and clear communication.
  • Driver's licence and reliable car for home/community sessions.

Essentials — Clearances, training & documents

  • NDIS Worker Screening Check (current).
  • Working With Children Check (WWCC) — Employee or Volunteer, as applicable.
  • National Police Check (within last 12 months).
  • First Aid & CPR (HLTAID011/HLTAID009 or equivalent).
  • 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

  • Subcontract; flexible 1–3+ days/week (primarily weekdays, but open to weekends).
  • In-person sessions across Melbourne; brief admin can be remote.
  • Competitive hourly rate commensurate with experience; travel/notes by agreement.
