Prepare to thrive in our team with 120+ Occupational Therapists nationally and a diverse multidisciplinary team by your side.

Why You'll Love our Graduate Program at ORS

  • Big team, big support: Work with 18 experienced OT's in the Sydney region and alongside Psychologists, Speech Pathologists, Dietitians, and Behaviour Support Practitioners. You'll never feel like the "only new grad in the room."
  • Reduced caseload: while you learn the ropes.
  • Formal Weekly 1:1 supervision (1 hour): Structured, consistent, and delivered by experienced clinicians to support you clinically and operationally.
  • Access to training: we have tens of hours of pre-recorded training accessible for you to upskill in the areas that most interest you.
  • A cohort of grads starting with you: Instant peers, friendships, and shared learning with training and networking in the new-grad program.
  • Flexibility: Choose full-time or part-time, flexible hours, WFH options, and even a compressed 9-day fortnight.
  • A dedicated manager to help you map out your career growth plan.

About the Role

As a Graduate OT, you'll have the opportunity to work with clients aged 0–65 in homes, schools, group programs, and the community. Your caseload can be tailored to your interests to make sure you are doing work that you find the most meaningful. You'll deliver assessments and interventions such as:

  • Functional capacity and sensory assessments
  • Assistive technology and home modifications
  • Skill and capacity building programs
  • You'll build strong client relationships, celebrate achievements, and see the impact of your work everyday.

Career Pathways & PD

At ORS, your career grows with you. We offer:

  • PD opportunities through two-monthly internal training and monthly special interest groups, with seven dedicated topics covering paediatrics to forensics (and everything in between).
  • Opportunity for bonus 'training leave' to support you to access external training.
  • Specialist pathways in paediatrics, sensory, mental health, home mods, PBS, early childhood, or rehab consulting.
  • Clear leadership and management pathways — many of our managers started as new grads.

Culture & Wellbeing

We're proud of our inclusive, supportive culture. That means:

  • A diverse, national team that values collaboration and excellence.
  • Work-life balance initiatives — hybrid work, flexible schedules, and RDO options.
  • Mental health and wellbeing support, plus Fitness Passport to keep you active.
  • An extra week of annual leave after 3 years (five weeks per year, every year).

What We're Looking For

  • Tertiary qualifications in Occupational Therapy + AHPRA registration (or pending).
  • A car & licence.
  • WWCC, NDIS Worker Screening, Police Check (or willingness to obtain).
  • A passion for learning, teamwork, and helping people achieve their goals.
