The Opportunity

  • Work collaboratively with nurses, care staff, and external health professionals to achieve best-practice outcomes.

About You

  • Tertiary qualification in Physiotherapy and current AHPRA registration.
  • Demonstrated experience in aged care, rehabilitation, or community health.
  • Strong clinical reasoning, communication, and teamwork skills.
  • A proactive approach to quality improvement and person-centred care.
  • Current National Police Check and NDIS Worker Screening (or willingness to obtain).

Why Pennwood?

  • Competitive remuneration: Base salary circa $85,000 – $95,000, commensurate with experience.
  • Salary packaging: Up to $15,900 per year tax-free plus meal/entertainment card.
  • A dynamic role offering experience across multiple care models — from community-based transitional care to residential aged care and in-home support — providing holistic, person-centred care for older adults.
  • Professional development allowance and paid CPD leave.
  • Flexible work patterns within a supportive, multidisciplinary environment.
  • A stable, values-driven organisation backed by the Serbian Community Welfare Association of SA.
