About Us

At Upside Down Therapy, we don't do boring – we do different.

We're a passionate, family-owned paediatric Occupational Therapy practice where you'll enjoy flexibility, professional growth, and a bright clinic designed for both kids and clinicians to thrive.

Our purpose-built 400sqm clinic on Brisbane's northside is designed to inspire movement, play, and connection. With five sensory gyms, a flying fox, foam pit, climbing walls, and bright open spaces, therapy feels fun and engaging for both kids and therapists.

The Role

We're looking for an Occupational Therapist who enjoys working with children aged 2–12 years using child-led, play-based interventions, while collaborating with families, schools, and community partners.

Why You'll Love Working With Us

  • Up to $4,000 annual allowance for professional development, so you feel supported and confident in your therapy practice.
  • Rewards program designed to celebrate your contributions and boost your earnings.
  • Weekly clinical supervision with highly experienced therapists.
  • Fortnightly peer supervision to share ideas, workshop challenging cases, and collaborate with your team.
  • Fortnightly team meetings to stay connected, contribute ideas, and understand the day-to-day running of the practice.
  • Regular PD and team culture days to learn, share and grow together.
  • Structured career pathways with opportunities to supervise, lead, specialise, or design programs.
  • Flexibility to choose your days and shape your schedule in a way that works best for you.
  • A bright, purpose-built sensory clinic designed for kids and clinicians to thrive.
  • A practice that values neurodiversity and creating meaningful change.

Your Day-to-Day

  • Deliver individual, peer and group therapy sessions using sensory, motor and play-based approaches.
  • Collaborate with families, educators, and community partners to support children's goals.
  • Contribute to program design and clinical resources.
  • Mentor and support colleagues if in a senior role.

About You

  • Qualified Occupational Therapist (AHPRA registered) with full working rights in Australia.
  • 2+ years' experience preferred, but we welcome applications from passionate early-career OTs.
  • Interest or experience in sensory integration and play based interventions.
  • Strong clinical reasoning and a love of learning.
  • Collaborative, compassionate, and excited to contribute to team culture.

Our Culture

We are creative, kind, and values-driven. Our team supports each other, celebrates wins, and genuinely enjoys coming to work. Work-life balance matters — we offer flexibility so you can thrive both professionally and personally.
