Paediatric Occupational Therapist

Hey, you
Are you nearing the end of your Occupational Therapy degree and starting to think about where to work next year? Could it be with us? Or, are you an experienced Peadiatric Occupational Therapist looking for a change?
We're on the lookout for a new Occupational Therapist to join us in providing the best evidence based therapy to children in Canberra to start in January 2026. We are a fast growing clinic and we're on the hunt for a fun, energetic and adaptable new friend to join our team
We could be a good fit if you looking for a team who is:
- Fun and Young - Physio Lauren will recruit you to 'Pub Fridays' on your first day
- Supportive - Mistakes are embraced The reality is you can't learn without them
- Evidence based focus - we're not into trial-and-error therapy interventions, we want to know the 'why' behind it.
About Our Clinic
We are on a mission to raise the bar of Paediatric Therapy in Canberra. With the changes coming to the NDIS and the demand for high quality OT only increasing, we are making changes to the way we implement therapy to ensure that all the children we see are getting high quality care that leads to measurable results.
We have seen too many children participate in years of ongoing weekly or fortnightly therapy and have seen too many therapists get burnt out with the same caseload week in, week out. We provide our therapists with a varied caseload (with varied ages and varied diagnoses) to ensure our clinicians are constantly given opportunities to develop their skills.
Most of our appointments are clinic based, although we do some school or home visits from time to time. We've significantly reduced our school visits this year as we've endured too many small/loud/non-optimal therapy spaces that aren't conducive to reaching a child's therapy goals.
We are searching for a passionate Occupational Therapist who shares our excitement for clinically reasoned and holistic patient care to take on a diverse case load of children with disability, developmental delay and continence concerns.
Full training and support for the role will be provided. Both Established OTs and new graduate OT's are encouraged to apply for the role.
About the Role
This is no cookie-cutter Occupational Therapy job. You'll work closely with our existing team of Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists and Allied Health Assistants.
You will be:
- Assessing infants and children aged 0-7 with developmental delay, disability, continence concerns, fine motor concerns, social and emotional skill delay, sensory processing delays.
- Creating treatment plans based on assessment findings and parent goals to best support the child
- Liaising with Allied Health Assistants to implement therapy plans to better support children and provide more intense therapy to children to ensure they are progressing.
- Working collaboratively with physiotherapists internally, and other external therapists to provide collaborative therapy interventions to best support the child
- Developing Groups and Programs and overseeing their success to support more children to develop social and play skills
- Attending regular professional development courses, team training and weekly 1:1 mentoring to develop your skillset in whichever area brings you joy We are very supportive of therapists developing a niche and building their clinical skills in a specific area.
The hours? Flexible.
Work around school drop-offs, study timetables, or other commitments. Whether you're a parent returning to work or a keen surfer hoping to get to the beach every weekend, we'll work with you to make it fit. Once you're confident in the role, there's flexibility to work some hours from home too.
You'll Love This If You:
- Are comfortable communicating with children and families, can navigate upfront and sometimes tricky conversations.
- Are adaptable in your approach allowing you to pivot when therapy sessions don't go to plan
- Want a job that values life balance, education and career progression
- Are eager to grow your clinical skills and develop a caseload that suits your niche interest areas
- Are proactive, reliable, and just… fun to work with
- Experience in a similar role is great but not essential — if you're keen to learn, and good with people, we'll get back you.
What's In It For You?
- Total flexibility – around family, study or life
- Anything from 25-38 hours per week
- We wear activewear to work everyday - comfort, yes please
- We have a coffee break every morning at 9am - we're better people after coffee
- Our team have their lunchbreak scheduled at the same time (none of that work through lunch business)
- Leadership pathways and structured professional development – we schedule it in, so it actually happens
- We have scheduled admin time to ensure work stays in work time.
- Be part of a supportive, down-to-earth team
- Make the role your own and grow with the business
To Apply
We know applying for a new job can be scary - after all, everyone knows everyone in Canberra. Rest assured, we will be keeping all applications strictly confidential We also know that sometimes you can start at a workplace that just isn't a good fit - we won't judge if you've only been in your current role for a couple of months If you have any questions about our workplace or the role, please don't hesitate to reach out We also welcome applicants to come into our clinic and shadow a day in the life to ensure we are a good fit
Please note: We are only able to accept applications from therapists able to obtain an AHPRA registration.
To apply, send us your resume along with a brief cover letter to telling us a bit about yourself, what drew you to this role, and why you think you'd be a great fit for the team.
